يفخ
1 يَفَخَهُ, (
K,)
aor. ـَ because of the guttural letter, or يَفُخَ,
accord. to the common rule observed in the
K, or يَفِخَ, as though it were of the same class as وَعَدَ, (
TA,) [the last is probably the most correct form, as يَأْفِخُهُ is the
aor. of أَفَخَهُ, of which يَفَخَهُ is a
dial. form,] He, or it, hit him, or hurt him, on the part of his head called the يَافُوخ. (
K.) يَافُوخٌ [The top of the head;] the part where the anterior and posterior bones of the head meet: [see يَأْفُوخٌ, of which it is a
dial. form:]
pl. يَوَافِيخُ. (
TA.)
ISd regards this form of
pl. as an indication that the ى is a radical letter, and therefore mentions it in this art.; (
TA;) [and
F says the same in art. أفخ: but see that art.].
b2: مَسَّ بِيَافُوخِهِ السِّمَاكَ (assumed
tropical:) [He touched Spica Virginis, or Arcturus, with the top of his head]. (
A.)
b3: وَطِئَ فُلَانٌ يَوَافِيخَ القُرُومِ (assumed
tropical:) Such a one had lordship and eminence given to him. (
A.)
b4: صَدَعُوا يَافُوخَ اللَّيْلِ (
tropical:)
i. q. أَدْلَجُوا [They journeyed in the night; &c.] (
A.) [See also art. أفخ.]
مَيْفُوخٌ Hit, or hurt, on the part of his head called the يَافُوخ. (
K.)
