coll. gen. n., and] its
n. un. is بُـ
ـهْمَــاةٌ, (
S,
K, and so in the
JK,) its alif, some say, being a letter of quasi-coordination; but
Mbr says that this is not known, and that the alif in a word of the measure فُعْلى is nought but a denotative of the

JK,) are vehemently fond of it as long as it is green; (
Lth,
JK,
TA;) but when it dries up, its prickles bristle out, and it repugns; (
Lth,
TA;) it is of the herbs (بُقُول) that are termed أَحْرَاز [
app. here meaning slender and sweet] when fresh and when dry, and comes forth at first undistinguishably as to species, from the earth, like as does corn; then it becomes like corn, and puts forth prickles like those [that compose the awn, or beard,] of the ear of corn, which, when they enter the noses of the sheep or goats and the camels, cause pain to their noses, until men pull them out from their mouths and their noses; and when it becomes large, and dries up, it is a pasture that is fed upon until the rain of the next year falls upon it, when its seed that has fallen from its ears germinates beneath it.
