b4: And one says of camels, استطرنت المَرْتَعَ They chose, or selected, the pasturage: or they took the first thereof. (
TA. [See also 2, last signification but one.]) طَـ
ـرْفٌ The eye; a word having no
pl. in this sense because it is originally an
inf. n., (
S,
O,
K,) therefore it may denote a
sing. and may also denote a
pl. number [i. e. may signify also eyes]: (
S,
O,
Msb:) or, (
K,) as Ibn-'Abbád says, (
O,) it is a coll.
n. signifying the بَصَر [which has the
sing. and the
pl. meanings mentioned above, as well as the meaning of the sense of sight], and is not dualized nor pluralized: or, as some say, it has for
pl. أَطْرَافٌ: (
O,
K:) but this is refuted by the occurrence of طَـ
ـرْف in a
pl. sense in the
Kur xxxvii. 47 and xxxviii. 52 and lv. 56: (
O:) and though الأَطْرَاف is said to occur as its
pl. in a
trad. of Umm-Selemeh, this is a mistake for الإِطْرَاق: (
Z, O:) it is said, however, that its being originally an
inf. n. is not a reason for its not being allowable to pluralize it when it has become a
subst., and especially when it is not meant to convey the signification of an
epithet: (
MF:) [but it may be regarded as an
epithet; meaning seer, and, being originally an
inf. n., seers also; and this is the more probable because]
↓ الطَّوَا
رِفُ [is an
epithet used as a
subst., and thus] signifies the eyes, (
S,
O,
K,) as in the saying هُوَ بِمَكَانٍ لَا تَرَاهُ الطَّوَا
رِفُ [He is in a place in which the eyes will not see him]; (
S, *
O, *
TA;)
pl. of ↓ طَا
رِفَــةٌ. (
TA.)
b2: [Hence,] الطَّـ
ـرْفُ is the name of (assumed
tropical:) Two stars, which precede الجَبْهَةُ, (
S,
O,
K,) so called because (
K) they are [regarded as] the two eyes of Leo; one of the Mansions of the Moon: (

K:) [often called الطَّـ
ـرْفَــةُ,
q. v.:] the طَـ
ـرْف of Leo, consisting of two small stars in front of الجَبْهَة, like the فَرْقَدَانِ, but inferior to them in light, and having somewhat of obliquity; the Ninth Mansion of the Moon: (
Kzw in his descr. of that Mansion:) or the star [
app. lambda] in the face of Leo, together with that which is outside [
app. alpha] on the figure of Cancer: (
Kzw in his descr. of Leo:) or the bright star [alpha] on the hinder, southern, leg, or foot, [i. e. claw,] of Cancer. (

ـرْفٌ: see طَرِيفٌ, with which it is
syn., and of which it is also a
pl. طِـ
ـرْفٌ A generous horse: (
As,
S,
O,
K:) or,
accord. to
Er-Rághib, one that is looked at (يُطْـ
ـرَفُ) because of his beauty; so that it is originally مَطْرُوفٌ, i. e. مَنْظُورٌ; like نِقْضٌ in the sense of مَنْقُوضٌ: (
TA:)
pl. طُرُوفٌ (
As,
S,
O,
K) and أَطْرَافٌ: (
O,
K:)
accord. to
Az, an
epithet applied peculiarly to the males: (
S,
O,
K: *) or generous in respect of the sires and the dams: (
Lth,
O,
K:) or recently acquired; not of his owner's breeding;
fem. with ة, (
O,
K,) occurring in a verse of El-'Ajjáj:
Lth says that they sometimes apply the epithets طِـ
ـرْفٌ and طِـ
ـرْفَــةٌ as
syn. with نَجِيبٌ and نَجِيبَةٌ, in a manner unusual in the language: (
O:)
accord. to
Ks, طِـ
ـرْفَــةٌ is applied as an
epithet to a mare: (
TA:) and طِـ
ـرْفٌ signifies also a horse long in the legs or the neck, having the ears pointed, tapering, or slender at the extremities. (
TA in the supplement to this art.)
b2: And (
tropical:) Generous (
S,
O,
TA) as an

S,
TA) or to a man; (
O,
TA;) as also ↓ طَـ
ـرَفٌ: (
O,
K:) or a man generous in respect of his male and his female ancestors: (
K, *
TA:)
pl. أَطْرَافٌ: (
O,
K:) when applied to other than man, its
pl. [or rather one of its pls.] is طُرُوفٌ. (
K.)

ـرَفٌ, latter half.
b4: And رَجُلٌ طِـ
ـرْفٌ فِى نَسَبِهِ, (

tropical:) A man whose nobility is recent: as though a contraction of ↓ طَـ
ـرِفٌ. (
K,
TA.)

ـرْفُ الحَدِيثِ, (
K,
TA,) with kesr, (
TA,) [in the

ـرِفُــهُ). (

K.)
b2: See also طَـ
ـرِفٌ, in two places.
b3: And see طَرِيفٌ.
A3: Also Anything of the produce of the earth still in the calyxes thereof. (Ibn-'Abbád,
O,
K, *) طَـ
ـرَفٌ The extremity, or end, of anything; [as of a sword, and of a spear, and of a rope, and of the tongue, &c.;] thus
accord. to
ISd; but in the
K this meaning is assigned to ↓ طَـ
ـرْفٌ: (
TA: [several evidences of the correctness of the former word in this sense will be found in the present art.; and countless instances of it occur in other arts. &c.: it seems to have been generally regarded by the lexicographers as too notorious to need its being mentioned:]) and a side; a lateral, or an outward, or adjacent, part or portion; a region, district, quarter, or tract;
syn. نَاحِيَةٌ: (
S,
O,
Msb,
K:) and a part, portion, piece, or bit, (
syn. طَائِفَةٌ,) of a thing: (
S,
O,
K:) it is used in relation to bodies, or material things, and to times &c.; (
Er-Rághib,
TA;) and is thus used in the sense of طَائِفَة of a people, in the
Kur iii. 122; (
Ksh;) [and may often be rendered somewhat of a thing, whether material (as land &c.) or not material (as in the
T and
S voce ذَرْوٌ, where it is used of a saying, and as in the
S and A and
K in art. هوس &c., where it is used of madness, or insanity, or diabolical possession):] the
pl. is أَطْرَافٌ. (
O,
Msb,
K.)
b2: [Hence,] الأَطْرَافُ signifies The fingers: and [when relating to the fingers] has no
sing. unless this is used as a
prefixed noun, as in the saying أَشَارَتْ بِطَـ
ـرَفِ إِصْبَعِهَا [She made a sign with the end of her finger]: but the
pl. is said by
Az to be used in the sense of the
sing. in the following
ex. cited by
Fr, يُبْدِينَ أَطْرَافًا لِطَافًا عَنَيَهٌ [so that the meaning is, They show an elegant finger like a fruit of the species of tree called عَنَم]; therefore the poet says عَمَنَه [which is a
n. un.: but I think that it is much more reasonable, and especially as the verb is
pl., to regard the ه in this case as the ه of pausation, of which see an
ex. voce حِينٌ; and accordingly to render the saying, they show elegant fingers like fruits of the عَنَم]. (
TA.) It is said in a
trad. of Abraham, when he was a little child, جُعِلَ رِزْقُهُ فِى أَطْرَافِهِ [His sustenance was made to be in his fingers]; meaning that he used to suck his fingers and find in them that which nourished him. (
TA.)
b3: And [hence] أَطْرَافُ العَذَارَى (
tropical:) A species of grapes, (
A,
K,
TA,) white and slender, found at Et-
Táïf: (
A,
TA:) or, as in the
L, black and long, resembling acorns, likened to the fingers of virgins, that are dyed [with حِنَّآء], because of their length; and the bunch of which is about a cubit long. (
TA.)
b4: ذُو الطَّـ
ـرَفَــيْنِ is an appellation of A sort of serpent, (
K,) a sort of black serpent, (
TA,) or the [serpent called] أَسْوَد, (
O,) having two stings, one in its nose and the other in its tail, with both of which, (
O,
K,
TA,) so it is said, (
O,
TA,) it smites, and it suffers not him whom it smites to linger, killing at once. (
O,
K,
TA.)
b5: طَـ
ـرَفَــا الدَّابَّةِ sometimes means The fore part and the hinder part of the beast. (
TA.)
b6: and أَطْرَافُ الجَسَدِ (O) or البَدَنِ (
K) means [The extremities of the body; i. e.] the arms or hands, and the legs or feet, and the head: (
O,
K:) or, as in the
L, أَطْرَافٌ is
pl. of طَـ
ـرَفٌ as
syn. with شَوَاةٌ [
n. un. of شَوًى,
q. v.]. (
TA.)
b7: [And the dual has various other meanings assigned to it, derived from the first of the significations mentioned in this paragraph.] It is said in a
trad. (
O,
K) of the Prophet, (
O,) كَانَ إِذَا اشْتَكَى أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ لَمْ تَزَلِ البُرْمَةُ عَلَى النَّارِ حَتَّى يَأْتِىَ عَلَى أَحَدِ طَـ
ـرَفَــيْهِ [It was the case that when any one of his family had a complaint, the cooking-pot did not cease to be on the fire but he arrived at one of his two limits]; meaning (assumed
tropical:) convalescence or death; because these are the two terminations of the case of the diseased. (
O,
K.)
b8: And one says, لَا يَمْلِكُ طَـ
ـرَفَــيْهِ (assumed
tropical:) He will not have control over his mouth and his anus: referring to him who has drunk medicine or become intoxicated. (
AO,
ISk,

K.)
b9: And فُلَانٌ فَاسِدُ الطَّـ
ـرَفِــيْنِ (assumed
tropical:) Such a one is corrupt in respect of the tongue and the فَرْج. (
TA.)
b10: And لَا يَدْرِى أَىُّ طَـ
ـرَفَــيْهِ أَطْوَلُ, (in the
CK يُدْرَى,) [He will not, or does not, know which of his two extremities is the longer,] meaning (
tropical:) his ذَكَر and his tongue; (
S,
O,
K,
TA;) whence طَـ
ـرَفٌ is used as signifying (assumed
tropical:) the tongue: (
TA:) or the meaning is, as some say, (assumed
tropical:) which of his two halves is the longer; the lower or the upper: (
TA:) or (assumed
tropical:) the lineage of his father or that of his mother (
O,
K,
TA) in respect of generosity, or nobility: (
O,
TA:) i. e., which of his two parents is the more generous, or noble: so says
Fr. (
TA.)
b11: كَرِيمُ الطَّـ
ـرَفَــيْنِ means (
tropical:) Generous, or noble, [on both sides, i. e.] in respect of male and female ancestors. (
S,

b12: And أَطْرَافٌ means also (assumed
tropical:) A man's father and mother and brothers and paternal uncles and any relations whom it is unlawful for him to marry. (
Az,
S,
O,
K.)
b13: And (assumed
tropical:) Noble, or exalted, men: (
Th,
S:) or أَطْرَافُ الأَرْضِ means (
tropical:) the noble, or exalted, men, and the learned men, of the earth, or land: (
O,
K,
TA:) one of whom is termed طَـ
ـرَفٌ, or ↓ طِـ
ـرْفٌ. (
O, See the latter of these words.) And hence, as some explain it, the saying in the
Kur [xiii. 41, like one in xxi. 45], أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا أَنَّا نَأْتِى الْأَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ أَطْرَافِهَا (assumed
tropical:) [Have they not seen that we visit, or bring destruction upon, the land, curtailing it of its learned men?]; the meaning being, the death of its learned men: (
O,
TA:) or, as some say, [curtailing it of its inhabitants and its fruits; for they say that] the meaning is, the death of its inhabitants and the diminution of its fruits: (
TA:) or it means, curtailing it of its sides, or districts, one by one: (
Az,
O,
L:) Ibn-'Arafeh says that the meaning is, we lay open by conquest, to the Prophet, (نَفْتَحُ عَلَى النَّبِىِّ,) the country around Mekkeh. (
O,
TA.) [
b14: أَطْرَافُ النَّاسِ also means (assumed
tropical:) The lower orders of the people: but this I believe to be
post-classical.]
b15: طَـ
ـرَفَــىِ النَّهَارِ, in the
Kur 11:114, means غُدْوَةً وَعَشِيَّةً [i. e. Morning and afternoon]; by the former being meant daybreak; and by the latter, noon and the عَصْر [
q. v.], (
Ksh,
Bd,) or the عَصْر [only]. (
Bd.) And أَطْرَافَ النَّهَارِ, in the
Kur 20:130, means At daybreak and at sunset: (
Ksh,
Bd:) or at noon and at the عَصْر; so says
Zj: or,
accord. to
IAar, in the hours (سَاعَات) of the day: Abu-l-'Abbás says that it means طَـ
ـرَفَــىِ النَّهَارِ. (
TA.)
b16: [عَلَى طَـ
ـرَفٍ often occurs as meaning Beside, aside, or apart; like على جَانِبٍ, and على نَاحِيَةٍ: and in like manner the Persians say بَرْ طَـ
ـرَفْ.
b17: and مِنْ طَـ
ـرَفِ فُلَانٍ is often used as meaning On the part of such a one; but is perhaps
post-classical.]
b18: And you say, لِلْأَمْرِ طَـ
ـرَفَــانِ [meaning (assumed
tropical:) There are two ways of performing the affair, either of which may be chosen; as though it had two ends, or two sides]. (
TA voce صَرْعٌ.) And جَعَلَهُ مُطْلَقَ الطَّـ
ـرَفَــيْنِ (assumed
tropical:) [He made it allowable, or free, in respect of both the alternatives, either way one might choose to take]. (
Msb in art. بوح.)
b19: [And hence, perhaps,] طَـ
ـرَفٌ signifies also (assumed
tropical:) Anything chosen or choice:
pl. أَطْرَافٌ: [whence]
أَطْرَافُ الحَدِيثِ means (assumed
tropical:) Chosen, or choice, subjects of discourse; as also الحَدِيثِ ↓ طَرَائِفُ: and أَطْرَافُ الأَحَادِيثِ means [the same, or] colloquies of friends, consisting of mutual communications, and oblique expressions, and allusions: so says
ISd: and this is likewise a meaning of ↓ الطِّرَافُ and السِّبَابُ, which latter [properly signifying “ mutual reviling ”] is given in the
K as an explanation of the former. (
TA.)
b20: Also Flesh, or flesh-meat;
syn. لَحْمٌ. (
TA.) طَـ
ـرِفٌ, in the
K ↓ طِـ
ـرْف, but the former is the right, (
TA,) A male camel that removes from one pasturage to another; (
K,
TA;) not keeping constantly to one pasturage. (
TA.) And طَـ
ـرِفَــةٌ A she-camel that does not keep constantly to one pasturage; (
S,
O,
K;) that depastures the extremities, or sides, of the pasturage, and tastes, and does not keep constantly to one pasturage: (
Har p. 569:) or,
accord. to
As, that looks at the meadows (تَطْـ
ـرِفُ الرِّيَاضَ), meadow after meadow [
app. to pasture upon them in succession]: (
TA:) and ↓ مُسْتَطْـ
ـرِفَــةٌ, so applied, signifies the same as طَـ
ـرِفَــةٌ: (
TA, but not as on the authority of
As:) and ↓ مِطْرَافٌ, so applied, that will not feed upon a pasturage unless she choose anew, or take the first of, (حَتَّى تَسْتَطْـ
ـرِفَ,) another. (
As,
S,
O,
K.)
b2: And [hence (see 10)] طَـ
ـرِفٌ applied to a man signifies (assumed
tropical:) That does not keep constantly to a wife, or woman, nor to a companion: (
S,
O,
K:) and ↓ طِـ
ـرْف, thus
accord. to the
K, (
TA, [in which it is said that by rule it should be طَـ
ـرِفٌ, as above,]) a man who does not keep constantly to the companionship of one person, by reason of his weariness. (
K.) And ↓ مُتَطَـ
ـرِّفَــةٌ applied to a woman (assumed
tropical:) That chooses new ones of the men (تَسْتَطْـ
ـرِفُ الرِّجَالَ), not keeping constantly to a husband; as being likened to the she-camel termed طَـ
ـرِفَــةٌ. (
Har p. 569.)
A2: And طَـ
ـرِفٌ, applied to a she-camel, (
O,
K, [but in some of the copies of the latter, where it follows next after another explanation of the
epithet thus applied, mentioned above, “or,”])
accord. to
IAar, Whose fore part of the head has gradually shed its hair (الَّتِى تَحَاتَّ مُقَدَّمُ الرَّأْسِ فِيهَا, O) or whose fore part of her mouth has shed its teeth one after another (التى تَحَاتَّ مُقَدَّمُ فِيهَا,
K) by reason of extreme age. (
O,
K. [See 2, last sentence.])
A3: Also, and ↓ طَريفٌ (assumed
tropical:)
Contr. of قُعْدُدٌ; (
S,
M,
K,
TA;) i. e., as the latter is further
expl. in the
S, and each in the
M, having many ancestors, up to the greatest [i. e. most remote] forefather; and
J adds that sometimes it is used in praise: thus also
As explains النَّسَبِ ↓ طَرِيفُ:
accord. to
IAar, طَرِيفٌ signifies منحدر فى النَّسَبِ [
app. مُنْحَدِرٌ, as though meaning of long descent]; and he says that it is with the Arabs more noble than قُعْدُدٌ: the
pl. of طَـ
ـرِفٌ as meaning the
contr. of قُعْدُدٌ is طَـ
ـرِفُــونَ; and the
pl. of ↓ طَرِيفٌ in the same sense is طُـ
ـرُفٌ and طُـ
ـرَفٌ and طُرَّافٌ, the second and third of which pls. are
anomalous. (
TA.)
b2: [طَـ
ـرِفٌ seems also to have the
contr. meaning; or (assumed
tropical:) One whose nobility is recent: and the like is said of قُعْدُدٌ; that it has two
contr. meanings:] see طِـ
ـرْفٌ.
طَـ
ـرْفَــةٌ [A wink, i. e.] a closing of one of the eyelids upon the other: (
S,
O,
K:) or [a twinkling of the eye, i. e.] a putting the eyelids in motion or in a state of commotion. (
K.) One says أَسْرَعُ مِنْ طَـ
ـرْفَــةِ عَيْنٍ [Quicker than a wink, or a twinkling of an eye]. (
S, O.) And مَا يُفَارِقُنِى طَـ
ـرْفَــةَ عَيْنٍ [He does not separate himself from me during a wink, or a twinkling of an eye]. (
TA.)
b2: Also A red spot of blood, in the eye, occasioned by a blow or some other cause. (
S,
O,
K.)
b3: And A brand, or mark made with a hot iron, having to it no أَطْرَاف [or sides, or lateral portions], being only a line. (Ibn-'Abbád,

A2: And الطَّـ
ـرْفَــةُ A certain star or asterism (نَجْمٌ). (
K. [There thus mentioned as though different from the asterism commonly called الطَّـ
ـرْفُ, which I do not believe to be the case: see the latter appellation.]) طُـ
ـرْفَــةٌ A hurt of the eye, occasioning its shedding tears. (
K.)
A2: And Newly-acquired property; (
S,
O,
K;) anything that one has newly acquired, and that pleases him; as also ↓ أُطْرُوفَةٌ; (
TA;) a thing newly acquired; (
Har p. 54;) and a thing that is strange and deemed good; (Id. p.
615;) [a pleasing rarity;] a welcome, or pleasing, thing; (
KL;) and a gift not given to any one before; (
K, *
TA;) and a gift of which the recipient did not possess the like, and which pleases him; (
TA;) [generally, a novel, or rare, and pleasing, present; like تُـ
ـرْفَــةٌ and تُحْفَةٌ:]
pl. طُـ
ـرَفٌ. (
Har p. 32.) [See also طَرِيفٌ and طَرِيفَةٌ.]
طَـ
ـرَفَــةٌ A single tree of the species called طَـ
ـرْفَــآء,
q. v. (
AHn,
S,
O,
K.) طُـ
ـرْفَــى Remoteness in lineage from the [chief, or oldest,] ancestor: قُعْدَى is nearer therein. (
IB,
TA.) [See طَـ
ـرِفٌ.]
طَـ
ـرْفَــآء [
accord. to some طَـ
ـرْفَــآءٌ and
accord. to others طَـ
ـرْفَــآءُ, as will be seen from what follows,] A kind of trees, (
S,
O,
K,) of which there are four species, one of these being the أَثْل [
q. v.]: (
K:) [or it is different from the أَثْل: the name is now generally applied to the common, or French, tamarisk; tamarix gallica of Linn.: (Forskål's Flora Aegypt. Arab. p. lxiv. no. 181; and Delile's Floræ Aegypt. Illustr. no. 349:)]
AHn says, it is of the kind called عِضَاه; its هَدَب [
q. v.] are like those of the أَثْل; it has no wood fit for carpentry, coming forth only as even and smooth rods towards the sky; and sometimes the camels eat it as حَمْض [
q. v.] when they find no other حَمْض:
AA, he adds, says that it is a sort of حَمْض: (
TA:) the
n. un. is ↓ طَـ
ـرَفَــةٌ, (
AHn,
S,
O,
K,) [which is
irreg.,] and طَـ
ـرْفَــآءَةٌ, (
AHn,
O,
K, [in the
CK, erroneously, طَـ
ـرْفَــاةٌ,]) [and this requires طَـ
ـرْفَــآء to be with tenween, as a
coll. gen. n.,] or,
accord. to
Sb, طَـ
ـرْفَــآء is
sing. and
pl.: (
S, O:) or it is a
pl. [or
quasi-pl. n.] of طَـ
ـرَفَــةٌ, like as شَجْرَآءُ is of شَجَرَةٌ: (
S in art. شجر: [see شَجَرٌ:]) or it is
coll. gen. n.:
accord. to
IJ, the ء in طَـ
ـرْفَــآء is a denotative of the
fem. gender; but in طَـ
ـرْفَــآءَةٌ, the ة is a denotative of the
fem. gender, and the ء is augmentative. (

TA.)
b2: Also A place of growth of the طَـ
ـرَفَــة. (
TA.) طِرَافٌ The portion that is taken [

A2: Also, (
S,
O,
Msb,
K,) and ↓ طَا
رِفٌ, (

TA, that it may be either a
pl. or a
syn. of طَرِيفٌ,] Property newly acquired; (
S,
O,
Msb,
K;) as also ↓ طِـ
ـرْفٌ and ↓ طُـ
ـرْفٌ and ↓ مُطْـ
ـرِفٌ (
K) and ↓ مُسْتَطْـ
ـرَفٌ; (
TA;) [and it is said in one place in the
TA that ↓ مِطْـ
ـرَفٌ and ↓ مَطْـ
ـرَفٌ are
dial. vars. of مُطْـ
ـرِفٌ; but I think that this last word is probably a mistake for ↓ مُطْـ
ـرَفٌ;]
contr. of تَلِيدٌ (

S, O.)
b2: And عَيْنٌ مَطْرُوفَةٌ An eye of which the lids are put in motion or in a state of commotion, by looking. (
As,
TA.) [And] An eye, hit, struck, smitten, or hurt, with a thing, so that it sheds tears. (
S,
O,
K.) And ↓ طَرِيفٌ applied to an eye signifies the same as مَطْرُوفَةٌ [in one of these senses, but in which of them is not said]. (
TA.)
b3: مَطْرُوفَةٌ applied to a woman means
As though her eye were hit, struck, smitten, or hurt, with something, (
O, and
EM p. 83,) so that it shed tears, (
O,) by reason of the languish of her look; (
EM ibid;) and this is said to be its meaning in the saying of Tarafeh, إِذَا نَحْنُ قُلْنَا أَسْمِعِينَا انْبَرَتْ لَنَا عَلَى رِسْلِهَا مَطْرُوفَةً لَمْ تَشَدَّد (
O,
EM,) i. e. When we say, “Sing thou to us,”
she betakes herself to us in her gentle way, as though her eye were hurt by something, by reason of the languish of her look, not straining herself in her singing; but as some relate the verse, the word is مَطْرُوقَةً, meaning “ weakly: ” (
EM:) or it means whose eye the love of men has smitten, so that she raises her eyes and looks at every one that looks at her; as though a طَـ
ـرْفَــة [or red spot of blood], or a stick or the like, hurt her eye: (
Az,
TA:) or having a languishing eye; as though it were turned away, or back, (طُـ
ـرِفَــتٌ,) from everything at which it looked: (
IAar,
TA:) or as though her eye were turned away, or back so that it, or she, is still: (
TA:) or (assumed
tropical:) who looks at the men (تَطْـ
ـرِفُ الرِّجَالَ); i. e. (assumed
tropical:) who does not keep constantly to one; the
pass. part. n. being put in the place of the
act.; but
Az says that this explanation is at variance with the original purport of the word: (
TA:) or مَطْرُوفَةٌ بِالرِّجَال means (
tropical:) a woman who raises, or stretches and raises, her eye at men, (
S,
O,
K,
TA,) and turns away her look from her husband, to others, (
S,
TA, *) and in whom is no good: (
TA:) or (assumed
tropical:) who looks not at any but the men; (
K;) or مَطْرُوفَةُ العَيْنِ بِالرِّجَالِ has this meaning. (
AA,
TA.)

S,
O,

S:) or purchased from another part of the country, and therefore yearning for his accustomed place. (
IB,
TA.) مُتَطَـ
ـرِّفٌ A man who does not, or will not, keep constantly to an affair; [but I think that امر (which I have rendered “ an affair ”) in my original is evidently a mistranscription for امْرَأَة, i. e. a woman, or wife;] as also ↓ مُسْتَطْـ
ـرِفٌ. (
TA.) See also طَـ
ـرِفٌ.
