نمذج
نَمُوذَجٌ (K, Msb &c.) and أَنْمُوذَجٌ; which latter is said to be a corruption in the TS and the K; but this is denied by El-Khafájee and by Mtr; and learned men, in early and in late times, have constantly used the word انموذج without any expression of disapproval; Z and El-Hasan Ibn-Rasheek El-Keyrawánee, two leading lexicologists, having even named thereby books written by them; (MF;) vulgo نَمُونَه [which is a Persian word]; (TA;) A model, an exemplar, a pattern, or a likeness of a thing, after the similitude of which a thing is made: (Msb:) a model, or likeness, of a thing; (K;) i. e., a thing that is made in the form, or after the fashion, of another thing, that the mode of the latter may be known thereby: (TA:) a thing which shows the mode, or quality, or qualities, of another thing: (Msb:) an arabicized word, (K,) from [the Persian] نَمُودَهْ.
