أ1 ظَمِئَ, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. ظَمَأٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and ظَمْءٌ (TA) and ظَمَآءٌ (T, M, K) and ظَمَآءَةٌ, (M, K, TA,) in one copy of the K ظَمْأَة, (TA,) He thirsted, or was thirsty: (S, M, Msb, K:) or as some say, he thirsted in the slightest degree. (M, TA.) b2: Hence, (M,) ظَمِئَ إِلَى لِقَائِهِ (tropical:) He desired, or longed, [or, as we often say, thirsted,] to meet with him. (S, M, K, * TA.) 2 ظَمَّاَ see the next paragraph.4 اظمأهُ, (T, * S, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِظْمَآءٌ; (T;) and ↓ ظمّأهُ, (T, * Msb, K,) inf. n. تَظْــمِئَةٌ; (T, S;) He made him to thirst: (S, Msb, K:) [or to thirst most vehemently: or to thirst in the slightest degree: see 1.] b2: And (K) (tropical:) He made him lean, or lank, namely, a horse, (T, * K, TA,) by sweating him. (TA.) [See also 4 in art. ظمى.]5 تظمّأ He constrained himself to endure with patience a state of thirst. (A, TA.) ظِمْءٌ a subst. from ظَمِئَ (S, M, K) in both of its senses; (M, K;) [i. e.] it signifies Thirst: (MA:) [or most vehement thirst: or the slightest degree of thirst:] pl. أَظْمَآءٌ. (MA.) b2: [and (tropical:) Desire, or a longing, (or, as we often say, a thirsting,) to meet with a person. See 1.] b3: And (S, M, K) The time, or interval, or period, between two drinkings, or waterings, (T, S, M, K,) in the coming of camels to water: (T:) and the keeping of camels from the water [during that interval, i. e.] until the extreme limit of the coming thereto: (S:) pl. أَظْمَآءٌ. (T, S, M.) The shortest ظِمْءٌ of camels is that termed غِبٌّ, i. e., when they come to the water one day and return, and are in the place of pasture a day, and come to the water [again] on the third day; the interval between their two drinkings being termed a ظِمْء: this is during the greatest heat: but when Suheyl [i. e. Canopus] rises [aurorally, which it did in Central Arabia, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, on the 4th of August, O. S.], they increase the ظِمْء, so that the camels remain in the place of pasture two days, and come to the water on the fourth; and one says, وَرَدَتْ رِبْعًا: then follow the خِمْس and the سِدْس to the عِشْر: and the interval between their two drinkings is termed ظِمْءٌ, whether long or short. (T.) One says, مَا بَقِىَ مِنْ عُمُرِهِ إِلَّا ظِمْءُ الحِمَارِ, (T, S, * K, * TA,) meaning There remained not of his life save a little; [lit., save the period between the two drinkings of the ass;] (S, K, * TA;) because there is no beast that bears thirst for a shorter time than the ass; (T, S, * K, * TA;) for he comes to the water in summer every day twice. (T, TA.) b4: الظِّمْءُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The period from birth to death; (K;) or so ظِمْءُ الحَيَاةِ. (S, M, TA.) b5: ظِمْوٌ is a dial. var. of ظِمْءٌ. (T and M in art. ظمو.) ظَمِئٌ: see the next paragraph.

[of the former] ظَــمِئَةٌ, like فَرِحَةٌ, mentioned by Ibn-Málik, but generally held to be disused; (MF, TA;) and ظَامٍ, like رَامٍ; (TA; [app. for ↓ ظَامِئٌ;]) Thirsty: (S, M, Msb, K:) or most vehemently thirsty: (T, M, K:) or thirsty in the slightest degree: (M, TA:) pl.

(A, TA.) b3: And وَجْهٌ ظَمْآنُ (tropical:) A face having little flesh, (T, TA,) the skin of which adheres to the bone, and the sap of which is little: (TA:) an expression of praise: contr. of وَجْهٌ رَيَّانُ, which is [said to be] an expression of dispraise. (A, TA.) And فَرَسٌ ظَمْآنُ الشَّوَى (assumed tropical:) A horse having little flesh upon the legs: (T in art. روى:) and so أَظْمَى الشَّوَى. (T in art. ظمى.)

ظَمَآءَةٌ (assumed tropical:) Evilness of nature, of a man, and meanness of disposition, and deficiency of equity to associates: (En-Nadr, T, K:) originating from the fact that he who is given to drink, if of an evil nature, does not act equitably to his associates. (T.) ظَامِئٌ: see ظَمْآنُ, first sentence.

وم

أ1 وَمَأَ إِلَيْهِ, (S, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. وَمْءٌ; (S;) and ↓ اومأ, (S, K, which is the chaste word, MF,) inf. n. إِيمَآءٌ; (TA;) and ↓ ومّأ; (K;) He made a sign to him. (K.) أَوْمَيْتُ [for أَوْمَأْتُ] is disallowed: (S:) [but see what follows in this paragraph]. Lth says, that الايماء is the making a sign with the head or the hand, as a sick man does with his head for the inclination and prostration in prayer: (TA:) and اومأ بِرَأْسِهِ sometimes signifies He [made a sign with his head as though he] said “ No: ” Akh cites this verse: إِذَا قَلَّ مَالُ المَرْءِ قَلَّ صَدِيقُهُ وَأَوْمَتْ إِلَيْهِ بِالعُيُونِ الأَصَابِعُ [When the man's wealth becomes little, his friends become few; and the fingers, together with the eyes, make signs to him]; in which اومت is for اومأت. (TA.) b2: [For a further explanation of اومأ, and the manner in which it is said to differ from اوبأ, see art. وبأ.]2 وَمَّأَ: see 1. b2: ومّى بِالشَّىْءِ [for ومّأ: as there is no such root as ومى:] He took away the thing. (TA.) 3 فُلَانٌ يُوَامِئُ فُلَانًا, and يُوَائِمُ, [Such a one agrees, or vies, with such a one]. These two verbs are of two different dialects, or the former is formed by transposition from the latter. (K, TA.) b2: ISh quotes, فَأَنَا الغذَاةَ مُوَامِئُهْ meaning, accord. to Abu-l-Khattáb, “And I, in the morning, shall see him, or it: ” syn. مُعَايِنُهُ. (TA.) 4 أَوْمَاَ see 1.10 استومى عَلَى الأَمْرِ [for استومأ: as there is no such root as ومى:] He made himself master of the thing: like استولى. (Fr.) وَامِئَةٌ A misfortune; calamity: (S, K:) thought by ISd to be a subst. [not an act. part. n.] because no verb from which it could be derived is known. (TA.) b2: وَقَعَ فِى وَامِئَةٍ He fell into a misfortune or calamity. (S.) b3: ذَهَبَ ثَوْبِى فَمَا أَدْرِىمَا كَانَتْ وَامِئَتُهُ My garment is lost, and I know not what misfortune has taken it away: (M, K:) or, who has taken it. (Yaakoob, S.) The phrase without negation is also used. (L.) [See a similar phrase in art. لمأ.]

(L.) See also 3. b3: لَاذَ بِالقَوْمِ and بِهِم ↓ الاذ, He laboured, or strove, to overcome the people in any way; expl. by the words هى المداورة من حيث ماكان. (T, L.) [Perhaps المداورة is a mistake for المُدَارَاة; see 3: the same phrases being explained in the M by دَاَراهُمْ: but there is a near resemblance between the significations of المداورة and المداراة.]3 لاوذ القَوْمُ, (S, L,) inf. n. مُلَاوَذَةٌ and لِوَاذٌ, (S, L, K,) with which تَلْوَاذٌ is syn., (K,) The people had recourse, one to another, for refuge or protection or preservation; sought, or took, refuge, one in another; protected, concealed, defended, or fortified, themselves, one by another. (S, L, K. *) Agreeably with this explanation, (as some say, L,) لِوَاذًا is used in the Kur, xxiv. 63: were it from لَاذَ, it would be لِيَاذًا. (S, L.) b2: See 1. b3: لاوذ بِهِمْ, inf. n. مُلَاوَذَةٌ, He went round about them, or encompassed them. (Msb.)

(L, K.) Agreeably with this explanation, Zj renders لِوَاذًا in the Kur, xxiv. 63; saying that the meaning which he thus assigns to it is shown to be the true one by the words immediately following. (L.) 4 أَلْوَذَ see 1: b2: and 3. b3: الاذ بِهِ غَيْرَهُ [He caused another to have recourse to him or it for refuge or protection or preservation; to seek, or take, refuge in him or it; to protect, conceal, defend, or fortify, himself by him or it: or he protected, concealed, defended, or fortified, another by means of him or it].
