Entries on قَلَفَ  in 1 Arabic dictionary by the author Ibn Fāris, Maqāyīs al-Lugha
(قَلَفَ) الْقَافُ وَاللَّامُ وَالْفَاءُ أَصْلٌ صَحِيحٌ يَدُلُّ عَلَى كَشْطِ شَيْءٍ عَنْ شَيْءٍ. يُقَالُ: قَلَفْتُ الشَّجَرَةَ، إِذَا نَحَّيْتُ عَنْهَا لِحَاءَهَا. وَقَلَفْتُ الدَّنَّ: فَضَضْتُ عَنْهُ طِينَهُ. وَقَلَفَ الْخَاتِنُ غُرْلَةَ الصَّبِيِّ، وَهِيَ الْقُلْفَةُ، إِذَا قَطَعَهَا.
