IKtt says, غَمَزَتِ الدَّابَّةُ بِرِجْلِهَا the beast gave an indication of a limping, or halting, or slight lameness, in its hind leg: whence it appears that this signification may be
tropical. (

3 غَاْمَزَ [This verb is mentioned by Golius as
syn. with عايب, a verb for which I find no authority: and Freytag renders it “ Vitii arguit,” and refers to a passage in
Har (p. 427 of the see. ed.) where (like as is done by Golius) المُغامِز and المُعايِب, as
syn., are erroneously put for المَغامِز and المَعايِب.]

TA in art. همز.) غَامِزٌ [meaning Limping, or halting, &c., and having a limping, or halting, &c.,] is like ظَالِعٌ: sometimes used as a possessive noun; and [therefore] one does not say غَامِزَةٌ. (O and
TA in art. ظلع.) مَغْمَزٌ [should by rule be مَغْمِزٌ: its primary signification is A place of feeling, to know if an animal be fat: hence, a place of pressing or squeezing a limb &c.: and a place of pinching and pressing a spear, to straighten it].

tropical:) that has no crookedness: مقرع is an
inf. n., or means “ a place of beating,” and صفاة is “ a rock; ” and the above-mentioned use of these two words is borrowed from the phrase قَرَعَ صَفَاتَهُ, meaning (
tropical:) “ he impugned his character; blamed, or censured, him; or spoke against him. ” (
