بحثر
Q. 1 بَحْثَرَ, [
inf. n. بَحْثَرَةٌ,] He took, drew, or pulled, a thing out, or forth; and uncovered it, laid it open, or exposed it; (Abu-l-Jarráh,
S,
K;) as also بَعْثَرَ. (Abu-l-Jarráh,
S.) It is said in the
Kur [c. 9],
accord. to one reading, بُعْثِرَ بُحْثِرَ مَا فِى القُبُورِ, [instead of بُعْثِرَ,] meaning [When that which is in the graves is taken forth and uncovered; i. e.,] when the dead are raised to life;
syn. بُعِثَ; and it is not improbable that بَحْثَرَ may be composed of بَحَثَ and أَثَرَ [
app. a mistranscription for أَثَارَ],
accord. to the opinion of those who hold that quadriliteral and quinqueliteral words are composed of two. (
TA.)
b2: He searched, or sought, for, or after, a thing in the dust or earth, or the like;
syn. بَحَثَ [which Ibr D thinks may be a mistake for بَعَثَ: but see بَعْثَرَ]. (
L,
K, and
Bd in c. 9.)
b3: He separated, disunited, scattered, dispersed, or dissipated, (
S,
K,) a thing. (
S.) He scattered, or dispersed, his household goods, or his commodities, and turned them over, one upon another; as also بَعْثَرَ. (
Fr,
S.)
A2: It (milk) curdled, or coagulated, and formed little clots of curd;
syn. تَقَطَّعَ وَ تَحَبَّبَ. (
S,
K.)
Q. 2 تَبَحْثَرَ It (a thing,
S) became separated, disunited, scattered, dispersed, or dissipated. (
S,
K.) لَبَنٌ مُبَحْثِرٌ Milk curdling, or coagulating, and forming little clots of curd. (
K. [See
Q. 1.]) When the upper portion is thick and the lower thin, it is termed هَادِرٌ. (
TA.)
