1 دَفَّ, (M, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـِ (T, M, TA,) or ـُ (Msb, [but this is a deviation from a general rule, and is probably a mistake,]) inf. n. دَفِيفٌ (Lth, T, S, M, Msb) and دَفٌّ; (M, TA;) and ↓ ادفّ; (Ibn-' Abbád, M, Msb, K;) said of a bird, (Lth, T, S, &c.,) It beat its sides (دَفَّيْهِ, i. e., Msb, جَنْبَيْهِ, M, Msb) with its wings: (M, Msb:) this is what is meant by the following explanation: (Msb:) it moved [or flapped] its wings (Msb, K) for its flight, (Msb,) as the pigeon (K) and the like: (TA:) and it went [or flew] along a little above the ground: (S, K:) or it moved [or flapped] its wings, with its feet upon the ground, (Lth, T, M, K,) flying, and then rose; (Lth, T;) and in like manner ↓ دَفْدَفَ and ↓ استدفّ: (K:) [or] دفّ and ↓ ادفّ signify also it (a bird) went along quickly, with its feet upon the ground, and then raised itself flying. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., يُؤْكَلُ مَا دَفَّ وَلَا ُؤْكَلُ مَا صَفَّ, (K, * TA,) i. e. What moves [or flaps] its wings [in flying], as the pigeon (K, TA) and the like, (TA,) may be eaten; but [what skims along without flapping,] such as vultures (K, TA) and hawks and the like, (TA,) may not be eaten. (K, * TA.) [But] دَفَّ, aor. ـِ said of an eagle, signifies It approached, or was near to, the ground in its flying.

Dhu-r-Rummeh uses it metaphorically in relation to الدَّبَرَانِ [the asterism of the Hyades, or α of Taurus], describing الثُّرَيَّا [the Pleiades]; saying, يَدِفُّ عَلَىآثَارِهَا دَبَرَانُهَا فَلَا هُوَ مَسْبُوقٌ وَلَا هُوَ يَلْحَقُ

[Their Debarán goes along gently near after them, so that it is not outstripped, nor does it overtake]. (M.) [And ↓ تَدَافَّ, accord. to ISd, seems to signify nearly the same: for it is immediately added in the M,] in the saying, إِلَيْكَ أَشْكُو مَشْيَهَا تَدَافِيَا مَشْىَ العَجُوزِ تَنْقُلُ الأَثَافِيَا [app. complaining, to God, of the slowness of his she-camel, as though meaning To Thee I complain of her pressing on slowly and laboriously, like the gait of the old woman removing the three stones for the support of the cooking-pot], the poet means تَدَافُفًا. (M. [But I rather think that the meaning here intended is, going along with an inclining from side to side; perhaps from دَفٌّ signifying the “ side. ” See also 6 in art. دفو.]) One says also, الــجَيْشُ يَدِفُّونَ نَحْوَ العَدُوِّ The troops go gently, or leisurely, towards the enemy. (S.) And دَفَّتْ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ بَنِى فُلَانٍ

وكلمة قب العربية بمعنى رأس غربية في اللغة الدارجة ولذلك أفضل أن أرى في كلمة قب هذه الكلمة الأسبانية cabo بمعنى طرف: نهاية حد.
ففي معجم الملاحة لجال (ص838): (إن عددا من العمارات القديمة فيها على رأس صاري المركب سطح صغير في شكل زنبيل مستدير أجوف أو شكل كأس أو طاس، وهذا السطح في أعلى الصاري يجلس عليه المراقبون والمحاربون).

وحين تكون هذه الطلة أو المظلة الكبيرة تعلوها صورة طير من الذهب أو الفضة المموهة بالذهب فهي شعار السلطة في مصر (مملوك 1: 1) غير أنهم لم يكونوا يرفعونها بمصر إلا أيام الأعياد (ابن بطوطة 3: 205. دي ساسي طرائف 2: 268).

ويطلق على دائرة نصف النهار أسماء مختلفة منها دائرة نصف نهار لانكان ودائرة نصف نهار اوجين.
وقد سماها العرب قبة الأرض لأن كلمة قبة تطلق أيضا على الموضع الذي يعتبر مركزا للمواضع الأخرى وتتفوق عليها بعض التوفق.
أو إنها قبة أزين، فالجيم عند أهل الهند ينطق جيما حينا وزايا حينا آخر.
ولما كانت المخطوطات تهمل في الغالب ضبط الكلمة فقد اعتاد عامة القراء على أن ينطقوها أزين، ثم أهملت المخطوطات نقطة الزاي فصارت الكلمة أرين. (انظر رينو، جغرافية أبي الفدا 1: 135).

A2: And القُبَاقِبُ signifies العَامُ المُقْبِلُ [i. e.

↓ وَلَا مُقَبْقِبَ [O my child (lit. my little son), verily thou wilt not prosper this year, nor next year, nor the year after the next, nor the year after that, nor the year after that]; (O, K; *) every one of these words being the name of the year after the year.
