A2: فَرِيصٌ is also, like فَرَائِصُ, pl. of فَرِيصَةٌ; (S;) [or, rather, فَرِيصٌ is a coll. gen. n., whereof the n. un. is ↓ فَرِيصَةٌ;] which signifies The portion of flesh [or muscle] between the side and the shoulder-blade which incessantly trembles, or quakes, (As, S, K,) in a beast: (As, S:) or the portion of flesh which is in the part extending from the مَرْجِع [or lower part, next the armpit,] of the shoulder-blade to the arm, on either side, and which trembles, or quakes, when the man, or beast, is frightened: (Zj, in his “ Khalk el-Insán: ”) or the portion of flesh which is by the نَغْض of the كَتِف, [which may app. be here rendered with sufficient exactness the cartilage of the shoulder-blade; or the part of it where it moves to and fro;] in the middle of the side, by the place where the heart beats: there are two such portions, each of them thus called, which tremble, or quake, on an occasion of fright: and the piece of flesh that is between the breast (ثَدْى) and the مَرْجِع [expl. above] of the shoulder-blade, of a man and of a beast: or, as some say, the lower part (أَصْل) of the مَرْجِعُ المِرْفَقَيْنِ [or place to which either elbow returns, in a beast, when, having been removed from the usual place, it is brought back thereto]: (M:) or a small piece of flesh which is in the heart, and which trembles, or quakes, by reason of a calamity, when one is frightened: (A 'Obeyd:) or a piece of flesh [or muscle] in the side, which trembles, or quakes, when one is frightened. (A.) [Hence the saying,] ↓ هُوَ ضَخْمُ الفَرِيصَةِ (tropical:) He is bold and strong. (A, TA.) b2: فَرِيصُ العُنُقِ The external jugular veins (أَوْدَاج) of the neck: n. un. with ة: (A 'Obeyd, S, K:) or the tendons, or sinews, (عَصَب,) and veins, of the neck: so, app., says A 'Obeyd, in the following words of a trad.: إِنِّى لَأَكْرَهُ أَنْ

أَرَى الرَّجُلُ ثَائِرًا فَرِيصُ رَقَبَتِهِ قَائِمًا عَلَى مُرَيْئَتِهِ يَضْرِبُهَا [Verily I hate to see the man having the tendons, or sinews, and veins, of his neck swelling with anger, rising against his little wife, beating her]: for these are what swell out in anger: (S:) or, accord. to IAar, the meaning is, the hair of the فريص, which term is metaphorically used in relation to the neck, though it [really] has no فَرَائِص, because anger causes its veins to swell out [like as fright causes the فَرِيص properly so called to tremble or quake]: (Az, TA:) فَرِيسٌ is a dial. var. of the same. (TA.) [See فَرَصَهُ, last signification.]

فَرِيصَةٌ: see فَرِيصٌ, in two places. b2: الفَرِيصَةُ i. q. أُمُّ سُوَيْدِ, (IDrd, O, K,) i. e., الاِسْتُ. (TA.) A2: See also فُرْصَةٌ.

أَفْرَصُ Humpbacked; as also أَفْرَزُ and أَفْرَسُ. (Fr in TA voce أَعْجَرُ.) مِفْرَصٌ: see what next follows.

مِفْرَاصٌ (IDrd, S, M, A, O, K) and ↓ مَفْرَصٌ (IDrd, S, O, K) A thing with which silver is cut, (S, A,) and gold: (A:) or a broad iron instrument with which one cuts: (M:) or the iron with which iron is cut, or silver: (K:) or a broad iron instrument with which iron is cut: (IDrd, O:) or the iron with which silver is cut: (O:) [see also مِقْرَاضٌ:] or, as some say, i. q. إِشْفًى

[q. v.] with a broad head, with which sandals are sewed. (IDrd, O.) El-Aashà says, وَأَدْفَعُ عَنْ أَعْرَاضِكُمْ وَأُعِيرُكُمْ لِسَانًا كَمِفْرَاصِ الخَفَاجِىِّ مِلْحَبَا [And I defend your honours, and lend to you a tongue like the مفراص of the Khafájee, sharp]. (S.) And you say, بَيْنَ جَنْبَيْهِ مِفْرَاصُ الخَفَاجِىِّ (tropical:) [Between his two sides is an intellect sharp as the مفراص of the Khafájee]. (A.) [Hence it seems that among the tribe of Khafájeh were expert workers with the instrument thus called.]

هُوَ مُفَارِصِى: see فَرِيصٌ, second sentence.

(TA.) b15: As a measure, إِصْبَعٌ signifies [A digit; i. e. a finger's breadth;] the width of six moderate-sized barley-corns; (Msb voce جَرِيبٌ;) the forth part of the قَبْضَة.

فر

ى1 فَرَاهُ, (M, K,) aor. ـْ (K,) inf. n. فَرْىٌ, (K,) He slit it, or cut it lengthwise, ill, or improperly; or well, or properly; as also ↓ فرّاهُ and ↓ افراهُ [both relating to both of the foregoing explanations]: (K:) or he slit it, or cut it lengthwise, and made it bad, or improper; as also ↓ فرّاهُ: or, accord. to the sound lexicologists, the former has this meaning: but ↓ افرى signifies he slit, or cut lengthwise, and made good, or proper: (M:) or ↓ افراهُ (M, K) signifies, (M,) or signifies also, (K,) he made it good, or proper: or he ordered [another] to make it so: (M, K:) as though he removed from it unsoundness, or imperfection: but some say that this signifies he slit it, or cut it lengthwise, and made it bad, or improper: and when you mean he measured it, and cut it, to make it good, or proper, you say فَرَاهُ, inf. n. فَرْىٌ: (M:) [thus, accord. to J,] فَرَى, aor. and inf. n. as above, signifies he cut a thing in order to make it good, or proper: (S:) or he cut a skin, or hide, in a good, or proper, manner: (Ks, S, Msb:) and ↓ افرى he cut it in a bad, or an improper, manner: (Ks, S:) or this signifies he slit much, in a bad, or an improper, manner: and افرى الجِلْدَ, accord. to As, he rent, tore, or slit, the skin, and made holes in it, and spoiled it: and افرى signifies also he slit a thing (S, M, Msb) of any kind; (as also ↓ فرّاهُ:]) thus you say, افرى الأَودَاجَ he slit the اوداج [or external jugular veins], (T, M, Mgh, Msb,) and made what was in them, of the blood, to come forth; (T, Mgh, Msb;) and in like manner one says of a garment, or piece of cloth, and of a جُلَّة [or receptacle for dates, made of palm-leaves woven together]; (T;) or he cut the اوداج: (S:) IAar alone mentions فَرَى أَوْدَاجَهُ and ↓ افراها: (M:) [but it is also said that فَرَى signifies he cut a نِطَع [or the like]: (K in art. خلق: [see an ex. in a verse cited in the first paragraph of that art.; also cited in the T after the first of the explanations here following, and in the M after the second thereof:]) or فَرَى, aor. and inf. n. as above, signifies he measured, and worked, or manufactured, and made good, or proper, a thing, such as a sandal, or a نِطَع [q. v.], or a water-skin, and the like: (T:) or he measured it, and cut it, to make it good, or proper: (M:) and he measured and manufactured a مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag]: (S, K:) or he sewed, and made well, or properly, a مزادة: (T:) [it is said that] the difference between ↓ الإِفْرَاءُ an الفَرْىُ is this, that the former signifies the cutting so as to render bad, or improper, and the slitting like as the slaughterer and the wild beast slit [their victims]; and the latter, the cutting so as to make good, or proper, like the act of cutting of the sewer of the hide, or of leather: but فَرَى

sometimes occurs in the sense of افرى: (Mgh:) one says, رَأْسَهُ ↓ أَفْرَيْتُ, meaning I split, or clave, his head with a sword; like أَفْرَرْتُهُ: (Yz, T &c. in art. فر:) and افرى الجُرْحَ he slit the wound: (T:) and افرى الذِّئْبُ بَطْنَ الشَّاةِ [the wolf slit, or rent, the belly of the sheep, or goat]: (S:) and one says, قَدْ أَفْرَيْتَ وَمَا فَرَيْتَ i. e. thou hast done ill, or improperly, and hast not done well, or properly. (A, TA.) b2: فَرَاهُ, aor. as above, [and so the inf. n.,] is sometimes metonymically used [as meaning (tropical:) He slaughtered him, or butchered him; i. e.] as denoting vehemence, or excess, in slaying. (TA.) b3: And it means also (assumed tropical:) He cut him with censure, or satire: (TA:) and ↓ افرى means he blamed, or censured, a man. (M, K.) b4: and you say, فَرَيْتُ الأَرْضَ (tropical:) I traversed, or crossed, (lit. travelled and cut,) the land, or country; (T, S, K, TA;) inf. n. as above. (TA.) b5: هُوَ يَفْرِى

↓ الفَرِىَّ means (assumed tropical:) He effects what is wonderful in his deed. (S, K.) أَحَدٌ ↓ مَا يَفْرِى فَرِيَّهُ, thus, with teshdeed [to the ى in فريه] as related by A'Obeyd, is said of a courageous man [as meaning No one does his deed, or the like]: but it is said [by Kh] to be correctly فَرْيَهُ, [as an inf. n.,] without tesh-deed. (M. [See, however, what follows.]) They say, ↓ تَرَكْتُهُ يَفْرِى الفَرِىَّ, meaning [I left him] doing well, or excellently, in a deed, or in watering: [an explanation relating to what here follows:] the Prophet said, respecting 'Omar, whom he saw in a dream drawing water at a well with a great bucket, ↓ فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا يَفْرِى فَرِيَّهُ [And I have not seen a chief of a people do his deed, &c.]: (T:) or, as some relate it, he said فَرْيَهُ: (TA:) [but] A'Obeyd says, this is like thy saying يَعْمَلُ عَمَلَهُ and يَقُولُ قَوْلَهُ; and Fr cited to us [as an ex.]

↓ قَدْ كُنْتِ تَفْرِينَ بِهِ الفَرِيَّا meaning [Verily] thou didst multiply and magnify thy words respecting it: (T: and in like manner this hemistich [which shows, by the measure, that الفَرِيَّا cannot be here a mistake for الفَرْيَا,] is expl. in the S:) it is said that ↓ فَرِىّ thus used is of the measure فَعيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, from فَرَى signifying “ he cut ” [or “ cut lengthwise ” or “ slit ”] a hide, or leather; (Har p. 257; [where see more;]) [and this assertion is corroborated by the fact that] one says of a man strenuous, or vigorous, in an affair, and strong, وَيَقُدُّ ↓ تَرَكْتُهُ يَفْرِى الفَرِىَّ [lit. I left him slitting, or cutting, the slit, or cut, thing, and shaping]. (T.) b6: فَرَى is also synonymous with افترى: see the latter, in two places. b7: فَرَى البَرْقُ, aor. and inf. n. as above, signifies The lightning shone, or glistened, or shone with flickering light, and continued, in the sky. (T, TA.) A2: فَرِىَ, (T, S, M, K,) aor. ـْ (T, S,) inf. n. فَرًى, (T, S, K, but omitted in the CK,) He was, or became, confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course; syn. بَهِتَ, (T,) and دَهِشَ, (T, S, M, K,) and تَحَيَّرَ, (S, K,) and بَطِرَ: (Skr, on the verse here following:) El-Aalam El-Hudhalee says, وَفَرِيتُ مِنْ فَزَعٍ فَلَا

أَرْمِى وَلَا وَدَّعْتُ صَاحِبْ [And I became confounded, &c., by reason of fright, so that I did not shoot an arrow, nor bade I farewell to a friend]: (T, M:) or, accord. to As, فَرِىَ, aor. ـْ signifies he looked, and knew not what he should do: (T:) and فَرِيتُ signifies also I wondered; from ↓ الفَرِىُّ meaning “ that which is wonderful. ” (Skr, on the verse above-cited.) 2 فَرَّىَ see 1, first quarter, in three places.4 أَفْرَىَ see 1, former half, in seven places: b2: and also in the latter half, near the middle of the paragraph.5 تفرّى It became slit, or cut lengthwise; (S, M, Msb, K;) as also ↓ انفرى; (S, M, Msb;) both said of a skin, (M,) or of a thing: (S:) or it became much slit, or rent; said of the sewing of a leathern water-skin. (T.) And تفرّى عَنْهُ ثَوْبُهُ His garment became much slit, or rent, from him. (T.) And تفرّت العَيْنُ (tropical:) The spring of water burst forth: (K, TA:) or تفرّت الأَرْضُ بِالعُيُونِ (tropical:) The earth, or ground, burst with the springs. (S, M, A, TA.) b2: [Hence,] the saying of Kabeesah Ibn-Jábir, تَفَرَّى بَيْضُهَا عَنَّا فَكُنَّا بَنِى الأَجْلَادِ مِنْهَا وَالرِّمَالِ i. e. (assumed tropical:) Its eggs (the pronoun in بيضها denoting the earth) burst from us [so as to disclose us], so that we were the sons of the hard tracts thereof and of the soft tracts, or plains, [or of the sands,] meansonly their numerousness, and the wide extent of their districts. (Ham p. 341.) b3: And تفرّى اللَّيْلُ عَنْ صُبْحِهِ (tropical:) [The night became distinct, as though cleft, from its dawn]. (TA.) 7 إِنْفَرَىَ see the next preceding paragraph.8 إِفْتَرَىَ افترىكَذِبًا He forged, or fabricated, a lie, or falsehood; (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) you say, افترى عَلَيْهِ كَذِبًا [he forged against him a lie]; (Mgh, Msb;) and كَذِبًا ↓ فَرَى signifies the same, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) aor. ـْ (Msb,) inf. n. فَرْىٌ; (M;) and this verb likewise is followed by عَلَيْهِ: (Msb:) ↓ فَرَى in this sense is mentioned as said by Lth; others saying افترى. (T.) افترى is used in the Kur in relation also to the attributing a copartner to God: thus in the saying [in iv. 51], وَمَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللّٰهِ فَقَدِ افْتَرِىإِثمًا عَظِيمًا [And whoso attributeth a copartner to God, hath devised an enormous sin]. (Er-Rághib, TA.) فَرْيَةٌ Clamour; or a confusion, or mixture, of cries or shouts or noises. (M, K, TA. [الحَلْبَةُ in the CK is a mistake for الجَلَبَةُ.]) فِرْيَةٌ A lie, or falsehood; (S, * M, Mgh, * Msb, * K, TA;) a subst. from اِفْتَرَى: (S, Mgh, Msb, TA:) and meaning [also] a defamation: (Mgh:) pl. فِرًى. (TA.) b2: And An affair, or a case, of great magnitude or moment or gravity. (M, TA.) فرِىٌّ Slit, or cut lengthwise; applied to a skin (جِلْدٌ): and so فَرِيَّةٌ [app. as applied to a قِرْبَة or the like, as being fem. of فَرِىٌّ]. (M, TA.) b2: and A wide دَلْو [or leathern bucket]; (M, K;) as though it were slit; (M;) as also فَرِيَّةٌ. (K.) b3: And A thing forged, or fabricated; (S, K, TA;) thus [or rather as hence meaning unknown, or unheard of,] in the saying, لَقَدْجِئْتِ شَيْئًا فَرِيًّا, in the Kur [xix. 28], (S, TA,) i. e. [Thou hast done] a thing hitherto unknown; a thing deemed strange: (Bd:) or a thing of great magnitude or moment or gravity; (S, K, TA;) and thus it is said to mean in the phrase above cited: (S, TA:) or wonderful; (T, TA;) thus as expl. by Er-Rághib; (TA;) and thus it is also said to mean in that phrase. (T, TA.) b4: See also 1, latter half, in eight places.

A2: Also, applied to a man, A forger, or fabricator, of lies; and so ↓ مِفْرًى. (Lh, M, TA.) A3: And Milk of the time when it is milked. (K.) A4: And they say, الفَرِىَّ الفَرِىَّ, meaning العَجَلَةَ العَجَلَةَ [i. e. Haste: haste: used in an imperative sense; as inf. ns. are often thus used; but they are] both like غَنِىّ [in measure]: mentioned by Sgh. (TA.) أَفْرَى الفِرَى occurs in a trad. as meaning The most lying of lies: الفِرَى is the pl. of فِرْيَةٌ. (TA.) مِفْرَّى: see فَرِىٌّ.

مَفْرِيَّةٌ A مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag] made in a good, or proper, manner; well made. (T, TA.)
