[And ↓ شَبِيبَةٌ app. signifies also (assumed tropical:) Youthful folly, or the like; (see an ex. voce غَمْرَةٌ;) and so, probably, does شَبَابٌ.] b3: [Hence,] شَبَابٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The first, or beginning, or the new, or recent, state, of a thing; (K, TA;) and so ↓ شَبِيبَةٌ.

(K.) And A horse having the hoofs much worn (مُنَحَّتُ الحَوَفِرِ, IDrd, K, in the CK الحَافِرِ) by the erosion of the ground, so as to be attenuated. (IDrd, TA.) حُكَاكَةٌ What falls from a thing عِنْدَ الحَكِّ [i. e. on the occasion of scratching, scraping, rubbing, grating, &c.]. (S, K.) And What is scraped, or rubbed, or grated, (مَا حُكَّ,) between two stones, and then used as a collyrium for ophthalmia: (K:) or what is scraped off, or rubbed off, by degrees, (مَا تَحَاكَّ,) between two stones, when one of them is rubbed with the other, for medicine and the like.

حَكَّاكَةٌ (tropical:) A thing that makes an impression upon hearts: pl. حَكَّاكَاتٌ: (IAth, TA:) or the pl. signifies (tropical:) [suggestions of the devil or of the mind, whereby the mind is disturbed; such as are termed]

وَسَاوِسُ: (K, TA:) things that make an impression (تَحُكُّ) upon the heart, and are dubious to a man: such are sins said to be. (TA.) حَاكَّةٌ A tooth: (S, K:) thus called because it rubs, or grates, (تَحُكُّ,) either its fellow or what one eats: an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates. (TA.) So in the saying, مَا بَقِيتَ فِى فِيهِ حَاكَّةٌ [There remained not in his mouth a tooth]. (S.) The Arabs also say, مَا فِيهِ حَاكَّةٌ وَلَا تَا كَّةٌ, meaning There is not in him, or it, a grinder (ضِرْسٌ) nor a dog-tooth. (Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà, TA.) أَحَكُّ: see حَكِيكٌ b2: Also A man (TA) having no حَاكَّة, i. e., no tooth, in his mouth.

الجِذْلُ المُحَكَّكُ [The rubbing-post; i. e.] the thing that is set up in the place where camels lie down, at their watering-place, for the mangy camels to rub against it. (S, K.) Hence the saying of El-Hobáb Ibn-El-Mundhir El-Ansáree, (S,) أَنَا جُذَيْلُهَا المُحَكَّكُ وَعُذَيْقُهَا المُرَجَّبُ, [see جِذْلٌ,] meaning I am he by means of whose counsel, or advice, and forecast, relief is sought: (S, K: *) or it has another meaning, preferred by Az, i. e., that the sayer was one who had been strengthened by experience, who had experienced and known affairs, and been tried, or proved, by them, and found to be one who bore up against difficulty, strong and firm, such as would not flee from his adversary: or the meaning is, I am, exclusively of [the rest of] the Ansár, a rubbing-post for him who would oppose me, and with me should the stubborn be coupled: the dim. form is here used for the purpose of aggrandizement. (TA.) [See also حِكَاكٌ.]

حر

حَرَّ, see. Pers\. حَرِرْتَ, aor. ـَ (S, A, Msb, K;) and حَرَّ, sec. Pers\. حَرَرْتَ, aor. ـِ and حَرُّ; inf. n. حَرٌّ and حُرُورٌ (S, Msb, K) and حَرَارَةٌ, (S, K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and حِرَّةٌ; (TA;) and ↓ احرّ, (S, K,) a dial. var. heard by Ks, (S,) and mentioned by Zj and IKtt; (TA;) It (a day, S, A, Msb, K, and food, Msb) was, or became, hot; (A, Msb, K;) or very hot.

Pers\. حَرِرْتَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. حَرَّةٌ, He (a man, S) thirsted; was, or became, thirsty. (S, K.) Lh mentions حَرِرْتَ يَا رَجُلُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. حِرَّةٌ [perhaps a mistake for حَرَّةٌ] and حَرَارَةٌ: [app. in the same sense:] ISd says, I think he means [from] الحَرُّ, not الحُرِّيَّةُ. (TA.) And حَرَرٌ [an inf. n. of the same verb] signifies The liver's becoming dry from thirst or grief. (TA.) A2: حَرَّ, sec. Pers\. حَرِرْتَ, aor. ـَ (S, A, * Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. حَرَارٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) He (a slave, S) became free: (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K:) and ↓ تحرّر in the same sense is agreeable with analogy. (Mgh.) b2: And حَرَّ, sec. Pers\. and aor. as above, inf. n. حُرِّيَّةٌ, He (a man) was freeborn, or of free origin. (S.) A3: حَرَّ, [sec. Pers\.

حَرَرْتَ,] aor. ـُ inf. n. حَرٌّ, He heated water (A, * K) &c. (A.) A4: حَرَّ, aor. ـِ He cooked [what is termed] حَرِيرَة: (K:) and حَرَّتْ she made حريرة. (A.) Hence, in a trad., ذُرِّى وَأَنَا أَحِرُّ لَكِ Sprinkle thou the flour, and I will make of it حريرة for thee. (TA.) 2 حرّر, inf. n. تَحْرِيرٌ, He freed, liberated, or emancipated, a slave. (A, Mgh, Msb.) and حرّر رَقَبَةً He freed a neck [i. e. a slave]. (S, K.) b2: Also He set apart a child for the worship of God and the service of the mosque or oratory: (S, TA:) or he devoted him to the service of the church as long as he should live, so that he could not relinquish it while he retained his religion. (TA.) b3: Also, inf. n. as above, (tropical:) He made a writing &c. accurate, or exact; (S, K;) he made a writing beautiful, or elegant, and free from defects, by forming its characters rightly, and rectifying its faults: (A:) he wrote a writing well, or elegantly, and accurately, or exactly; (TK;) he wrote well, or elegantly: (KL:) and he made an account, or a reckoning, accurate, without mistake, and without omission, and without erasure.

A2: Also He (God) made a man's liver to become dry by reason of thirst or grief. (TA.) And He made a man's bosom thirsty; as in the saying, used by the Arabs in cursing a man, مَا لَهُ أَحَرَّ اللّٰهُ صَدْرَهُ [What aileth him? May God make his bosom thirsty]: or the meaning is هَامَتَهُ [app. here used as signifying the bird called هَامَة, in the form of which the soul was believed to issue from a slain man, and to call incessantly for drink until the slaughter of the slayer]. (TA.) 5 تَحَرَّّ see 1.10 استحرّ (S, K) and ↓ حَرَّ (S, TA) (tropical:) It (slaughter) was, or became, vehement, (S, K,) and great in extent; (TA;) and the same is said of death. (TA.) A2: استحرّها He asked, or desired, of her [that she should make what is termed] حَرِيرَة. (A.) [See 1, last signification.]

حِرٌ: see حِرٌّ, below; and see also art. حرح.

حِرِىٌّ: see art. حرح.

حَرٌّ Heat; contr. of بَرْدٌ; (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ حَرَارَةٌ, (S, * Msb, * K,) contr. of بُرُودَةٌ; (S;) and ↓ حُرُورٌ (S, * Msb, * K) and ↓ حِرَّةٌ: (TA:) [see 1, first sentence:] pl. [of the first]

حُرُورٌ and ↓ أَحَارِرُ; (K;) the latter anomalous, both as to its measure and in the non-incorporation of the first ر into the second: it is mentioned on the authority of Az and others; but IDrd doubts its correctness; and the author of the Wá'ee mentions أَحَارُّ as a pl. form, but apparently to avoid contrariety to rule: the pl. of ↓ حَرَارَةٌ as a simple subst., or as an inf. n., but more probably as the former, is حَرَارَاتٌ. (TA.) b2: (assumed tropical:) A burning of the heart, from pain and wrath and distress or affliction or trouble or fatigue. (TA.) [See also حَرَارَةٌ.] b3: (assumed tropical:) Difficulty, or severity, of work. (TA.) A2: See also حَارٌّ: A3: and حَرَّةٌ: A4: and سَاقُ حُرٍّ, voce حُرٌّ.

(Msb.) Omar said to the women who used to go forth to the mosque, لَأَرُدَّنَّكْنَّ حَرَائِرَ [lit. I will assuredly make you to become free women]; meaning I will assuredly make you to keep to the houses: for the curtain is lowered before free women; not before slavewomen. (TA.) [See also حُرِّيَّةٌ.] b2: (tropical:) Generous, noble, or well-born; like as عَبْدٌ is used to signify “ ignoble,” or “ base-born: ” (Mgh:) and so the fem. حُرَّةٌ; (S, Mgh, K;) applied to a woman; (TA;) and to a she-camel: (S:) and so the masc. applied to a horse. (K, TA.) [Hence,] بَاتَتْ بِلَيْلَةِ حُرَّةٍ (tropical:) [She passed a virgin's night] is said of her whose husband has not been able to devirginate her (S, A, K) in the night when she has been first brought to him: (TA:) because the حُرَّة is modest and repugnant: (Har p. 418:) in the contr. case one says, بِلَيْلَةِ شَيْبَآءَ: (S, L:) and one says also بِلَيْلَةٍ حُرَّةٍ; and بِلَيْلَةٍ شَيْبَآءَ. (TA.) [And hence,] لَيْلَةُ حُرَّة and لَيْلَةٌ حُرَّةٌ signify also (assumed tropical:) The first night of the [lunar] month: (K:) its last night is called لَيْلَةُ شَيْبَآءَ and لَيْلَةٌ شَيْبَآءُ. (TA.) You say also وَجْهٌ حُرٌّ (tropical:) [app. meaning An ingenuous countenance]. (A.) b3: (tropical:) Generous, or ingenuous, in conduct: as in the saying of Imra-el-Keys, لَعَمْرُكَ مَا قَلْبِى إِلَى أَهْلِهِ بِحْرْ [By thy life, my heart is not generous in conduct to its, or his, companion]; meaning that it is averse therefrom, and inclines to another.

(Mgh.) b7: (tropical:) The middle, (S, A, K,) and best part, (TA,) of sand, (S, K, TA,) and of a house. (S, A, TA.) b8: (assumed tropical:) The best of anything; (K, TA;) as, for instance, of fruit. (TA.) b9: Also sing. of أَحْرَار in the term أَحْرَارُ البُقُولِ, (TA,) which means (tropical:) Herbs, or leguminous plants, that are eaten without being cooked; (S, A;) as also البُقُولِ ↓ حُرِّيَّةُ: (A:) or such as are slender and succulent; and ذُكُورُ البُقُولِ means “ such as are thick and rough: ” (AHeyth:) or the former are such as are slender and soft; and the latter, “such as are hard and thick: ” (TA in art. عشب:) or the former are such as are slender and sweet; and the latter, “ such as are thick, and inclining to bitterness: ” (TA in art. ذكر:) or the former are such as are rough; and these are three, namely, النَّفَلُ and الحُرْبُثُ and القَفْعَآءُ: or الحُرُّ is applied to a plant of the kind called النَّجِيل, growing in salt grounds. (TA.) b10: حُرُّ الوَجْهِ (tropical:) What appears of the face: (K, TA:) or what appears of the elevated part of the cheek; (S;) [i. e.] the ball, or most prominent place, of the cheek; (W p. 28;) and ↓ الحُرَّةُ signifies [the same, or] the elevated part of the cheek: (TA:) or the former is what fronts one, of the face: or the four tracks of the tears, from each corner of each eye. (TA.) One says, لَطَمَهُ عَلَى حُرِّ وَجْهِهِ (tropical:) [He slapped him on the ball of his cheek]. (S, TA. *) A2: The young one of a gazelle.

سَاقَ حُرَّ [she calls ساق حرّ]: on which IJ observes, As says, ساق حرّ is thought to mean the young one of the bird; but it is her cry: and he (IJ) adds, the fact that the poet [Sakhr] does not make it decl. is an evidence of the correctness of the assertion of As; for, were it decl., he would have said سَاقَ حُرٍّ if it consisted of two nouns whereof the former was prefixed to the other so as to govern it in the gen. case, or ساق حُرًّا if it were a compound; as it is indeterminate: and its being made decl. by Homeyd does not show it to be not significant of a sound; for sometimes an expression significant of a sound consists of two nouns whereof the former is prefixed to the latter so as to govern it in the gen. case, like خَازُ بَازٍ. (M, MF, TA.) حِرٌّ (Msb, K) and ↓ حِرٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, and K, in art. حرح) The vulva, or pudendum, of a woman: (Msb, K:) the former a dial. var. of the latter; (K;) originally حِرْحٌ [q. v.].

(M.) You say, ضُرِبَ بَيْنَهُمَا سَدٌّ and سُدٌّ [A barrier, or an obstacle, was set between them two]: and ضُرِبَتْ بَيْنَهُمَا الأَسْدَادُ [Barriers, or obstacles, were set between them two].

I made him a cover, or screen, to me, in order that he might not see me: and by جِذْم he means “ old,” because الجِذْمُ signifies الأَصْلُ, and there is nothing older than the أَصْل; and he uses it as an epithet because it implies the meaning of an epithet. (M.) A2: سَدٌّ also signifies A thing, (S, K,) [i. e.] a [basket such as is called] سَلَّة, (M, TA,) made of twigs, (S, M, K,) and having covers (أَطْبَاق): (S, K: [but this addition in the S and K seems properly to apply to the pl., as will be shown by what follows:]) pl. سِدَادٌ and سُدُودٌ: (M, TA:) or, accord. to Lth, سُدُودٌ signifies [baskets such as are called] سِلَال, [pl. of سَلَّةٌ,] made of twigs, and having covers (أَطْبَاق); one of which is called [not سَدٌّ but] ↓ سَدَّةٌ: and it is said also on other authority that the سَلَّة is called سَدَّةٌ and طَبْلٌ.

(S, K, * TA.) b2: سِدَادٌ مِنْ عَوَزٍ and ↓ سَدَادٌ, (ISk, S, M, Msb, K,) but the former is the more chaste, (S,) and it alone is mentioned by most authors in this saying, because it is from سداد as meaning the “ stopper ” of a bottle; (Msb;) and some say that ↓ سَداد, with fet-h, is a corruption; (Msb, K;) expressly disallowed by As and ISh; (Msb;) a prov.; (Meyd;) meaning (tropical:) A thing by which want is supplied, (S, M, Msb, K,) and by which life is preserved; accord. to ISh, if incomplete; and accord. to As, a thing by which somewhat of the entire wants of one's case is supplied.

(S, Msb, TA.) It is said in a trad., فَإِنْ غُمَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَأَكْمِلُوا العِدَّةَ, (Mgh, * Msb, TA,) i. e. And if it [the new moon] be veiled, &c., to you, then complete ye the reckoning of Shaabán, thirty [days], in order that the entering upon the fast of Ramadán may be with [inferential] knowledge.

(TA.) b6: غَمَّ الشَّىْءَ, aor. ـُ also signifies عَلَاهُ [app. as meaning It rose upon, or above, the thing, as though forming a covering over it]: mentioned on the authority of IAar, who cites [as an ex.] the saying of En-Nemir Ibn-Towlab, [app. describing a رَوْضَة, or meadow,] أُنُفٌ يَغُمُّ الضَّالُ نَبْتَ بِحَارِهَا [Not depastured, the trees called ضال rising upon, or above, the herbage of its fertile tracts, or its tracts near to water].

A3: غَمَّ الشَّخْصُ, of the class of تَعِبَ, [the first Pers\. being غَمِمْتُ,] inf. n. غَمَمٌ, The person's hair of his head flowed down so that his forehead and the back of his neck were narrowed.

(TA.) See also 1, near the end.

A2: مَا أَغَمَّكَ لِى and إِلَىَّ is [an expression of wonder, meaning How great grief, or sadness, dost thou occasion to me!] from الغَمُّ signifying الحُزْنُ. (K, TA.) b2: [Accord. to the TK, أَغَمَّهُ signifies أَحْزَنَهُ; like غَمَّهُ: but this I think a mistake. b3: And Freytag explains أَغَمَّ as occurring in the Deewán of the Hudhalees signifying “ Demersit: ” but in which of its senses he uses this word he does not specify.]6 تغامّ He made a show of غَمّ [or grief, &c.,] without its being in the heart. (Har p. 126.) 7 انغمّ It (a thing, K) was, or became, covered, (S, K, TA,) veiled, or concealed.

(TA.) R.

↓ سَمِعْتَ عَلَى ثُدِيِّهِنَّ غَمَاغِمَا [When the suckling women, after the first light sleep in the beginning of the night, are in such a condition that thou hearest cryings over their breasts]; meaning, as he says, that the milk of these women is little in quantity, so that the sucking child weeps over the breast when sucking it. (TA.) R. Q. 2 تَغَمْغَمَ: see R. Q. 1, in three places: and see its inf. n. voce غَمْغَمَةٌ, below, in two places. b2: Said of one drowning (غَرِيق) beneath the water, it signifies He uttered a cry, or cries: or, as is said in the T, he was pressed upon by the waves above him: a poet uses it of Pharaoh when he was overwhelmed [in the sea].
