(TA.) لَا تَنِبُّوا عِنْدِى نَبِيبَ التُّيُوسِ (assumed tropical:) Do not cry out [in my presence like as he-goats rattle at rutting-time].

(K.) b2: إِنِّى أَرَى الشَّرَّ نَبَّبَ (assumed tropical:) [Verily I see evil, or the evil, to have grown, like a plant producing knotted stems]. (TA.) 4 انببهُ طُولُ العُزْبَةِ (assumed tropical:) [Length of celibacy made him to be desirous of sexual intercourse]. (TA.) b2: انبّ, inf. n. إِنْبَابٌ, if not a mistake for انبت, inf. n. انبات, meaning “ he became pubescent,”

probably signifies He was excited, and uttered libidinous sounds, with the desire of sexual intercourse. (TA.) See R. Q. 1.5 تنبّب It (water) was made to flow; or was set a flowing. (K.) R. Q. 1 see 1. b2: نَبْنَبَ (tropical:) He (a man, TA) talked nonsense, (and uttered libidinous sounds, TA,) in concubitu: (K:) implying his acting like a he-goat at rutting-time.

أُنْبُوبٌ see أُنبُوبَةٌ. b2: أُنْبُوبُ قَرْنٍ (assumed tropical:) That part of a horn that is above the knotty portion, to the extremity: [i. e., the smooth part].

(TA.) b5: أَنَابِيبُ الرِّئَةِ (tropical:) The [bronchi, or] air-passages of the lungs. (K.) ↓ أَنْبُبٌ or أُنْبُبٌ is said to signify the same, in an instance mentioned by IAar, in which a poet speaks of the substance resembling lights which a camel in heat protrudes from his mouth, and which is called غِيلَة, as coming forth بَيْنَ الأَُنْبُبِ: in which case, the word, if أَنْبُب, may be a pl., regularly أَنُبّ, of which the sing. is نَبٌّ; or, if with dammeh to the hemzeh, it may be a contraction of أُنْبُوب, used as a coll. gen. n., in a pl. sense. (TA.) b6: أُنْبُوبٌ A way, or road. (K.) [Ex.] إِلْزَمِ الأُنْبُوبَ Keep to the way, or road.

(TA.) أُنْبُوبَةٌ An internodal portion of a reed or cane; such a portion thereof as intervenes between two joints, or knots: (Lth, S:) i. q. كَعْبٌ, [which signifies as above, and also a joint, or knot,] with reference to a reed, or cane, or a spear-shaft: (K:) as also ↓ أُنْبُوبٌ (Lth, K) and ↓ أُنْبُبٌ, which latter is probably a contraction: (K:) [see below:] or the pl. of انبوبة is أُنْبُوبٌ and أَنَابِيبُ: (S:) [or انبوب is a coll. gen. n., of which the n. un. is انبوبة, and the pl. انابيب: see also art. انب]. b2: [Hence,] اِجْعَلِ الأَمْرَ أُنْبُوبَةً وَاحِدَةً Make thou the affair, or case, [uniform, or] one uniform thing. (Fr. in TA in art. بأج.) b3: [Also, A sheath of a plant. See أُمْصُوخَةٌ. b4: And Any kind of tube. See قَصَبٌ.]

حنظل

Q. 1 حَنْظَلَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ The tree became bitter in its fruit [like the حَنْظَل]. (AHei, TA.) حَنْظَلٌ [The colocynth; cucumis colocynthis;] a certain bitter plant; (Msb;) [and its fruit;] well known; (K;) i. q. شَرْىٌ: (S:) n. un. with ة: (S, Msb, K: *) [accord. to Freytag (who refers to Avic. p. 175, and Sprengel. hist. rei herb. vol. i. p. 269,) applied also to the momordica elaterium, or cucumis prophetarum:] there is a male species, and a female; the former fibrous; the latter soft, or easily broken, white, and easy to swallow: (TA:) the choice sort of it is the yellow; (K;) or, accord. to the “ Kánoon ” of the Ra-ees [Ibn-Seenà, from which the description of its properties and uses, in the K and TA, is, with some slight variations, taken], the white, very white, and soft; for the black and the hard are bad, and it is not plucked until it becomes yellow, and the greenness has completely gone from it; (TA:) its pulp attenuates the thick phlegmatic humour that flows upon the joints (K, TA) and tendons, (TA,) when swallowed (K, TA) in the dose of of twelve keeráts, (TA,) or used in the manner of a cluster: it is beneficial for melancholy, and epilepsy, and the [sort of doting termed] وَسْوَاس, and alopecia (دَآء الثَّعْلَب), and elephantiasis (الجُذَام), (K, TA,) and [the disease of the tumid leg, termed] دَآء الفِيل; for these three used by rubbing; and for the cold نِقْرِس [i. e. arthritis, or gout], (TA,) and for the bite of vipers, and the sting of scorpions, especially its root; (K, TA;) for this last being the most beneficial of medicines; a drachm of its root, administered to an Arab stung by a scorpion in four places, being said to have cured him on the spot: that which is plucked green relaxes [the bowels] excessively, and produces excessive vomiting: so in the “ Kánoon: ” (TA:) it is also beneficial for the tooth-ache, by fumigating with its seeds; and for killing fleas, by sprinkling what is cooked thereof; and for the sciatica, by rubbing with what is green thereof: (K, TA:) its root is cooked with vinegar, and one rinses the mouth with it for the tooth-ache; and the vinegar is cooked in it in hot ashes: when cooked in olive-oil, that oil, being dropped [into the ear-hole], is beneficial for ringing in the ears: it is beneficial also for the moist and flatulent colic: and sometimes it attenuates the blood: administered as a suppository in the vagina, it kills the fœtus: (TA:) when the plant bears a single fruit, this is very deadly. (K, TA.) [See also هَبِيدٌ.] Accord. to [many of] the leading authorities among the Arabs, (TA,) the ن in this word is augmentative; (Msb, TA;) because of their saying, حَظِلَ البَعِيرُ, meaning “ the camel became sick from eating حَنْظَل; ” and J and Sgh [and Fei and others] have mentioned it in art. حظل: but ISd says that this is not an evidence of its being radically triliteral; and that حَظِلَ is like ضَغْبَةٌ (as an epithet applied to a woman) from الضَّغَابِيسُ, which must be acknowledged to be radically quadriliteral. (TA.)

برقش

Q. 1 برْقَشَهُ, (S, A, TA,) inf. n. بَرْقَشَةٌ, (TA,) He variegated it with divers, or different, colours; (S, TA;) from أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ, the bird so called: (S:) or he adorned him, or it. (A.) [See also بَرْقَشَةٌ, below.] b2: Hence, بَرْقَشَ قَوْلَهُ (assumed tropical:) He embellished his saying. (Har p. 235.) Q. 2 تَبَرْقَشَ He adorned himself (A, K) with various colours. (K.) You say, تَبَرْقَشَ لَنَا He adorned himself with various colours for us: (K:) or with various colours of every kind. (TA.) And تَبَرْقَشَتْ She assumed various colours: or she varied in dispositions: syn. تَلَوَّنَتْ. (A.) and تبرقش البَيْتُ The house, or chamber, or tent, became variegated. (TA.) And تبرقشت البِلَادُ The countries became adorned with various colours; from أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ. (TA.) بِرْقِشٌ A certain bird, (S, K,) different from that called أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ, (K, accord. to the TA, [ for we there read طَائِرٌ آخَرُ; the bird called ابو براقش having been mentioned before; but in the CK, in the place of آخَرُ, we find أَخْضَرُ, i. e., green;]) of small size, (S, TA,) that assumes various colours, of the kind called حُمَّر, (TA,) like the sparrow, (S, TA,) and called شُرْشُورٌ (S, K) by the people of El-Hijáz: (S, TA:) but Az states his having heard certain of the Arabs of the desert call it ابو براقش. (TA.) بَرْقَشَةٌ The diversity of colour of that which is termed أَرْقَشُ. (K.) [See also 1.]

أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ A certain bird that assumes various colours; (S;) a small wild bird, like the قَنْفُذ [or hedge-hog, but قُنْفُذ is probably a mistranscription for قُنْبُر, or lark], the upper part of whose feathers is dust-coloured (أَغْبَرُ, as in the K, accord. to the TA), or white (أَغَرُّ, as in some copies of the K), and the middle red, and the lower part black, so that when it is roused, or provoked, it ruffles its feathers and becomes variously changed in colour: (Lth, K:) or a certain bird that is found in the trees called عِضَاه, and the colour of which is between blackness and whiteness, having six قَوَادِم [or primary feathers], three on each side, heavy in the rump, that makes a noise with its wings when it flies, and assumes various colours: (IKh:) a certain variegated bird. (TA in art. ابو.) b2: .) b3: [Hence,] هُوَ أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ (assumed tropical:) He is varying, or variable, in dispositions. (A, TA.) الجَارُ البَرَاقِشِيُّ The neighbour that is variable in his actions; like الجَارُ اليَرْبُوعِىىُّ. (IAar Ta in art. جور.]

ضرغم

Q. 1 ضَرْغَمَتِ الأَبْطَالُ, [inf. n. ضَرْغَمَةٌ,] (assumed tropical:) The men of valour acted like lions; as also ↓ تَضَرْغَمَت: (K:) or, as some say, الضَّرْغَمَةُ and ↓ التَّضَرْغُمُ signify (assumed tropical:) the choosing of valiant men [app. as antagonists] in war, or battle. (TA.) And you say, ضَرْغَمَ الأَبْطَالُ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا فِى الحَرْبِ (assumed tropical:) [The men of valour attacked one another like lions in war, or battle]. (S, TA.) Q. 2 تَضَرْغَمَ: see what precedes, in two places.

ضِرْغَمٌ, or ضَرْغَمٌ: see the next paragraph.

ضِرْغَامٌ, (MA, K, and so in some copies of the S,) and ↓ ضِرْغَامَةٌ, (MA, K, and so in other copies of the S,) and ↓ ضِرْغَمٌ, (MA,) or ↓ ضَرْغَمٌ, like جَعْفَرٌ, (K, TA,) The lion: (S, MA, K:) or a lion accustomed to prey, strong, and bold. (TA.) b2: And الضِّرْغَامُ is also applied to (assumed tropical:) The constellation of the Lion. (Ham p. 110.) ضِرْغَامَةٌ: see ضِرْغَامٌ. b2: Hence, as being likened to a lion, (TA,) (tropical:) Courageous; (K, TA;) as an epithet applied to a man. (TA.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) A powerful stallion [camel]. (K.) b4: And (tropical:) A strong man; (K, TA;) as being likened to a lion. (TA.) b5: And ضِرْغَامَةٌ مِنْ طِينٍ is said in the Nawádir el-Aaráb to mean Slime, or mire. (TA.)

قرفص

Q. 1 قَرْفَصَ [قَرْفَصَ: see قُرْفُصَآءُ, below.]

A2: قَرْفَصَهُ, (JK, TA,) inf. n. قَرْفَصَةٌ (JK, S, K) and قِرْفَاصٌ, (TA,) He bound his arms beneath his legs: (JK, K:) or he drew him together, (namely, a man,) binding his legs and arms. (S.) b2: [Hence,] قَرْفَصَةٌ also signifies A certain mode of coitus, in which the woman's extremities are drawn together, so that the man makes fast here arms beneath her legs: (JK, K:) transmitted by Ibn-'Abbád. (TA.) Q. 2 تَقَرْفَصَتْ She (an old woman) wrapped herself up in her clothes. (JK, K.) قُرْفُصَى and its variations: see what follows.

قُرْفُصَآءُ, with damm, (K,) [in a copy of the S written without any vowel-sign to the ف,] or قُرْفَصَآءُ, (so in a copy of the S) or both, (El-Ashmoonee, in his Expos. of the Alfeeyeh of Ibn-'Akeel,) and قُرُفْصَآءُ, with damm to the ق and ر, (IJ, K,) and قُرْفُصَى, (S, * K,) and قِرْفِصَى, (Fr, K,) and قَرْقَصَى, (K,) of all which the first is the most chaste, (TA,) [all inf. ns., of which the verb, accord. to analogy, is قَرْفَصَ, but I have met with no instance of its occurrence,] A certain mode of sitting; (S;) the sitting upon the buttocks, making the thighs cleave to the belly, and putting the arms round the shanks, (A'Obeyd, S, K,) like as a man binds himself with a piece of cloth round his back and shanks; his arms being in the place of the piece of cloth: (A'Obeyd, S:) or the sitting upon the knees, bending down, (مُنْكَبًّا, [in the L مُتَّكِئًا, which is a mistranscription,]) making the belly cleave to the thighs, and putting the hands under the arm-pits; (Abu-l-Mahdee, S, K;) a mode of sitting of the Arabs of the desert: (S:) or the sitting upon the legs, putting the knees together, and contracting the arms to the breast.

سبرت

Q. 1 سَبْرَتَ He begged; and became lowly, humble, or submissive; or affected to be like the مَسَاكِين [or destitute, or needy, &c.]; syn. قَنَعَ; (K, TA; [omitted in the CK, and in my MS. copy of the K erroneously written قَنِعَ;]) and تَمَسْكَنَ. (TA.) سُبْرُتٌ: see سُبْرُوتٌ.

سِبْرَاتٌ: see the next paragraph, in two places.

سُبْرُوتٌ A desert, syn. قَفْرٌ, (S, K,) or a plain, syn. قَاعٌ, (M,) in which is no herbage: (M, K:) or weak land: (TA:) and أَرْضٌ سُبْرُوتٌ and ↓ سِبْرِيتٌ (As, Lh, M) and ↓ سِبْرَاتٌ (M) Land in which is no herbage; (M;) or land in which is nothing: (As, Lh, M:) pl. سَبَارِيتُ and سَبَارٍ, the latter anomalous, mentioned by Lh: (M:) accord. to A'Obeyd, the pl. سَبَارِيتُ signifies deserts, or waterless deserts, (فَلَوَاتٌ,) in which is nothing: and accord. to As, land [or lands] in which nothing grows: (TA:) and one says also أَرْضٌ سَبَارِيتُ, (M, K,) a phrase of the same class as ثَوْبٌ أَخْلَاقٌ, (K,) as though the sing. سُبْرُوتٌ or سِبْرِيتٌ were applied to every portion thereof. (M.) b2: Hence, (TA,) applied to a man, (Az, S, TA,) Needy, in want, indigent, (Az, As, S, M, K, TA,) poor, (Az, As, K, TA,) possessing little, (M, TA,) or, as some say, possessing nothing; (S, * M, TA;) and ↓ سِبْرِيتٌ signifies the same, (Az, S, M, K,) as also ↓ سِبْرَاتٌ, and ↓ سُبْرُتٌ: (M, K:) also bankrupt, or insolvent; syn. مُفْلِسٌ: (TA in explanation of the first [but equally applying to all]:) the epithet applied to a woman is سُبْرُوتَةٌ and ↓ سِبْرِيتَةٌ; (Az, S;) the latter of which is applied to a man [app. in intensive sense, agreeably with analogy,] as well as to a woman: (M:) and the pl. is سَبَارِيتُ, applied to men and to women. (Az, S.) b3: [Hence, also,] applied to a youth, or young man, Beardless; or having no hair upon the sides of his face. (M, K, TA. [In the K, this signification is immediately followed by the mention of the pls. سَبَارِيتُ and سَبَارٍ.]) b4: And Little, or small, in quantity or number; (S, M, K;) paltry, or inconsiderable: (K:) applied to a thing, (S, K,) and (S) to property, or cattle. (S, M.) b5: Also Tall, or long. (M, TA.) b6: And A skilful, or an expert, guide, well acquainted with the lands. (TA.) It is mentioned by Sb, who says that it is of measure فُعْلُولٌ, like زُنْبُورٌ and عُصْفُورٌ; and most hold him to be right: but some of the authors on inflection assert that it is of the measure فُعْلُوتٌ, from سَبَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ meaning “ I tried, proved, or tested, the thing, or proved it by experiment or experience; ” and that the ت is added to give intensiveness to the signification; which several deny: (MF, TA:) سُبْرُورٌ, however, is mentioned in the K, in art. سبر, as meaning “ poor,” and land “ in which is no herbage. ” (TA.) سِبْرِيتٌ and سِبْرِيتَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

سَنْبَرِيتٌ A man (TA) of evil disposition or nature. (K, TA: but omitted in the CK.) مُسَبْرَتٌ Bald, or bare of hair. (K, TA: but omitted in the CK.)

تا

تَا fem. of ذَا; (M;) i. q. ذِهْ [This and that]; (T;) a noun of indication, denoting that which is female or feminine; like ذَا (S, K) applied to that which is male or masculine; (S;) and you say also تِهْ, like ذِهْ: (S, K:) the dual is تَانِ: and the pl., أُولَآءِ. (S, K.) En-Nábighah [Edh-Dhubyánee] says, (T, S,) excusing himself to En-Noamán [Aboo-Káboos], whom he had satirized, (TA,) هَا إِنَّ تَا عِذْرَةٌ إِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ نَفَعَتْ فَإِنَّ صَاحِبَهَا قَدْ تَاهَ فِى البَلَدِ [Now verily this is an excuse: if it profit not, then verily its author has lost his way in the desert, or in the waterless desert]: (T, S: but in the latter, لا is put in the place of لم:) تا here points to the قَصِيدَة [or ode]; and عذرة is a subst from اِعْتِذَارٌ; and تاه means تَحَيَّرَ; and البلد means المَفَازَة. (TA.) The dim. of تَا is تَيَّا, (T, S, M, K,) which is anomalous, like ذَيَّا the dim. of ذَا, &c. (I'Ak p. 343. [Much has been written respecting the formation of this dim. to reduce it to something like rule, but I pass it over as, in my opinion, unprofitable and unsatisfactory; and only refer to what is said respecting the duals أُلَيَّا and أُلَيَّآءِ in art. الى. See an ex. voce مِرَّةٌ.] b2: هَا is prefixed to it (T, S, K) [as an inceptive particle] to give notice of what is about to be said, (S,) so that one says هَاتَا [meaning This], (T, S, K,) as in هَاتَا فُلَانَةُ [This is such a woman]; (T;) and [in the dual] هَاتَانِ; and [in the pl.]

هٰؤُلَآءِ: and the dim. is هَاتَيَّا. (S.) b3: When you use it in addressing another person, you add to it ك [as a particle of allocution], and say تَاكَ (S, K) and تِيكَ and تِلْكَ (T, S, K) and تَلْكَ, which is a bad dial. var., (S, K,) and تَالِكَ, (T, S,) which is the worst of these: (T:) [all meaning That:] the dual is تَانِكَ and تَانِّكَ, the latter with tesh-deed, (S, K, [but in some copies of the S, only the latter is mentioned,]) and تَالِكَ [which, like تَانِّكَ, is dual of تِلْكَ or تَلْكَ, which are contractions of تَالِكَ; these two duals being for تَانِلِكَ, the original, but unused, form]: (K:) the pl. is أُولٰئِكَ [or أُولَآئِكَ] and أُولَاكَ and أُولَالِكَ [respecting all of which see أُلَى, in art. الى]: (S, K:) and the dim. is تَيَّاكَ and تَيَّالِكَ: (K: [in the TA, the latter is erroneously written تَيّانِكَ:]) the ك relates to the person or persons whom you address, masc. and fem. and dual and pl.: [but in addressing a female, you may say تَاكِ &c.; in addressing two persons, تَاكُمَا &c.; in addressing more than two males, تَاكُمْ &c.; and in addressing more than two females, تَاكُنَّ &c.:] what precedes the ك relates to the person [or thing] indicated, masc. and fem. and dual and pl. (S.) b4: هَا is also prefixed to تِيكَ and تَاكَ, so that one says, هَاتِيكَ هِنْدُ and هَاتَاكَ هِنْدُ [This, or that, is Hind]. (S, K. *) Abu-n-Nejm says, جِئْنَا نُحَيِّيكَ وَنَسْتَجْدِيكَا فَافْعَلْ بِنَا هَاتَاكَ أَوْ هَاتِيكَا meaning [We have come saluting thee and seeking of thee a gift: then do thou to us] this or that: [give us] a salutation or a gift. (S.) The هَا that is used to give notice of what is about to be said is not prefixed to تلك because the ل is made a substitute for that ها: (S, TA:) or, as IB says, they do not prefix that ها to ذٰلِكَ and تِلْكَ because the ل denotes the remoteness of that which is indicated and the ها denotes its nearness, so that the two are incompatible. (TA.) A2: تَا and تآءٌ Names of the letter ت: see that letter, and see arts. توأ and تى.

A3: تَا and تَأَا or تَآ for تَشَآء: see (near its end) art. ا.
