النَّاقَةِ, (S, M, K,) and الفَرَسِ, inf. n. سَطْوٌ and سُطُوٌّ, (M,) He (the pastor) put his hand into the رَحِم [or vulva] of the she-camel, (S, M, K,) and of the mare, (M,) to extract, (S, K,) or and extracted, (M,) the sperma of the stallion: (S, M, K:) when this is not extracted, the she-camel does not conceive: (S:) or this is done when she has been leaped by a stallion of low race; or when the sperma is bad, and she has not conceived in consequence of it. (M.) And He extracted from her (i. e. a she-camel, TA) the fœtus, dead: (M, TA:) and مَسَطَ signifies “ he extracted the sperma of the stallion: ” thus Az distinguishes between the two verbs. (TA.) Accord. to IAar, one says, سَطَا عَلَى الحَامِلِ, and سَاطَ, which is formed by transposition, meaning He extracted the fœtus, or young one, of the pregnant female. (TA.) And A'Obeyd mentions السَّطْوُ as used in relation to a woman: it is said in a trad. of El-Hasan, لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يَسْطُوَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى المَرْأَةِ [There is, or will be, no harm in the man's extracting the fœtus of the woman]; (M, TA;) which Lth explains by saying, when her child sticks fast in her belly, dead, it may be extracted [by him] when fear is entertained for her and a woman is not found to do this. (TA.) b3: سَطَا said of a horse, (M, K,) inf. n. سَطْوٌ, (M,) He went at random, heedlessly, or in a headlong manner, not obeying guidance. (M, K.) b4: Also, said of a horse, He went with wide step: (S, M, K:) or raised his tail in running; the doing of which is approved. (M.) b5: Also (tropical:) It was, or became, abundant, or copious; said of water. (S, M, Msb, K, TA.) b6: And (tropical:) He tasted food; (K, TA;) and took it with the hand, or with the extended hand. (TA.) b7: And i. q. عَاقَبَ [app. as meaning He punished: see سَطْوَةٌ, below]. (M, TA.) b8: And سَطَاهَا He compressed her; [and so سَطَأَهَا and شَطَأَهَا;] on the authority of Aboo-Sa'eed. (TA.) 3 ساطاهُ, (K,) inf. n. مُسَاطَاةٌ, (TA,) He treated him with hardness, severity, or rigour: (K, TA:) so says Az, on the authority of IAar. (TA.) b2: And He treated him with gentleness, or tenderness. (IAar, T, TA.) Thus it has two contr. significations. (TA.) سَطْوَةٌ [as a simple subst., or] as an inf. n. un., has for its pl. سَطَوَاتٌ. (S.) It signifies [A spring, or rush; or an assault, or attack: &c.: (see 1, first sentence:) impetuosity in war or battle:] a reviling: a beating: and punishment, or chastisement; as in the saying, اِتَّقِ سَطْوَتَهُ [Guard thyself against his punishment, or chastisement; or it may mean in this phrase, his violence, or impetuosity]. (TA.) سَاطٍ [act. part. n. of 1, Springing, or rushing; making an assault, or attack: &c. b2: Hence,] applied to a horse, That springs, or rushes, upon other horses, and stands upon his hind legs and attacks with his fore legs: (T, TA: [in the Ham p. 383, and raises his fore legs:]) or a horse wide in step: (As, S, M, K:) or that attacks other horses: (S:) or that raises his tail in his running; (S, M, K;) the doing of which is approved. (M.) b3: And A stallion-camel excited by lust, and going forth from camels to other camels (S, K) in consequence thereof. (S.) b4: And What is tall, or long, (K, TA,) of camels &c. (TA.) b5: الأَيْدِى السَّوَاطِى The hands that reach, or take, or take hold of, a thing. (TA.)

(S, K.) and سَمَّتْهُ الــهَامَّــةُ The هامّــة [or venomous reptile or the like] smote him with its poison. (M.) b2: [Hence, perhaps, He suggested it, إِلَيْهِ to him: a signification mentioned by Freytag, but without any indication of the authority.] b3: [And, app., It perforated it; transpierced it; or pierced, or passed, through it: for it is said that] مَسَمٌّ may be an inf. n. of the verb [signifying نَفَذَ], and may also signify a place of نُفُوذ. (Msb.) b4: And, (K,) aor. ـُ (S, TA,) inf. n. سَمٌّ, (TA,) (tropical:) He probed it; namely a case, or an affair; and examined, or endeavoured to learn, its depth.

I closed, stopped, or stopped up, the flask, or bottle, and the like].

And سَمَّتِ النِّعْمَةُ The benefit, or bounty, was, or became, particular, peculiar, or special, as to its object: (S, K:) the verb being intrans. as well as trans. (K.) El-'Ajjáj says, هُوَ الَّذِى أَنْعَمَ نُعْمَى عَمَّتْ عَلَى الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا وَسَمَّتْ (S,) or the latter hemistich is عَلَى البِلَادِ رَبُّنَا وَسَمَّتْ (M,) [He is the Being who has bestowed bounty that has been general and that has been particular upon those who have become Muslims, or upon the countries, namely, our Lord]: he means that it has reached all.

And He (a fox) ran; [or ran in a certain manner;] inf. n. سَمْسَمَةٌ: (TK:) the latter signifies the running, (K,) or a sort of running, (M,) of the fox. (M, K.) سَمٌّ Poison, or vemom; (PS, TK;) or deadly poison or venom; (KL;) or the poison, or venom, of the serpent; (MA;) a certain deadly thing, (S, M, Msb, K,) well known; (K;) as also ↓ سُمٌّ, (S, M, Msb, K,) which is of the dial. of the people of El-'Áliyeh, (Yoo, Msb, TA,) and is said to be the most chaste; (MF, TA;) and ↓ سِمٌّ, (Msb, K,) which is [said to be] of the dial. of Temeem, (Msb,) [but is thought by SM to be vulgar, and] accord. to Yoo, the first is of the dial. of Temeem, (TA,) and this is the most common of the three: (Msb:) pl. سِمَامٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and سُمُومٌ: (S, Msb, K:) and ↓ سَمْسَمٌ signifies the same, in the sing. sense. (ISk, K, TA.) [In some copies of the K, by a mistranscription (وَالسَّمِّ or وَالسُّمِّ for والسَّمُّ or وَالسُّمُّ) سَمٌّ or سُمٌّ is made to be syn. with سَمْسَمٌ as signifying “ a fox. ” That the right reading is that which I have followed is shown in the TA by an ex., in which سَمْسَم is spoken of as drunk.] b2: [Hence,] سَمُّ الفَأْرِ Arsenic; [in like manner called by us ratsbane;] syn. الشَّكُّ, (K, TA,) i. e. الرَّهَجُ [which is a modern word for arsenic]. (TA.) [Also applied in the present day to The hyoscyamus muticus of Linn. (Delile's Floræ Aegypt. Illustr., in the Descr. de l'Égypte, no. 242.)] b3: And سَمُّ الحِمَارِ The [tree called]

دِفْلَى [q. v.]. (K.) b4: And سَمُّ السَّمَكِ The tree called مَاهِيزَهْرَهْ [or مَاهِى زَهْرَهْ], (K,) which latter appellation is Pers\., meaning the same, [i. e.

“ fish-poison,”] (TA,) and also known by the name of البُوصِيرُ: it is beneficial for pains of the joints, and pain of the hip and the back, and the نِقْرِس [i. e. gout, or specially gout in the foot or feet]; but the only part of its tree that is beneficial is its لِحَآء [or bark]: (K, TA:) when somewhat thereof, (K, * TA,) kneaded mith leaven, (TA,) is put into a pool of water, it intoxicates the fish thereof, (K, TA,) so that they float upon the surface of the water: (TA:) and its leaves burn in lamps in lieu of wicks, (K, TA,) by reason of their oleaginous property. (TA.) b5: سَمُّ أَبْرَصَ: see سَامٌّ.

A2: Also, and ↓ سُمٌّ, (S, M, Msb, K,) and ↓ سِمٌّ, (Msb, K,) [but the last is thought by SM to be vulgar, in this sense as well as in the first,] A perforation, bore, or hole, (S, M, Msb, K,) of anything; (M;) or such as is narrow; (TA;) for instance, (S, TA,) [the eye] of a needle; (S, Msb, TA;) as in the Kur vii. 38; [see جُمَّلٌ;] and the hole of the nose, and of the ear: (TA:) pl. سُمُومٌ, (M,) or سِمَامٌ, (Msb,) or both. (S, K.) The سُمُوم and سِمَام of a human being are His mouth and his nostril and his ear, (S,) or his mouth and his nostrils and his ears; (K;) and the sing. is سَمٌّ and ↓ سُمٌّ: (S:) or the سُمُوم of a human being, and of a horse or the like, are the clefts (مَشَاقّ) of the skin thereof. (M.) And the سُمُوم of the horse are The thin portions of the hard bone, [extending] from the two sides of the nasal bone to the channels of the tears: sing. سَمٌّ: (M:) or, as some say, (M,) the سَمَّانِ, (S, M,) or the سَمّ, (K, [but this seems evidently to be a mistake for the dual,]) means two veins in the nose (أَنْف, M, or خَيْشُوم, S, K, [which latter often means the same as the former,]) of the horse: (S, M, K:) accord. to Lth, سُمُومٌ, as pl. of سَمٌّ, signifies the channels of the tears of the horse: AO says that in the face of the horse are سُمُوم; and the bareness of his سُمُوم is approved, and is regarded as indicative of generous breed. (TA.) By the سُمُوم of the horse are also meant Any bone [or rather bones] in which is marrow. (TA.) And the سُمُوم of a sword are Notches therein, whether new or old. (TA.) b2: أَصَابَ سَمَّ حَاجَتِهِ [is app. from سَمٌّ as signifying the “ eye ” of a needle, or the like, and] means (assumed tropical:) He hit, or attained, the object of his aim or pursuit: (M, K:) and in like manner, هُوَ بَصِيرٌ بِسَمِّ حَاجَتِهِ [He is knowing, or skilful, in respect of the object of his aim or pursuit]. (M.) b3: [And hence, perhaps, though another derivation is asserted in what follows,] one says also, مَالَهُ سَمٌّ وَلَا حَمٌّ غَيْرُكَ and وَلَا حُمٌّ ↓ سُمٌّ, (S, M,) meaning (assumed tropical:) He has no object in his mind except thee; syn. هَمٌّ: (M:) and in like manner, مَالَهُ سَمٌّ وَلَا حَمٌّ and وَلَا ↓ سُمٌّ حُمٌّ [alone]: or, accord. to Fr, it means he has not any who hopes for him: this is from [سَمَمْتُ سَمَّكَ and] حَمَمْتُ حَمَّكَ and هَمَمْتُ هَمَّكَ meaning قَصَدْتُ قَصْدَكَ; سَمٌّ and حَمٌّ being the inf. ns., and ↓ سُمٌّ and حُمٌّ the simple substs.; and the meaning is, he has not any who seeks after him; i. e. he has no good in him for which he is to be sought after: (Meyd:) or it means he has neither little nor much. (K and TA in art. حم.) b4: سَمٌّ also signifies The loop (عُرْوَة) of the [girth called]

وَضِين: pl. سُمُومٌ. (TA. [See مُسَمَّمٌ.]) b5: and Anything like وَدَع [or cowries] brought forth from the sea, (S, K, TA,) and strung for ornament. (TA.)

(K.) سَمَامٌ A sort of bird, (T, S, M,) less than the species called قَطًا, in make, (T, TA,) like the سُمَانَى [or quail]: (M, TA:) [accord. to explanations of سَمَامَةٌ in the MA, mountain-swallows: or, accord. to the same and Meyd, birds like swallows: accord. to Dmr, as stated by Golius, i. q. طير ابابيل: but this is app. said in relation to an assertion of 'Áïsheh, mentioned in art. ابل in the Msb, that the birds termed أَبَابِيل in the Kur cv. 3 were most like to swallows:] the word is a pl., (S,) [or rather a coll. gen. n.,] and the sing. [or n. un.] is with ↓ ة, (S, M,) pl. سَمَائِمُ: (Meyd:) see سَمَاسِمُ. b2: And hence, as being likened thereto, A banner, an ensign, or a standard; syn. لِوَآءٌ: (M:) or so ↓ سَمَامَةٌ. (K.) b3: And [hence, also, perhaps, without ة, as in a verse cited by IB and in the TA, for the coll. gen. n. may be used as a sing.,] A swift she-camel: (S, IB, TA:) [pl. سَمَائِمُ, mentioned by Freytag, from Reiske, as signifying swift she-camels.] b4: Also, and ↓ سَمْسَامٌ and ↓ سُمَاسِمٌ and ↓ سُمْسُمَانٌ and ↓ سُمْسُمَانِىٌّ, applied to anything, [of men and of beasts &c.,] Light, active, or agile, and slender, and swift; (M, K;) and so ↓ سَمْسَمَةٌ: (M: [thus there written; not سَمَامَةٌ nor سَمْسَامَةٌ, though both of these are app. correct:]) or ↓ سَمْسَامٌ and ↓ سُمْسُمَانِىٌّ, applied to a man, signify light, or active, or agile, and swift, or quick; (S;) and ↓ سُمْسُمٌ so applied, and ↓ سُمْسُمَةٌ and ↓ سَمَامَةٌ, applied to a woman, signify light, or active, or agile, and slender: (TA:) or ↓ سُمْسُمٌ, applied to a man, signifies [simply] light, or active, or agile.

سَمُومٌ, of the fem. gender, (S,) A hot wind, (S, M, Msb, K,) or, as some say, a cold wind, (M, [perhaps a mistake occasioned by a misunderstanding of the phrase سَمُومٌ بَارِدٌ, expl. below,]) in the night or in the day, (M,) or generally (K) in the day, (Msb, K,) but authorities differ respecting it, as has been shown voce حَرُورٌ; (Msb;) accord. to AO, it is in the day, and sometimes in the night; and the حَرُور is in the night, and sometimes in the day: (S:) but some say that the former is in the night, and the latter in the day: (Ibn-Es-Seed in the “ Fark,” TA:) [in the present day it is commonly applied to a violent and intensely-hot wind, generally occurring in the spring or summer, in Egypt and the Egyptian deserts usually proceeding from the south-east or south-south-east, gradually darkening the air to a deep purple hue, whether or not (according to the nature of the tract over which it blows) accompanied by clouds of dust or sand, and at length entirely concealing the sun; but seldom lasting more than about a quarter of an hour or twenty minutes:] the word is used as a subst.
