أ1 خَطڤاَخَطِئَ is syn. with ↓ اخطأ, inf. n. إِخْطَآءٌ and ↓ خَاطِئَةٌ, (K,) which latter, mentioned by AAF, on the authority of Az, is extr. in the case of a triliteral [unaugmented] verb, and more so in the case of a quadriliteral [i. e. a triliteral augmented by one letter]; (TA;) and with ↓ تخطّأ; signifying He did wrong; or committed a mistake, or an error: (K:) [and if this and similar explanations be correct, خَطَأْ may be an inf. n. of the first of these verbs, and a quasi-inf. n. of the second and third:] or ↓ اخطأ and ↓ تخطّأ have this signification: (S:) and خَطِئَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. خِطْءٌ and خِطْأَةٌ, (S, K,) signifies he committed a sin, a crime, or an act of disobedience for which he deserved punishment: (S, K: *) or he committed a fault or an offence or an act of disobe dience [in an absolute sense]: (K, * TA:) or, accord. to AO, (Msb,) or A' Obeyd, (TA,) خَطِئَ, inf. n. خِطْءٌ, signifies he committed a fault, an offence, or an act of disobedience, unintentionally; as also ↓ اخطأ: (Msb, TA:) or, as others say, خَطِئَ means [he committed a fault, &c.,] in religion; and ↓ اخطأ, in anything; intentionally or unintentionally: (Msb:) خَطِئَ, in religion; and ↓ اخطأ, in calculation [&c.]: (As, M, TA:) or, accord. to Ibn-'Arafeh, (TA,) you say, خَطِئَ فِى دِينِهِ, (K, TA, [in a MS. copy of the K and in the CK, * فى ذَنْبِهِ,]) and ↓ اخطأ, meaning he pursued a wrong way in his religion, intentionally or otherwise: (K, TA:) or خَطِئَ signifies he committed an act of disobedience intentionally; (Msb, TA;) so accord. to the 'Ináyeh, and the like is said in the A; (TA;) and ↓اخطأ, he did wrong, meaning to do right: (Az, Msb, TA:) [and this distinction is agreeable with general usage:] accord. to AHeyth, you say, خَطِئْتَ بِمَا صَنَعْتُهُ [Thou didst wrong, in that which thou didst,] intentionally; and ↓أَخْطَأْتَ مَا صَنَعْتَهُ [or بِمَا صنعتة or فِيمَا صنعته Thou didst wrong, in that which thou didst,] unintentionally.

أَخْطَأْتُ فَخَطِّئْنِى [If I do wrong, &c., tell me that I have done so]. (S.) b2: Also He made it to miss: so in the saying, خَطَّأَ اللّٰهُ نَوْءَهَا God made, or may God make, its [i. e. a land's] star, or asterism, to miss; so that the rain which the star or asterism should have brought did not, or shall not, fall upon it. (TA.) This was [also] said by I'Ab [in a tropical sense] with reference to a woman, as an imprecation, in disapproval of her conduct. (Mgh.) As some relate this saying, the verb is خَطَّى, (Mgh, TA,) and the meaning, God made, or may God make, its [rain-giving] star or asterism, to pass it over, and not send rain upon it: and in this case it may be, (TA,) or it is, (Mgh,) from خَطِيطَةٌ, signifying “ a land not rained upon (Mgh, TA) between two lands that have been rained upon; ” (Mgh;) the verb being originally خَطَّطَ, and the final ط being changed into ى. (Mgh, TA. [See art خط.]) نَوْء is [here] the sing. of أَنْوَآءٌ meaning the “ Mansions of the Moon,” also called the “ stars, or asterisms, of rain. ” (Mgh.) [See more in the first paragraph of art. خط: and see also 4 in the present art.] Accord. to Fr, خَطَّى السَّهْمَ and خَطَّأَهُ are syn.

And خَطَّأَ عَنْكَ السُّوْءُ [app. for ↓تَخَطَّأَ] Evil missed thee, or may evil miss thee. (Az.) 4 اخطأ, inf. n. إِخْطَآءٌ and خَاطِئَةٌ: see 1, in eight places. أَخْطَيْتُ, for أَخْطَأْتُ, should not be said: (S:) it is a word of weak authority; or a mispronunciation: (K:) but some use it; (S, Sgh, TA;) because a change of this kind is generally allowed by some of the writers on inflection. (TA.) See also 5.

A2: اخطأهُ, (S, K,) which signifies, He [or it] missed, or failed of hitting, it [or him], (TA,) and ↓تخاطأهُ (S, K) and ↓تخطّأهُ (K) and لَهُ ↓تخطّأ (TA) [and ↓خَطِئَهُ, as will be seen from what follows,] are syn.

(Mgh. [See also 2.]) And اخطأهُ The right, or due, was, or became, [out of his reach,] or far from him. (Msb.) Owfà Ibn-Matar ElMázinee says, النَّبْلُ أَحْشَآءَهُ↓تَخَاطَأَتِ [meaning The arrows missed his bowels]. (S.) And AO, (S,) or A' Obeyd, (TA,) says that ↓خَطِئَ and اخطأ are syn.; citing, as an ex., the saying of Imra-el-Keys, يَا لَهْفَ هِنْدٍ إِذْ خَطِئْنَ كَاهِلَا (S, TA,) meaning [O the grief of Hind,] when they (the troop of horse) missed the sons of Káhil; (TA;) خطئن being here used in the sense of أَخْطَأْنَ, (S, TA,) which latter, accord. to Az, is the more proper in this case. (TA.) A3: مَا أَخْطَأَهُ is an expression of wonder [meaning How sinful, or criminal, or intentionally-disobedient, or intentionally-wrongdoing, is he !] from خَطِئَ, not from أَخْطَأَ.

خَطَأٌ A wrong action; a mistake, or an error; contr. of صَوَابٌ; as also ↓خَطَآءٌ (S, Msb, K) and ↓خَطْءٌ: (K:) accord. to some, it is syn. with خَطِيْئَةٌ and خِطْءٌ; and is an inf. n. used as a simple subst; but accord. to others, (TA,) it signifies an unintentional fault or offence or disobedience; (K, TA;) a subst. from أَخْطَأَ: (M, Msb: [see 1, first sentence:]) and accord. to the M, ↓خَطَآءٌ is a subst. from خَطِئ [and therefore syn. with خَطِيْئَةٌ accord. to the general acceptation of خَطِئَ].

(L.) b2: خَطِيْئَةٌ يَوْمٌ and خَطِيْئَةٌ لَيْلَةٌ are expressions like طِيلٌ يَوْمٌ and طِيلٌ لَيْلَةٌ: you say, خَطِيْئَةٌ يَوْمٌ يَمُرُّ بِى إِلَّا أَرَى فِيهِ فُلَانًا [app. meaning It were a crime that a day should pass with me without my seeing in it such a one; or perhaps, it is a rare event that a day passes with me &c. : see what follows].

[See خَطِئَ, of which it is the part. n.] b2: [Also Missing the mark. Hence the saying,] مَعَ الخَوَاطِئِ سَهْمٌ صَائِبٌ [With those that miss is an arrow that goes right, or hits the mark]; (S, K;) خَوَاطِئُ being pl. of خَاطِئَةٌ, meaning that misses the butt: (Har p. 481:) a prov., (S,) applied to him who frequently errs, but sometimes does right; (S, K;) or to the niggard who sometimes gives notwithstanding his niggardliness.

(A, TA.) b4: يَدٌ مُخَصَّرَةٌ, or ↓ مَخْصُورَةٌ, (as in different copies of the K,) or both, (TA,) (tropical:) An arm, or a hand, in the wrist of which is what is termed ↓ تَخْصِيرٌ, as though it were bound: or which has an encircling groove-like depression. (K, TA.) b5: نَعْلٌ مُخَصَّرَةٌ (tropical:) A sandal narrow in the middle. (S, * A, * K, TA.) b6: See also خَصْرٌ.

مَخَاصِرُ pl. of مِخْصَرَةٌ. (S, TA.) A2: مَخَاصِرُ الطَّرِيقِ The nearest roads or ways; (K;) as also ↓ المُخْتَصَرَاتُ: (TA:) or مُخْتَصِرَاتُ الطُّرُقِ signifies The roads, or ways, that are near, notwithstanding their ruggedness, but not so easy as those that are longer. (L.) المُخْتَصَرَاتُ, or مُخْتَصِرَاتُ الطُّرُقِ: see the paragraph next preceding.

(MF.)

مر

أ1 مَرُؤَ الطَّعَامُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. مَرَآءَةٌ, epithet مَرِىْءٌ; and مَرِئَ, (S, K,) and مَرَأَ, aor. ـَ (K;) and ↓ استمرأ; (TA;) The food was, or became, wholesome, or approved in its result: (Z:) or easy to swallow, and wholesome, or approved in its result: (K:) or easy to swallow, not attended by trouble: or quick in digesting. (Z.) It is said in the Keshsháf, on ch. iv., v. 3, of the Kur, that هَنِىْءٌ and مَرِىْءٌ are two epithets from هَنَأَ الطَّعَامُ and مَرَأَ, “the food was easy to swallow; not attended by trouble:” or the former epithet signifies “ pleasant, or productive of enjoyment, to the eater; ” and the latter, “wholesome, or approved in its result: ” or the former, food or drink that is “ not succeeded by harm, even after its digestion;” and the latter, that which is “ quick in digesting. ” (TA.) In conjunction with هَنَأَنِى, one says مَرَأَنِى (هنأنى الطَّعَامُ ومرأنى), (Fr. S, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. مَرْءٌ; (Akh, S;) and in conjunction with هَنِئَنِى, مَرِئَنِى; (TA [also mentioned in the S, on the authority of Akh];) and alone, (i. e. not in conjunction with هنأنى or هنئنى,) ↓ أَمْرَأَنِى, (Fr, S, K,) inf. n. إِمْرَآءٌ, (Az,) [It (food) was wholesome to me, &c. (see above):] it was light to my stomach, and descended thence well. (TA.) But مَرَأَنِى also occurs in this sense without هَنَأَنِى. (TA.) b2: مَرِئَ الطَّعَامَ, and ↓ استمرأهُ, [He found the food wholesome, &c.] (S.) (See above.]

الطَّعَامَ ↓ استمرأ, signifies عَدَّهُ مَرِيْئًا. (MA.) b3: مَرَأَ, aor. ـَ He fed; or ate food. (K.) Ex.

مَا لَكَ لَا تَمْرَأُ What aileth thee, that thou dost not eat? (TA.) b4: مَرُؤَتِ الأَرْضُ, inf. n. مَرَاءَةٌ, The land was, or became salubrious, in its air. (K.) b5: مَرُؤَ, aor. ـُ (Az, S, K,) inf. n. مُرُوْءَةٌ, (K,) epithet مَرِىْءٌ, (S, K,) He was, or became, possessed of مُرُوْءَة; (Az, S, K;) sometimes written and pronounced مُرُوَّة; (S;) i. e., manliness; (S, K;) manly perfection; (TA;) consisting in abstinence from things unlawful, or in chastity of manners, and the having some art or trade; (El-Ahnaf;) or in abstaining from doing secretly what one would be ashamed to do openly; (TA;) or in the habit of doing what is approved, and shunning what is held base; (El-Khafájee;) or in preserving the soul from filthy actions, and what disgraces in the estimation of men; or in good manners, and guarding the tongue, and shunning impudence; (TA;) or in a quality of the mind by preserving which a man is made to persevere in good manners and habits: (Msb:) [in a word, virtue; or rather manly virtue or moral goodness.]

A2: مَرَأَ Inivit feminam. (K.) b2: مَرِئَ He became like a woman, in external appearance, or in talk. (K.) 4 هٰذَا يُمْرِئُ الطَّعَامَ [This makes the food wholesome, &c.] (Az.) (See مَرُؤَ.) 5 تمرّأ He affected, or endeavoured to acquire, (تَكَلَّفَ,) manliness, مُرُوْءَة: (Az, S, K:) accord. to some, he became possessed of that quality. (TA.) b2: تمرّأ بِهِمْ He sought to acquire the character of manliness (مُرُوْءَة) by disparaging them and vituperating them. (ISk, S, K.) b3: لَا يَتَمَرَّأْ أَحَدُكُمْ بِالدُّنْيَا (a trad.) [app., Let not any one of you delight himself in the present world]: but accord. to one relation, it is لَا يَتَمَرْأَى, from الرُّؤْيَةُ: [see art. رأى]. (TA.) [See also تَهَنَّأَ.]10 إِسْتَمْرَاَ see 1.

مَرْءٌ and ↓ مُرْءٌ (S, K) and ↓ مِرْءٌ (K) A man, or human being; syn. إِنْسَانٌ: (K:) or a man as opposed to a child or a woman; syn. رَجُلٌ. (S, K.) You say مَرْءٌ in the nom., مَرْءًا in the acc., and مَرْءٍ in the gen., (S,) agreeably with analogy. (TA.) And some say مُرْءٌ in the nom., مَرْءًا in the acc., and مِرْءٍ in the gen.; doubly declining the word. (TA, and some copies of the S.) And ↓ مِرْء is said to be of the dial. of Hudheyl. It is said that no pl. is formed from مرء; but مَرْؤُونَ occurs as its pl. in the following words of a trad.; أَحْسِنُوا أَمْلَاءَكُمْ أَيُّهَا المُرْؤُونَ [Amend your manners, O ye men!]; and in the saying of Ru-beh, أَيْنَ يُرِيدُ المرؤون [Whither do the men desire to go?]. (TA.) It forms a dual; مَرْآنِ: CCC they say هُمَا مِرْآنِ صَالِحَانِ [They are two just men] (S) in the dial. of Hudheyl. (TA.) It also forms a dim., مُرَىْءٌ, fem. مُرَيْئَةٌ. (S.) b2: The fem. of مَرْءٌ is مَرْأَةٌ, A woman: [and a wife:] also written and pronounced مَرَةٌ. (S, K.) b3: مرء is also written with the conjunctive ا: you say امْرَأٌ in the nom., امْرَأً in the acc., and امْرَأٍ in the gen.: also, امْرُؤٌ in the nom., امْرُؤًا in the acc., and امْرُؤٍ in the gen.: also, امْرُؤٌ in the nom., امْرَأً in the acc., and امْرِئٍ in the gen.; doubly declining the word. (S, K, TA.) [The last three forms are the most common in classical works: but in ordinary parlance, in the present day, the word is generally pronounced with fet-h to the ر in each case. The final ء is also often written without the ا or و or ى.] Ks and Fr say, that the word is doubly declined, as to the ر and ء, because the final ء is often omitted. (T, TA.) [When the disjunctive ا is substituted for the conjunctive, i. e., when the word is immediately preceded by a quiescence, its vowel is kesr: thus you say اِمْرَأٌ &c.; and thus also in the fem. The name of the famous poet اِمْرَأُ القَيْسِ CCC is commonly pronounced Imra-el- Keys and Imr-el-Keys.] b4: The fem. is امْرَأَةٌ, A woman: [and a wife:] but with ال you say المَرْأَةُ: الاِمْرَأَةُ [which is authorized by the K] is also said to be established by usage; but most of the expositors of the Fs reject this; and those who allow it to be correct judge it of weak authority: IO mentions also امْرَاةٌ, with soft ا after the ر. (TA.) b5: امْرَءٌ is also used in a fem. sense; (S;) though this is extr.: ex. إِنَّهَا لَامْرَءَ صِدْق [Verily she is an excellent woman: see صِدْقٌ]. (TA.) And امْرَأَةٌ is used, in a trad., as signifying a perfect woman: لَقَدْ تَزَوَّجْتَ امْرَأَةً

Indeed thou hast married a perfect woman: like as you say فُلَانٌ رَجُلٌ, meaning “ Such a one is a perfect man. ” (TA.) b6: Also, اِمْرَأٌ or امْرُؤٌ, (S,) or مَرْءٌ, (K,) signifies A wolf: (S, K:) or, as Z and others assert, it is tropical in this sense. Yoo says, that the poet means, by امرؤ, in the following verse, a wolf: وَأَنْتَ امْرُؤٌ تَعْدُو عَلَى كُلِّ غِرَّةٍ

فَتُخْطِئُ فِيهَا مَرَّةً وَتُصِيبُ [And thou art a wolf that assaultest on every occasion of carelessness; and sometimes thou missest therein, and (sometimes) thou attainest thine object]. (TA.) b7: The rel. n. of امْرَءٌ is مَرَئِىٌّ (as in one copy of the S) or مُرَئِىٌّ (as in another copy) and أَمَرِىٌّ. (S, and El-Ashmoonee and others.) [For the last, Golius, from a copy of the S, gives اِمْرَئِىٌّ: and in one copy of the S, I find it written أَمْرَئِىٌّ: but I have not met with any confirmation of either of these two forms.]

مَرَئِىٌّ seems to be formed from مَرْءٌ; but is extr.; the analogous form being مَرْئِىٌّ. (TA.) مَرَأٌ A giving of food on the occasion of building a house, or marrying. (TA.) مَرِىْءٌ [The œsophagus, or gullet of a slaughtered camel, or sheep or goat, (S,) and of a man, (Zj, in his Khalk el-Insán,) the canal through which the food and drink pass; (S, K;) the head of the stomach; (K;) contiguous, (S,) or adherent (K) to the حُلْقُوم [or windpipe]; (S, K;) through which the food and drink pass, and by which they enter: (TA;) pl. [of pauc.] أَمْرِئَةٌ (K) and [of mult.] مُرُؤٌ. (S, K.) It is also written مَرِىٌّ. (TA.) b2: يَأْتِينا فِى مِثْلِ مَرِىْءِ النَّعَامِ [It comes to us as it were through the gullet of the ostrich]: a proverbial expression, from a trad., alluding to paucity of food; the ostrich being particularized because of the slenderness of its neck, whence is inferred the narrowness of its gullet. (TA.) b3: Wholesome, &c. (See مَرُؤَ.) b4: هَنِيْئًا مَرِيْئًا: see art. هنأ and see 1 in the present art. b5: غَيْثٌ مَرِىْءٌ [A rain productive of good result]. (TA.) b6: كَلَأٌ مَرِىْءٌ Wholesome herbage. (K.) b7: أَرْضٌ مَرِيْئَةٌ A land salubrious in its air. (K.) b8: مَرِىْءٌ Manly, &c. (See مَرُؤَ.) مَرَآءَةٌ: see مَرُؤَ.

مُرُوْءَةٌ and مُرُوَّةٌ: see مَرُؤَ امْرَأٌ and امْرَأَةٌ &c: see مَرْءٌ.

مُمْرِئٌ act. part. n. of 4, Wholesome food. (S.) [See 4, and مَرِىءٌ.]
