aor. ـُ
inf. n. عُرْبٌ and عُرُوبٌ,
accord. to
Th, and عُرْبَةٌ and عِرَابَةٌ [which

Msb;) [likewise] signifies he spoke clearly, plainly, or distinctly, after being barbarous, or vitious, in speech: (
Msb,
TA:) and ↓ عَرُبَ he spoke without incorrectness; (
Msb;) and [so اعرب, for] إِعْرَابٌ signifies the committing no error in speech: (
K,
TA:) and the expressing of meanings clearly, plainly, distinctly, or perspicuously, by words. (
TA.) [↓ عرّب, also, has a similar meaning:] it is said in a
trad., أَنْ ↓ كَانُوا يَسْتَحِبُّونَ أَنْ يُلَقِّنُوا الصَّبِىَّ حِينَ يُعَرِّبُ يَقُولَ لَا إِلَاهَ إِلَّا اللّٰهُ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ (

S, O.) And أَعْرَبْتُ الشَّىْءَ and اعربت عَنْهُ, and ↓ عَرَّبْتُهُ and عرّبت عَنْهُ, which last,
accord. to
Fr, is better than عرّبتهُ and اعربتهُ, I made the thing clear, plain, distinct, or manifest. (
Msb.) And اعرب عَمَّا فِى ضَمِيرِهِ He declared, or spoke out clearly or plainly, what was in his mind. (
TA.) And اعرب عَنْهُ لِسَانُهُ, and ↓ عرّب عنه, His tongue made clear, or plain, or spoke clearly, or plainly, for him: and عَمَّا فِى ↓ يُعَرِّبُ قَلْبِهِ لِسَانُهُ His tongue tells plainly, or declares, what is in his heart. (
Az,
TA.) It is said in a
trad., الثَّيِّبُ تُعْرِبُ عَنْ نَفْسِهَا, (
S,) or الأَيِّمُ, and ↓ تُعَرِّبُ,
accord. to different relaters, but some say the former only, (
Msb,) i. e. [She who has become a widow, or been divorced, &c., or she who has no husband, whether she be a virgin or not, or not being a virgin,] shall speak out plainly for herself [when demanded in marriage]: (
S,
Msb:) or الثَّيِّبُ يُعْرِبُ عَنْهَا لِسَانُهَا, so
accord. to
IKt, (
O,) or عنها ↓ يُعَرِّبُ, (
Mgh,
O,) so
accord. to A 'Obeyd, but, as
IAmb says, both are
dial. vars. of which neither is preferable to the other; and the meaning is [she who has become a widow, &c., her tongue] shall declare for her. (
O.) One says also, اعرب عَنِ الرَّجُلِ He spoke out, or explained, for the man. (
TA.) And عَنِ القَوْمِ ↓ عَرَّبْتُ I spoke for the people, or party; (
Fr,
S,
Mgh, *
O,
K;) and pleaded for them; (
Fr,
Mgh, *
TA;) as also أَعْرَبْتُ; but the former in this sense is better known. (
Mgh.) And اعرب عَنْهُ, and عنه ↓ عرّب, He pleaded his cause. (
TA.) and عَنْ حَاجَتِهِ ↓ عرّب He spoke and pleaded for the object of his want. (
A.)
b2: اعرب also signifies He was, or became, chaste, uncorrupt, or free from barbarousness, in speech; although not an Arab. (
Msb.) And لَهُ الكَلَامَ ↓ عَرَّبْتُ,
inf. n. تَعْرِيبٌ; as also أَعْرَبْتُ له,
inf. n. إِعْرَابٌ; I made the speech [that I spoke] clear, or plain, to him, so that there was in it no barbarousness. (
TA.) And مَنْطِقَهُ ↓ عرّب, (
S,
O,)
inf. n. تَعْرِيبٌ, (
K,) He made his speech free from error, or incorrectness. (
S,
O,
K.) And أَعْرَبْتُ الحَرْفَ I made the حرف [i. e. word] clear, or plain: or the ا in this case denotes privation, and the meaning is (assumed
tropical:) I removed its عرب, [
app. ↓ عَرَب, from this word as
inf. n. of عَرِبَ used in relation to the stomach &c.,] i. e. vagueness. (
Msb.) And اعرب كَلَامَهُ He made his speech free from error, or incorrectness, in [what is termed] الإِعْرَاب [here meaning what grammarians generally intend thereby, namely, desinential syntax, or the science of the various inflections of words, literal or virtual, by reason of the various governing words]. (
S, O.) [اعرب is also used by grammarians as meaning He declined a word; and أُعْرِبَ as meaning It was declined, or declinable; in these senses opposed to بَنَى and بُنِىَ,
inf. n. بِنَآءٌ: and the former also as meaning He analyzed grammatically, or parsed, a sentence: and the
inf. n. of the verb (
act. and
pass.) in these senses is إِعْرَابٌ.]
b3: See also 2, first sentence:
b4: and again in the first third part of the paragraph.
b5: إِعْرَابٌ also signifies The making [a person] to revert from, or relinquish, foul speech; (
K,
TA;) and so ↓ تَعْرِيبٌ. (
TA.)
b6: And The speaking foul, or obscene, language; as also ↓ تَعْرِيبٌ, and ↓ اِسْتِعْرَابٌ: (
O,
K:) thus it bears two
contr. significations. (
K,
TA.) One says of a man, اعرب [&c.], (
S,
O,) or اعرب فِى كَلَامِهِ, (
Msb,) He spoke foul, or obscene, language. (
S,
O,
Msb.) [Golius and Freytag have assigned this meaning to ↓ تعرّب also: the latter of them as from the
S and
K; in neither of which do I find it.]
b7: And The act of copulating: or the speaking of that act in an oblique, or indirect, manner. (
K.)
A2: and اعرب, (
S,
O,)
inf. n. إِعْرَابٌ, (
K,) He had a child born to him of Arabian complexion, or colour. (
S,
O,
K.)
b2: And He possessed, or acquired, or sought to acquire, horses, or camels, of pure Arabian race. (
TA. [See also 2, in the middle of the latter half; and see مُعْرِبٌ.])
b3: And إِعْرَابٌ signifies One's knowing a horse of pure Arabian race from one of mean race by his neighing. (
K.) And A horse's being known by his neighing to be of pure Arabian race, free from any admixture of other than Arabian blood: (
K,
TA:) [or his making himself to be known as such by his neighing; for] اعرب means he (a horse) neighed, and was consequently known to be of Arabian race. (
A.)
b4: And The making a horse to run. (
K.)
Accord. to
Fr, one says, اعرب عَلَى فَرَسِهِ, meaning He made his horse to run: but he adds that some say اغرب. (
O.)
A3: And إِعْرَابٌ signifies The taking as one's wife a woman such as is termed عَرُوبٌ [
q. v.]. (
K.)
A4: اعرب سَقْىُ القَوْمِ meansThe people's watering [of their camels], having been at one time on alternate days, and another time on the fourth day after that of the next preceding watering, then became, and continued to be, of one uniform way. (
S, O.)
A5: See also 2, last four sentences.
5 تعرّب He assimilated himself to the Arabs. (
S.) He (a man not of genuine Arabian descent) introduced himself among the Arabs, and spoke their language, and imitated their manner or appearance; [he became a naturalized, or an insitious, Arab; (see العَرَبُ;)] as also ↓ استعرب. (
Az,
TA.)
b2: He became an Arab of the desert; (
S,
Mgh;) he returned to the desert, (
Az,
Mgh,
TA,) after he had been dwelling in a region of cities or towns or villages and of cultivated land, and joined himself to the Arabs of the desert. (
Az,
TA.) Hence, تعرّب بَعْدَ هِجْرَتِهِ He became an Arab of the desert [after his flight, or emigration, for the sake of El-Islám], (
S,
Mgh,) returning to the desert. (
Mgh.)
b3: He dwelt, or abode, in the desert. (
O,
K.)
b4: See also 4, first sentence.
b5: تَعَرَّبَتْ لِزَوْجِهَا She acted in an amorous manner, or with amorous dalliance, and mani-fested love, to her husband. (
A,
TA.)
b6: Respecting a meaning assigned to تعرّب by Golius and Freytag, see 4, latter half.
10 استعرب: see 5:
b2: see also 4, first sentence:
b3: and the same again in the latter half of the paragraph.
A2: استعرب جَرَبًا, said of a camel, He was affected with mange, or scab, which began in his armpits and groins or similar parts, and his lips, and appeared upon the general extent of his skin. (
O.)
b2: And استعربت, said of a cow, She desired the bull. (
O,
K.)
Q. Q. 1 عَرْبَنَ: see 2, near the end.
عَرْبٌ is
syn. with إِعْرَابٌ in the sense of إِفْصَاحٌ [but
app. as a
subst. (not an
inf. n.) meaning Clear, plain, or distinct, speech]. (
TA.)
b2: and
syn. with عِرَابَةٌ,
q. v. (
TA.)
b3: And
syn. with عَرَبٌ as [
inf. n. of عَرِبَ, and] meaning نَشَاطٌ [i. e. Briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]. (
O,
K.) العُرْبُ: see العَرَبُ, first sentence.
عِرْبٌ Such as is dried up, of the [species of barley-grass called] بُهْمَى: (
S,
O,
K:) or of any herb, or leguminous plant:
n. un. with ة: or عِرْبُ البُهْمَى signifies the prickles of the بُهْمَى. (
TA.) العَرَبُ, (
S,
A,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,
K, &c.,) as also ↓ العُرْبُ, (
S,
O,
Msb,
K,) A certain people, or nation; [the Arabs, or Arabians;] (
S, O;) the
contr. of العَجَمُ (
A,
Msb,
K,
TA) and العُجْمُ; (
TA;) the inhabitants of the cities, or large towns, (
S,
A,
O,
K,) or of the Arabian cities and towns or villages: (
Mgh:) [but now, on the contrary, generally applied to those who dwell in the desert:] or those who have alighted and made their abode in the cultivated regions, and have taken as their homes the Arabian cities and towns or villages, and others also that are related to them: (
Az,
Msb:) or [
accord. to general usage] an appellation of common application [to the whole nation]: (
T,
K:) [and in the lexicons and lexicological works applied to the desert Arabs of pure speech:] it is of the
fem. gender: (
Msb,
K:) and العَرَبُ has two pls., namely, العُرُبُ, with two dammehs, and الأَعْرُبُ [which is a
pl. of pauc.]: (
Msb:) the rel.
n. [which serves as a
sing.] is ↓ عَرَبِىٌّ: (
S,
O,
K: [عَرَبٌ عَرَبِىٌّ in the
CK is a mistake:])
accord. to
Az, (
TA,) this appellation is applied to a man of established Arab lineage, even if he be not chaste, or correct, in speech. (
Msb,
TA.) The
dim. of العَرَبُ is ↓ العُرَيْبُ, (
S,
O,) without ة, (
O,
TA,) an
extr. word [with respect to
analogy, as the undiminished noun is
fem.]: (
TA:) a poet (Abu-l-Hindee, whose name was 'Abd-El-Mu-min, son of 'AbdEl-Kuddoos,
O,
TA) says, وَمَكْنُ الضِّبَابِ طَعَامُ العُرَيْبِ وَلَا تَشْتَهِيهِ نُفُوسُ العَجَمْ
[And the eggs of dabbs are food of the little Arabs; but the souls of the Foreigners do not desire them]: in which he uses the
dim. form to imply respect, or honour, like as it is used in the saying أَنَا جُذَيْلُهَا المُحَكَّكُ وَعُذَيْقُهَا المُرَجَّبُ [
expl. in art. جذل]. (
S, O.)
b2: ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبَةُ (in which the latter word is used as a
corroborative of the former as in لَيْلٌ لَائِلٌ,
S, O) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرْبَآءُ (
S,
A,
O,
Msb,
K) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرَبِيَّةُ (O) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرِبَةُ (
K) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرِبَاتُ (
CK [but this I do not find in any other copy of the
K]) are appellations of The pure, or genuine Arabs: (
S,
A,
O,
K:) or those who spoke the language of Yaarub Ibn-Kahtán; which is the ancient language: (
Msb:) and ↓ العَرَبُ المُسْتَعْرِبَةُ, (
S,
O,
Msb,
K,) as also ↓ العَرَبُ الـ
ـمُتَعَــرِّبَةُ, (
S,
O,
K,) is an appellation of The insititious [or naturalized Arabs]; (
K;) those who are not pure, or genuine, Arabs: (
S, O:) or those who spoke the language of Ismá'eel [or Ishmael] the son of Ibráheem [or Abraham], i. e., the dialects of El-Hijáz and the parts adjacent thereto: (
Msb:) and the appellation of ↓ مُسْتَعْرِبَةٌ is thought by
Az to apply [also] to people not of pure Arabian descent, who have introduced themselves among the Arabs, and speak their language, and imitate their manner or appearance. (
TA.) [The former division is most reasonably considered as consisting of the extinct tribes ('Ád, Thamood, and others mentioned in what follows); or of these together with the unmixed descendants of Kahtán, whose claims to the appellation of genuine Arabs are held by many to be equally valid: and the latter division, as consisting of those whose origin is referred, through Ma'add and 'Adnán, to Ismá'eel (or Ishmael), whose wife was descended from Kahtá
n. What I find in the
TA, on this subject, is as follows.] The former of these two divisions consisted of nine tribes, descendants of Irem [or Aram] the son of
Sám [or Shem] the son of Nooh [or Noah]; namely, 'Ád, Thamood, Umeiyim, 'Abeel, Tasm, Jedees, 'Imleek [or Amalek], Jurhum, and Webári; and from them Ismá'eel [or Ishmael is said to have] learned the Arabic language: and the ↓
مُتَعَــرِّبَة are [said to be] the descendants of Ismá'eel, the descendants of Ma'add the son of 'Adnán the son of Udd: so says Abu-l-Khattáb Ibn-Dihyeh, surnamed Dhun-Nesebeyn: or the former division consisted of seven tribes, namely, 'Ád, Thamood, 'Imleek, Tasm, Jedees, Umeiyim, and
Jásim; the main portion of whom has become extinct, some remains of them, only, being scattered among the [existing] tribes: so says
IDrd: and the appellation of ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبَةُ is also given to the descendants of Yaarub the son of Kahtán [only]. (
TA.) [It should be observed, however, that the appellation of ↓ الـ
ـمُتَعَــرِّبَةُ is, by those who hold the extinct tribes above mentioned as the only genuine Arabs, applied to the unmixed descendants of Kahtán; and ↓ المُسْتَعْرِبَةُ, to those who are held to be the descendants of Ismá'eel: thus in the
Mz, 1st نوع.
Also, it should be observed that the appellation of ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبِةُ, in the conventional language of Arabic lexicology, is often applied to the Arabs of the classical ages, and the later Arabs of the desert who retained the pure language of their ancestors, indiscriminately: it is thus applied by writers quoted in the
Mz (1st نوع) to all the descendants of Kahtán, and those of Ma'add the son of 'Adnán (through whom all the descendants of Ismá'eel trace their ancestry) who lived before the corruption, among them, of the Arabic language.]
b3: ↓ الأَعْرَابُ is the appellation given to Those [Arabs] who dwell in the desert; (
S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,
K;) such as go about in search of herbage and water; and
Az adds, whether of the Arabs or of their freedmen: he says that it is applied to those who alight and abide in the desert, and are neighbours of the dwellers in the desert, and journey, or migrate, with them, to seek after herbage and water: (
Msb:) it is not a
pl. of العَرَبُ, not being like الأَنْبَاطُ, which is
pl. of النَّبَطُ; (
S, O;) but is a [coll.]
gen. n.: (
S:) الأَعَارِيبُ occurs as its
pl. (
S,
O,
K) in chaste poetry: (
S:) it has no
sing. [properly so termed]: (
K:) the rel.
n. is ↓ أَعْرَابِىٌّ, (
S,
O,) which is applied to single person; (
Msb;) as also بَدَوِىٌّ: (
TA:)
Az says, if one say to an أَعْرَابِىّ, يَا عَرَبِىُّ, he is pleased; and if one say to an عَرَبِىّ, يَا أَعْرَابِىُّ, he is angry. (
TA.)
b4: Authors differ as to the cause why the عَرَب were thus called: some say, because of the perspicuity of their speech, from إِعْرَابٌ: others, that they were so called from Yaarub the son of Kahtán, who is said to have been the first that spoke the Arabic language; his original language having been, as asserted by
IDrd, [what the Arabs term] Syriac; though some say that Ismá'eel was the first that spoke the Arabic language; and some, that Yaarub was the first that spoke Arabic, and that Ismá'eel was the first that spoke the pure Arabic of El-Hijáz, in which the
Kur-án was revealed: others say that the عَرَب were so called from العَرَبَةُ, the name of a tract near El-Medeeneh, or a name of Mekkeh and the adjacent region, where Ismá'eel settled, or the same as Tihámeh [as is said in the
Mgh, in which this is pronounced to be the most correct derivation], or the general name of the peninsula of Arabia, which is also called العَرَبَاتُ [as is said in the
Msb]: but some say that they were so called in like manner as were the فُرْس and the رُوم and the تُرْك and others, not after the name of a land or other than a land, but by the coining of the name, not a term expressive of a quality or a state or condition &c. (
TA.) [If the country were called العَرَبَةُ, an inhabitant thereof might be called, agreeably with
analogy, عَرَبِىٌّ; and then, the people collectively, العَرَبُ: but I think that the most probable derivation is from the old Hebrew word
עְרֶב, meaning “ a mixed people,”
which the Arabs assert themselves to have been, almost from the first; and in favour of this derivation it may be reasonably urged that the old Himyeritic language agrees more in its vocabulary with the Hebrew and Phœnician than it does with the classical and modern Arabic.]

A3: And see عَرِبٌ.
A4: [It also
app. signifies (assumed

عَرِبٌ [part.

A2: And
i. q. نَفْسٌ [The soul, mind, or self]. (
S,
O,
K.) [It is thought to occur in a
pl. sense, without ة, as a
coll. gen. n., in the following sense, quoted in the
S immediately after the explanation above.] A poet says, (
S,) namely, Ibn-Meiyádeh, (
O,) لَمَّا أَتَيْتُكَ أَرْجُو فَضْلَ نَائِلِكُمْ
↓ نَفَحْتَنِى نَفَحَةً طَابَتْ لَهَا العَرَبُ [When I came to thee, hoping for the redundance of your bounty, thou gavest me a gift with which the souls were pleased]: (
S, O:) thus related by some, and
expl. as meaning طَابَتْ لَهَا النُّفُوسُ: but the [approved] relation is, طَارَتْ بِهَا العَرَبُ [(assumed
tropical:) which the Arabs made to fly upon the wings of fame], i. e. حَدَّثَتِ العَرَبُ النَّاسَ بِهَا [meaning (assumed
tropical:) of which the Arabs talked to the people]. (

TA,) means Engrave not on your signets مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ; (
Mgh,
O,
K,
TA;) because this was engraved on the Prophet's own signet: (
O,
TA:) as though he had said, نَبِيًّا عَرَبِيًّا [an Arabian prophet]; meaning himself. (
O,
K,
TA.) Omar said, ↓ لَا تَنْقُشُوا فِى خَوَاتِيمِكُمُ العَرَبِيَّةَ [Engrave not on your signets Arabic]: and Ibn-'Omar disapproved of engraving on a signet words from the
Kur-á
n. (
Mgh, *

TA.) العَرَبِيَّةُ The Arabic language; (
S,
TA;) the language of the
Kur-á
n. (
Msb.) Katádeh says that the tribe of Kureysh used to cull, or select, what was most excellent in the dialects of the Arabs, [in the doing of which they were aided by the confluence of pilgrims from all parts of the country,] so that their dialect became the most excellent of all, and the
Kur-án was therefore revealed in that dialect. (

b2: And see عُرُوبَةٌ.
عَرْبَانُ [written in the
TA without any
syll. signs, but it is

Mgh,
O,
Msb) or hire (
Msb) have effect, it shall be reckoned as part of the price, and otherwise shall not be reclaimed; (
Mgh,
O,
Msb;) called by the vulgar رَبُون: (
O:) it is forbidden in a
trad., (
Mgh,
O,
TA,) and by most of the lawyers, but allowed by some: (
TA:) عربون is said by
As to be a foreign word arabicized, (
Msb,) and so say many authors; though it is said by some of the expositors of the
Fs to be from التَّعْرِيبُ signifying “ the making clear, plain,” &c.; اربون being also derived from أُرْبَةٌ signifying “ a knot: ” (
TA:) and [it is said that] the ن in عربون and عربان may be augmentative or radical, because one says أَعْرَبَ فِى كَذَا and عَرْبَنَ. (
O.)

S,
O,
Msb;) also termed ↓ أَعْرُبٌ and ↓ مُعْرِبَةٌ, (
K,) which last [erroneously written in the
CK مَعْرِبَةٌ] is
fem. of مُعْرِبٌ, signifying a horse having no strain of admixture of other than Arabian blood: (
Ks,
S, O:) one of such horses is [also] termed ↓ عَرَبِىٌّ: (

IAar,
O,
TA:) as though having two
contr. meanings; [the latter meaning] from عَرْب [a mistranscription for عَرَب] signifying
“ corruptness ” of the stomach: (
O:) or who loves him passionately, or excessively: or who manifests love to him, evincing passionate, or excessive, desire: [
lit., evincing that; meaning what is expressed by the words immediately preceding it; for otherwise this last explanation would be the same as the first; and as I have rendered it, it is nearly the same as an explanation in the
Expos. of the
Jel (lvi. 36), manifesting love to her husband, by reason of passionate, or excessive, desire:] (
K:) and (so in the
TA, but in the
CK “ or ”) a woman who is a great laugher: and ↓ عَرُوبَةٌ and ↓ عَرِبَةٌ signify the same: (
K:) the
pl. of the first is عُرُبٌ (
S,
O,
K) and عُرْبٌ; (
TA;) and the
pl. of ↓ عَرِبَةٌ is عَرِبَاتٌ: (
K:)
IAth says that ↓ عَرِبَةٌ signifies a woman who is eager for play, or sport: and عُرُبٌ, he adds, is
pl. of ↓ عَرِيبٌ, which signifies a woman of goodly person, who manifests love to her husband: and it is also said that عُرُبٌ signifies women who use amorous gesture or behaviour, and coquettish boldness, with feigned coyness or opposition: or who make a show of, or act with, lasciviousness: or passionately loving: and ↓ عَرِبَةٌ and عَرُوبٌ,

O,
K;) and ancient name of that day (
S,
O,
TA) in the Time of Ignorance: (
TA:)
accord. to some, it is most chastely without the article; (
TA;) thus it occurs in old poetry of the Time of Ignorance; (O;) and it is thought to be not Arabic; (
TA;) and said to be arabicized from the Nabathæan أَرُبَا: (
Har p. 340,
q. v.:)
accord. to others, the article is inseparable from it; and its meaning,
accord. to Ibn-En-Nahhás is the manifest and magnified, from أَعْرَبَ “ he made clear, plain,” &c.; or
accord. to an authority cited in the
R, its meaning is mercy. (
TA.) [See art. ابجد.]
عُرُوبَةٌ (
