درق
دَرَقٌ: see what next follows.
دَرَقَةٌ i. q. حَجَفَةٌ, (S, K, TA,) or تُرْسٌ, (Mgh,) [i. e. A shield,] made without wood and without sinews: (Mgh, TA:) or made of skins sewed one over another: (ISd and TA voce حَجَفَةٌ, q. v.:) pl. ↓ دَرَقٌ, (S, K,) [or rather this is a coll. gen. n.,] and [the pl. is] أَدْرَاقٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and دِرَاقٌ; (K;) this last mentioned by IDrd, who says, they are made of the skins of beasts found in the country of the Abyssinians, (TA,) [as are shields thus called in the present day: they are made of the skin of the hippopotamus, and of other pachydermatous animals; and sometimes of the skin of the crocodile; generally oval, with a large protuberance in the middle, behind which is the handle, and between a foot and a half and two feet in length.]
A2: Also A خَوْخَة [here meaning sluice] in a rivulet: an arabicized word, from [the Persian] دَرِيچَهْ. (K, TA.) This is what is meant by the saying of the lawyers, that the repairing of the درقة is incumbent on the owner of the rivulet. (TA.) دِرَّاقٌ: see what next follows.
دِرْيَاقٌ (S, K) and دَرْيَاقٌ (El-Hejeree, K) and ↓ دِرْيَاقَةٌ and ↓ دَرْيَاقَةٌ (K) and ↓ دِرَّاقٌ, (Fr, TA,) with kesr, like دِنَّارٌ &c., not دَرَّاقٌ, as it would seem to be from the manner in which it is mentioned in the K, (TA,) [and as it is written in the CK and my MS. copy of the K,] i. q. تِرْيَاقٌ [q. v.]. (S, K.) b2: Also, (K,) or ↓ دِرْيَاقَةٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) Wine; (K, TA;) as being likened to ترياق [properly so called: a meaning also borne by تِرْيَاقٌ and تِرْيَاقَةٌ]. (TA.) دِرْيَاقَةٌ and دَرْيَاقَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.
دَوْرَقٌ A certain measure for wine, or beverage, (S, A, O, L,) containing the quantity to be drunk [at once]: a Persian word, [originally دَوْرَهْ or دُورَهْ,] arabicized: (L, TA:) [J says,] I think it to be Persian, arabicized: (S:) it is thus correctly written; not, as the context of the K requires it to be in this sense, دَرْدَقٌ. (TA.) b2: Also A jar having a loop-shaped handle, (K, TA,) that is lifted, or carried, by the hand: of the dial. of the people of Mekkeh: pl. دَوَارِقُ. (TA.) [In Egypt, it is applied to A narrownecked drinking-bottle, made of a dust-coloured, or grayish, porous earth, for the purpose of cooling the water by evaporation: several varieties of this kind of bottle are figured in ch. v. of my “ Modern Egyptians. ”]
