حَمَارَّةٌ, (S, K, &c.,) a word of a rare form, of which the only other instances are said to be حَبَالَّةٌ and زَرَافَّةٌ and زَعَارَّةٌ and سَبَارَّةٌ and صَبَارَّةٌ and عَبَالَّةٌ, (TA,) and sometimes ↓ حَمَارَةٌ, without teshdeed, in poetry, (S, K,) and in prose also, as is said by Lh and others, (TA,) (tropical:) The intenseness of heat (Lth, Ks, S, A, K) of summer; (Lth, Ks, S, A;) and so ↓ حَمْرَآءُ; (TA;) which also signifies the same in relation to the noon, or summer-noon; (K;) and ↓ حَمْرَى, (Az, TA in art. بيض,) and ↓ حِمِرٌّ: (TA:) or the most intense heat of summer; (TA;;) as also ↓ حِمِرٌّ: (K, TA:) and sometimes, though rarely, used in relation to winter [as signifying the intenseness of cold; like صَبَارَّةٌ]: (TA:) pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] ↓ حَمَارٌّ. (S.) A2: See also حِمَارَةٌ, last sentence.

حُمَّرٌ and ↓ حُمَرٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the former of which is the more common, (S, Msb,) [coll. gen. ns.,] A kind of bird, (S, Msb, K,) like the sparrow: (S, Msb:) accord. to Es-Sakháwee, the lark; syn. قُبَّرٌ [q. v.]: and حُمَّرَةٌ is said in the Mujarrad to be an appellation applied by the people of El-Medeeneh to the [bird commonly called] بُلْبُل; as also نُغَرَةٌ: (Msb:) حُمَّرَةٌ and حُمَرَةٌ are the ns. of un.: (S, Msb, K:) pl. حُمَّرَاتٌ (S, TA) [and حُمَرَاتٌ].

A2: See also حُمَرٌ.

حَمَّارٌ: see حَمَّارَةٌ. b2: Also A seller of asses. (TA.) حَمَّارَةٌ, [a coll. gen. n.,] Owners, or attendants, of asses (S, K, TA) in a journey; (S, TA;) as also ↓ حَامِرَةٌ: (K:) n. un. ↓ حَمَّارٌ (S, TA) and ↓ حَامِرٌ. (TA.) A2: See also مِحْمَرٌ, in two places.

حَامِرٌ: see حَمَّارَةٌ.

حَوْمَرٌ: see حُمَرٌ.

حَامِرَةٌ: see حَمَّارَةٌ.

أَحْمَرُ [Red: and also brown, or the like:] a thing of the colour termed حُمْرَةٌ: (Msb, K:) it is in animals, and in garments &c.; and, accord. to IAar, in water [when muddy]: and so ↓ يَحْمُورٌ: (K:) fem. of the former حَمْرَآءُ: (Msb:) pl. حُمْرٌ and حُمْرَانٌ: (K:) or when it means dyed with the colour termed حُمْرَةٌ, the pl. is حُمْرٌ (S, Msb) and حُمْرَانٌ; for you say ثِيَابٌ حُمْرٌ and حُمْرَانٌ [red garments]: (TA:) but if you apply it as an epithet to a man, [in which case it has other meanings than those explained above, as will be shown in what follows,] the pl. is أَحَامِرُ (S) and حُمْرٌ: (TA:) or if it means a thing having the colour termed حُمْرَةٌ, the pl. is أَحَامِرُ, because, in this case, it is a subst., not an epithet. (Msb.) ↓ أَحْمَرِىٌّ also signifies the same as أَحْمَرُ: (Ham p. 379:) or, as some say, it has an intensive sense. (TA voce كَرُوبِيُّونَ.) It is said in the S, in art. دك, that حَمْرَاوَاتٌ is a pl. of حَمْرَآءُ, like as دَكَّاوَاتٌ, is of دَكَّآءُ; but it is not so. (IB in that art.) b2: Applied to a camel, Of a colour like that of saffron when a garment is dyed with it so that it stands up by reason of [the thickness of] the dye: (TA:) or of an unmixed red colour; (As, S in art. كمت, and TA;) and so the fem. when applied to a she-goat. (TA.) It is said that, of she-camels, the حَمْرَآء is the most able to endure the summer midday-heat; and the وَرْقَآء, to endure nightjourneying; and that the صَهْبَآء is the most notable and the most beautiful to look at: so said Aboo-Nasr En-Na'ámee: and the Arabs say that the best of camels are the حُمْر and the صُهْب. (TA.) [Hence,] حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ signifies (assumed tropical:) The high-bred, or excellent, of camels: and is proverbially applied to anything highly prized, precious, valuable, or excellent. (Mgh, Msb.) b3: Applied to a man, (AA, Sh, Az,) White (AA, Sh, Az, K) in complexion; (Az;) because أَبْيَضُ might be considered as of evil omen [implying the meaning of leprosy]: (AA, Sh:) or, accord. to Th, because the latter epithet, applied to a man, was only used by the Arabs as signifying “ pure,” or “ free from faults: ” but they sometimes used this latter epithet in the sense of “ white in complexion,”

applied to a man &c.: (IAth:) fem., in the same sense, حَمْرَآءُ: the dim. of which, ↓ حُمَيْرَآءُ, occurs in a trad., applied to 'Áïsheh. (K, * TA.) So, accord. to some, in the trad., بُعِثْتُ إِلَى الأَحْمَرِ وَالأَسْوَدِ, (TA,) i. e. I have been sent to the white and the black; because these two epithets comprise all mankind: (Az, TA:) [therefore, by the former we should understand the white and the red races; and by the latter, the negroes: but some hold that by the former are meant the foreigners, and] by the latter are meant the Arabs. (TA.) One says also, [when speaking of Arabs and more northern races,] أَتَانِى كُلُّ أَسْوَدَ مِنْهُمْ وَأَحْمَرَ, meaning Every Arab of them, and foreigner, came to me: and one should not say, in this sense, أَبْيَضَ. (AA, As, S.) الحَمْرَآءُ, also, is applied to The foreigners (العَجَمُ) [collectively]; (S, A, K;) because a reddish white is the prevailing hue of their complexion: (S:) or the Persians and Greeks: or those foreigners mostly characterized by whiteness of complexion; as the Greeks and Persians. (TA.) You say, لَيْسَ فِى

الحَمْرَآءِ مِثْلُهُ There is not among the foreigners (العَجَم) the like of him. (A.) And accord. to some, الأَحْمَرُ وَالأَبْيَضُ means The Arabs and the foreigners. (TA.) الحَمْرَآءُ [so in the TA, but correctly أَبْنَآءُ الحَمْرَآءِ,] is an appellation applied to Emancipated slaves: and اِبْنُ حَمْرَآءِ العِجَانِ, meaning Son of the female slave, is an appellation used in reviling and blaming. (TA.) b4: Also (tropical:) A man having no weapons with him: pl. حُمْرٌ (A, K) and حُمْرَانٌ. (K.) b5: الحُسْنُ أَحْمَرُ meansBeauty is in الحُمْرَة [app. fairness of complexion; i. e. beauty is fair-complexioned]: (TA:) or (assumed tropical:) beauty is attended by difficulty; i. e. he who loves beauty must bear difficulty, or distress: (IAth:) or the lover experiences from beauty what is experienced from war. (ISd, K.) b6: الأَحْمَرُ A sort of dates: (K:) so called because of their colour. (TA.) b7: الأَحْمَرُ وَالأَبْيَضُ Gold and silver. (TA.) And الأَحْمَرَانِ Flesh-meat and wine; (S, A, K;) said to destroy men: (S:) so in the saying, نَحْنُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَسْوَدَيْنِ لَا الأَحْمَرَيْنِ We are of the people of dates and water, not of flesh-meat and wine: (A:) or the beverage called نَبِيذ and flesh-meat. (IAar.) Also Wine and [garments of the kind called] بُرُود. (Sh.) and Gold and saffron; (Az, ISd, K;) said to destroy women; i. e. the love of ornaments and perfumes destroys them: (Az:) or these are called الأَصْفَرَانِ; (AO, TA;) and milk and water, الأَبْيَضَانِ; (TA;) and dates and water, الأَسْوَدَانِ. (A, TA.) And الأَحَامِرَةُ Flesh-meat and wine and [the perfume called] الخَلُوق: (S, K:) or gold and flesh-meat and wine; as also الأَخَاضِرُ: (TA in art. خضر:) or gold and saffron and الخَلُوق. (ISd, TA.) b8: المَوْتُ الأَحْمَرُ (assumed tropical:) Slaughter; (L, K;) because it occasions the flowing of blood: (TA:) and [so in the L, but in the K “ or ”] (tropical:) violent death: (S, A, L, K:) or death in which the sight of the man becomes dim by reason of terror, so that the world appears red and black before his eyes: (A 'Obeyd:) or it may mean (assumed tropical:) recent, fresh, death; from the phrase next following. (As.) b9: وَطْأَةٌ حَمْرَآءُ (tropical:) A new, or recent, footstep, or footprint: opposed to دَهْمَآءُ. (As, S, A.) b10: سَنَةٌ حَمْرَآءُ (tropical:) A severe year; (S, K;) because it is a mean between the سَوْدَآء and the بَيْضآء: or a year of severe drought; because, in such a year, the tracts of the horizon are red: (TA:) when الجَبْهَةُ [the tenth Mansion of the Moon (see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ in art. نزل)] breaks its promise [of bringing rain], the year is such as is thus called. (AHn.) b11: See also حَمْرَآءُ voce حَمَارَّةٌ. b12: جَآءَ بِغَنَمِهِ حُمْرَ الكُلَى, and, in like manner, سُودَ البُطُونِ, (tropical:) He brought his sheep or goats, in a lean, or an emaciated, state. (A, * TA.) أَحْمَرِىٌّ: see أَحْمَرُ.

تَحْمِيرٌ [an inf. n. (of حَمَّرَ) used as a subst.] A bad kind of tanning. (K.

[denoting the abstract signification of the inf. n., اِحْتِيَاطٌ,] is حيطة, (Msb,) i. e. ↓ حَيْطَةٌ and ↓ حِيطَةٌ, (K, TA,) which latter is originally حِوْطَةٌ, (TA,) [and is also an inf. n. of 1,] and ↓ حَوْطَةٌ. (K, TA.) Some hold احتياط to belong to art. حيط. (Msb.) You say also فِى الأُمُورِ ↓ استحاط [meaning in like manner (assumed tropical:) He took the course prescribed by prudence, &c., in affairs, or in the affairs: as is shown below: see مُحْتَاطٌ]. (TA.) 10 إِسْتَحْوَطَ see 8.

(TA.) [See also تَحْوِيطَةٌ.]

حَوْطَةٌ: see 8.

حَيْطَةٌ: see 8.

حِيطَةٌ: see 8.

حُوَاطٌ: see what next follows.

حُوَاطَةٌ An enclosure (حَظِيرَة) made for wheat: (S, K:) or it signifies a thing which one soon quits, or relinquishes, or from which one soon abstains; and so ↓ حُوَاطٌ, as occurring [accord. to one relation] in a verse cited voce عُرْسٌ. (L.) حَيِّطٌ, [originally either حَوِيطٌ or حَيْوِطٌ,] like سَيِّدٌ, A man who guards, protects, or defends, (يَحُوطُ,) his family and his brethren. (TA.) حَوَّاطٌ A monopolizer: so in the present day.]

حَوَّاطُ أَمْرٍ (tropical:) The undertakers, superintendents, or managers, of an affair. (K, TA.) [See a verse cited voce عُرْسٌ.]

حَائِطٌ A wall. (Msb, * K, TA:) or a wall of enclosure: (Msb, * TA:) or one that surrounds a garden: (Mgh:) [often applied to a fence of wood, or sticks, or of reeds, or canes:] so called because it surrounds what is within it; (TA;) but it is a subst., like سَقْفٌ and رُكْنٌ, though implying the meaning of surrounding: (IJ, TA:) or it is an act. part. n., from حَاطَ: (Msb:) pl. حِيطَانٌ, (S, Msb, K,) in which the و is changed into ى because of the kesreh before it, (S,) but by rule it should be حُوطَانٌ; (Sb, K;) and حِيَاطٌ.

(Msb.) And هٰذَا أَحْوَطُ (assumed tropical:) This is more, or most, conducive to put [one] in a position of اِحْتِيَاط [or taking the course prescribed by prudence, precaution, or good judgment; &c.: see 8]. (Mgh.) The word أَحْوَطُ is from the phrase حَاطَ الحِمَارُ عَانَتَهُ; not from الاِحْتِيَاطُ; because the افعل of excess is not formed from a verb of five letters: (Msb:) or it is anomalous, like أَخْصَرُ from الاِخْتِصَارُ.

(TA.) فُلَانٌ مُحَاطٌ بِهِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is slain; is destroyed. (TA.) مُحِيطٌ [act. part. n. of 4; Surrounding, encompassing, or enclosing: &c.] b2: It is said in the Kur [lxxxv. 20], وَاللّٰهُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ مُحيِطٌ (assumed tropical:) and God, behind them, includeth them altogether within his power; not one shall escape Him.

(S.) هُوَ مُحْتَاطٌ فِى أَمْرِهِ and فِيهِ ↓ مُسْتَحِيطٌ [He is taking the course prescribed by prudence, precaution, or good judgment; or using precaution; or taking the sure course; or seeking the most successful means, and taking the surest method; in his affair: see 8]. (TA.) مُسْتَحِيطٌ: see what next precedes.

(Msb.) b2: A letter of the alphabet: pl. حُرُوفٌ: (S, Msb, K:) the letters being thus called because they are the extremities of the word [and of the syllable]. (Kull.)

(Mgh.) A2: Applied to a she-camel, (assumed tropical:) Lean, or light of flesh; or lean, and lank in the belly; (S, K;) and firm, strong, or hardy; likened to the حَرْف of a mountain; (S;) or to the حرف of a sword, (Z, O, TA,) in respect of her leanness, or thinness, and her sharpness and effectiveness in pace; (Z, TA;) or to a letter of the alphabet, meaning the letter ا, in respect of her leanness: (TA:) or excellent, or high-bred, or strong and light and swift, sharp and effective in pace, rendered lean by journeyings; likened to the حرف of a sword: (L:) or emaciated: (S, K:) so As used to say: (S:) but this is inconsistent with Dhu-r-Rummeh's description of a she-camel by the epithets جُمَالِيَّةٌ حَرْفٌ سِنَادٌ: (TA:) [see حَرِيثَةٌ:] or [in the CK “ and ”] great; big; of great size; (K, TA;) likened to the حرف of a mountain: (TA:) it is applied only to a she-camel: one may not say جَمَلٌ حَرْفٌ.

(Mgh.) Hence the saying of 'Omar, أَحَدِهِمْ أَشَدُّ عَلَىَّ مِنْ عَيْلَتِهِ ↓ لِحِرْفَةُ, (S, K,) or, accord. to one reading, ↓ لَحُرْفَةُ, (TA,) [Verily the ill-fatedness of any one of them is more distressing to me than his poverty:] i. e., the supplying the wants of the poor man is easier to me than the making the bad to thrive: or the meaning is, the want of the means of gaining subsistence by any one of them, and grief on that account, is more distressing to me than his poverty: so in the Nh. (TA.) A2: الحُرْفُ A certain grain, resembling الخَرْدَل [or mustard]; (Az, Msb, TA;) called by the vulgar, (AHn, TA,) or in the dial. of El-'Irák, (TA in art. رشد,) حَبُّ الرَّشَادِ, (AHn, S, K,) or الرَّشَادُ: (Msb:) n. un. with ة, (TA,) applied to a single grain thereof.

حَرِيفٌ A fellow-worker, syn. مُعَامِلٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) in one's craft or ordinary occupation: (K:) and an associate: (KL:) pl. حُرَفَآءُ. (Msb.) b2: It is mostly used by foreigners as meaning A companion in drinking: and by most of the Turks, as implying vituperation; [like our term “ fel-low; ”] so that when any one of them addresses another by this epithet, he is angry. (TA.) حَرَافَةٌ The quality, or property, of burning, or biting, the tongue; acritude. (S, Msb, TA.) حِرِّيفٌ, from الحُرْفُ, Burning, or biting, to the tongue: (S, Msb, TA:) it is applied in this sense to an onion, and to other things: one should not say حَرِّيفٌ. (S, TA.) مَحْرِفٌ A place to which to turn away, or back, from a thing. (AO, S, K.) So in the saying, مَالِى عَنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ مَحْرِفٌ [I have no place to which to turn away, or back, from this thing].

(M, TA.) [Hence,] إِنَّ رَأْسَهُ لَجَيِّدُ الحِلَاقِ [Verily his head is well shaven]. (S, K. *) And يَوْمُ تَحْلَاق اللَّمَمِ [The day of the shaving off of the locks termed لمم]; which was a day fought by Teghlib (S, K) against Bekr Ibn-Wáïl; (S;) because their [i. e. Teghlib's] distinctive sign was shaving (الحَلْق), (S, K,) on that day. (S.) b2: عَقْرًا حَلْقًا, or ↓ عَقْرَى حَلْقَى, (S, K, *) is an expression occurring in a trad.: (S:) the latter is rare; or is an incorrect variation of the relaters of traditions: (K:) A 'Obeyd says, it is عَقْرًا حَلْقًا, for which the relaters of traditions say ↓ عَقْرَى حَلْقَى; and the original form and meaning is عَقَرَهَا اللّٰهُ وَحَلَقَهَا, (S,) or عَقَرَهَا اللّٰهُ عَقْرًا وَحَلَقَهَا حَلْقًا, (TA,) i. e., [accord. to A 'Obeyd,] May God wound her body, and afflict her with pain in her حَلْق [or fauces]: (S, K: *) but this explanation is not valid: accord. to the T, it is a form of imprecation uttered against a woman, [not in earnest, though denoting a degree of displeasure,] meaning may she be bereft of her husband, or became a widow, so that she shall shave off her hair: and Az says that عَقْرَى ↓ حَلْقَى means she is unlucky [to others] and annoying: ISd says, it is said to mean she is unlucky [to others]; but I am not sure of it. (TA.) Accord. to Aboo-Nasr (S, TA) Ahmad Ibn-Hátim, (S,) one says on the occasion of an event at which one wonders, خَمْشَى

↓ عَقْرَى حَلْقَى, as though [meaning May she who has occasioned this, scratch and wound her face, and shave off her hair:] from الحَلْقُ [the act of shaving] and العَقْرُ [the act of wounding] and الخَمْشُ syn. with الخَدْشُ [the act of scratching]: (S, TA: *) and he cites this verse: ↓ أَلَا قَوْمِى أُولُو عَقْرَى وَحَلْقَى

لِمَا لَا قَتْ سَلَامَانُ بْنُ غَنْمِ (TA, and so in some copies of the S,) meaning [Now surely] my people have women who have wounded and scratched their faces and shaven off their hair [on account of what the tribe of Selámán Ibn-Ghanm has experienced]: so, says IB, IKtt relates this verse, and so Hr in the Ghareebeyn: but ISk, thus: أَلَا قَوْمِى إِلَى عَقْرَى وَحَلْقَى

[and so I find it in one copy of the S:] and IJ explains it by saying that عقرى وحلقى originally denotes the case of a woman who, when some one honourable in her estimation has been smitten, or wounded, takes a pair of sandals, and beats with them her head, and wounds or scratches it, and shaves off her hair; and the poet means, my people have come to the condition of wounded, or scratched, and shaven, women. (TA.) [Fei says,] حَلْقًا لَهُ وَعَقْرًا is a form of imprecation, meaning May God afflict him with pain in his حَلْق [or fauces], and wound his body: but the relaters of traditions say عَقْرَى ↓ حَلْقَى, with the fem. alif, making them act. part. ns.; [the former meaning, accord. to one of the explanations given above, an unlucky woman to others, though this is doubtful; and] the latter meaning a woman annoying her people: (Msb:) or both these words are inf. ns., like دَعْوَى. (TA in art. عقر.

[See more in that art]) b3: They said also, بَيْنَهُمُ احْلِقِى وَقُومِى [Among them is heard the saying, Shave, O woman, and arise]; i. e. among them is trial, or trouble, and distress, affliction, calamity, or adversity: and يُوْمُ احْلِقِى وَقُومِى [A day of the saying Shave, &c.; i. e., of trial, &c.].

(S.) b2: And (tropical:) He filled it, namely, a watering-trough or tank, (K, TA,) up to its حَلْق [q. v.]; (TA;) as also ↓ احلقهُ. (Sgh, K.) A3: حَلَقَ الشَّىْءَ i. q. قَدَّرَهُ [He made the thing according to a measure; &c.]; (K;) like خَلَقَهُ [q. v.], with the pointed خ. (TA.) A4: حَلَقَ الضَّرْعُ, aor. ـَ [so in the TA, app. a mistranscription for حَلُقَ, since neither the medial nor final radical letter is faucial,] inf. n. حُلُوقٌ, (assumed tropical:) The udder rose to the belly, and became contracted: b2: and also (assumed tropical:) The udder contained much milk: (Kr, ISd, TA:) thus it has two contr. meanings.

(TA.) 2 حمّقهُ, inf. n. تَحْمِيقٌ, He ascribed to him حُمْق [i. e. foolishness, or stupidity, &c.]. (S, K.) b2: حَمَّقَتْهُ الهَجْعَةُ The light sleep in the first part of the night rendered him like the أَحْمَق [i. e. foolish, or stupid, &c.]: so says IKh; and he cites, from a poet, the phrase حَمَّقَتْهُ بِهَجْعَةٍ; in which the ب is redundant, and the noun occupies the place of one in the nom. case. (TA.) b3: [and hence, if correct,] حُمِّقَ He drank wine: (K:) or he became intoxicated, so that his reason departed: thus explained by IAmb; but disallowed by EzZejjájee. (IB, TA.) 3 حامقهُ He aided him in his حُمْق [i. e. foolishness, or stupidity, &c.]. (S.) 4 احمقهُ He found him to be أَحْمَق [i. e. fool ish, or stupid, &c.]. (S, K.)

(TA.) [Hence,] نَوْمَةُ الحُمْقِ The sleep after [the period of the afternoon called] the عَصْر; when no one sleeps except one who is intoxicated, or one who is insane, or unsound in mind. (Har p. 223. [See also خُرْقٌ and خُلُقٌ.]) b2: And Deceit; or a deception. (TA.) b3: [It is said that] الحُمْقُ also signifies Wine: (Z, K:) as being a cause of حُمْق; like as wine is called إِثْمٌ as being a cause of إِثْم: (Z, TA:) but Ez-Zejjájee disallows this: and [it is also said that] ↓ الحُمَيْقَآءُ signifies the same, because wine occasions حُمْق to its drinker. (TA.) حَمِقٌ: see أَحْمَقُ. b2: Also (assumed tropical:) Having a scanty beard. (IDrd, K.) حُمُقٌ: see حُمْقٌ.

حَمْقَان: see أَحْمَقُ.

(TA.) حُمَيْقٌ a contracted dim. of أَحْمَقُ; or dim. of حَمِقٌ: [the dim. form being app. used in this case to denote enhancement of the signification: (see also حُمَّيْقَةٌ:)] so in the prov., (TA,) عَرَفَ حُمَيْقٌ جَمَلَهُ [A very foolish, or stupid, man knew his camel]; i. e. he knew thus much, although أَحْمَق: or, as some relate it, عَرَفَ حُمَيْقًا جَمَلُهْ, i. e. his camel knew him, [namely, a very foolish, or stupid, man,] and emboldened himself against him; or it means that he knew his quality: (K, TA:) it is applied to the case of excessive familiarity with men: (TA:) or to him who deems a man weak, and is therefore fond of annoying, or molesting, him, (K, TA,) and ceases not to act wrongfully towards him: or, as some say, [حميق is here a proper name; and] this person had a camel with which he was familiar, and he made and attack upon him. (TA.) [See Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 85.]

حَمَاقَةٌ: see حُمْقٌ.

حُمُوقَةٌ: see أُحْمُوقَةٌ.

حُمَيْقَى: see حُمَاقٌ.

حُمَيْقَآءُ: see حُمْقٌ: A2: and حُمَاقٌ.

حُمَيِّقَةٌ: see what next follows.

حَمُّوقَةٌ: see what next follows.

حُمَّيْقَةٌ, (K,) but in the Tekmileh with teshdeed to the ى and with kesr to the same, [app. ↓ حُمَّيْقَةٌ,] (TA,) and ↓ حَمُّوقَةٌ, (K,) Foolish, or stupid, (أَحْمَق,) in the utmost degree. (Ibn-'Abbád, K, TA.) [It seems to be implied in the K that أُحْمُوقَةٌ signifies the same: but see this word below.]

(Ibn-'Abbád, K.) Accord. to some, أَحْمَقُ is from the phrase اِنْحَمَقَتِ السُّوقُ: and accord. to some, from the phrase لَيَالٍ مُحْمِقَاتٌ, because the احمق deceives one at first by what he says. (TA.) The sounds of wailing for the dead, and trilling, or quavering, in playing, are termed أَحْمَقَانِ because of the حُمْق of the person from whom they proceed. (Mgh.) b2: البَقْلَةُ الحَمْقَآءُ (S, K) and بَقْلَةُ الحَمْقَآءِ, (K,) the latter for بَقْلَةُ الحَبَّةِ الحَمْقَآءِ, i. q. الرِّجْلَةُ [Garden purslane]; (S, ISd, K;) which is the name applied to it by the vulgar; (ISd, TA;) the chief of herbs, or leguminous plants: called by those names because exuding mucilage (مُلَعِّبَةٌ), so that it is likened to the أَحْمَق whose slaver is flowing: IDrd says, they assert that it is so called because it grows in the tracks of men, so that it is trodden upon; and in water-courses, so that the water uproots it: IF says that it is so called because of its weakness: and it is said that some persons, hating 'Áïsheh, called it بَقْلَةُ عَائِشَةَ; but this is one of their fanciful assertions; for such was its name in the time of utter paganism: so says Sgh. (TA.) b3: [أَحْمَقُ also signifies More, and most, foolish, or stupid, &c. Hence,] it is said in a prov., أَحْمَقُ مِنْ رِجْلَةٍ

[More foolish, or stupid, than a plant of gardenpurslane: explained by what precedes]. (TA.) [See also another prov. voce ثَمَانُونَ.] And in a trad., أَحْمَقُ الحُمْقِ الفُجُورُ [The most foolish of foolishness, or the most stupid of stupidness, is vice, or immorality, or unrighteousness]. (A in art. كيس.) أَحْمُوقَةٌ is from الحُمْقُ, like أُحْدُوثَةٌ from الحَدِيثُ, and أُعْجُوبَةٌ from العَجَبُ: (TA:) it signifies An action, or a deed, of those that are done by the حَمْقَى [i. e. foolish, or stupid, persons]; (Mgh;) [a foolish, or stupid, action or deed:] it is like ↓ حُمُوقَةٌ, which means an action, a practice, or a habit, in which is حُمْق [i. e. foolishness, or stupidity, &c.]. (TA.) One says, وَقَعَ فُلَانٌ فِى أُحْمُوقَةٍ [Such a one fell into the commission of a foolish, or stupid, action, &c.]. (TA.) [See حُمَّيْقَةٌ.]

مُحْمِقٌ and مُحْمِقَةٌ (S, K) A woman who brings forth a child that is أَحْمَق [i. e. foolish, &c.]; (S;) or who brings forth حَمْقَى [i. e. foolish children]: (K:) or, accord. to IDrd, the latter has this signification; but the former signifies a man who begets حَمْقَى; and he does not allow its application to a woman. (TA.) b2: المُحْمِقَاتُ (tropical:) The nights [that make a fool of one; i. e.] during the whole of which the moon is above the horizon but intercepted by clouds; so that one imagines that he has arrived at the time of morning; (A, O, K, TA;) because he sees light, but sees not the moon: derived from الحُمْقُ. (TA.) One says, غَرَّنِى غُرُورَ المُحْمِقَاتِ (tropical:) [He, or it, deceived me with the deceiving of the nights thus called]. (TA.) And you say, سِرْنَا فِى لَيَالِ مُحْمِقَاتٍ (tropical:) [We journeyed during such nights]; because the rider therein thinks that he has arrived at the time of morning until he becomes weary. (TA.) مِحْمَاقٌ A woman who is accustomed to bring forth حَمْقَى [i. e. foolish children]. (S, K.) مَحْمُوقٌ A man [or child] affected with حُمَاق [q. v.]. (A 'Obeyd, S.)

جِرَّتِهِ: and ما يحنق على جِرَّةٍ: [thus written in the TA; though it seems to be implied by the manner in which the two sayings are there introduced, in this art., that the verb in each case is ↓ يُحْنِقُ, from أَحْنَقَ in the first of the senses assigned to it below:] see جِرَّةٌ.2 حَنَّقَ see 4.4 احنق (tropical:) He bore rancour, malevolence, malice, or spite, [cleaving to him, so as] not be relaxed; or he hid, in his heart, enmity, and violent hatred, not to be relaxed.

(A, Har p. 173.) b5: And He (a camel) became fat; had much fat: thus it has two contr. meanings.

(Ibn-' Abbád, K.) IAar says that you say of seed-produce [or corn] قَنْبَعَ ثُمَّ أَحْنَقَ ثُمَّ مَدَّ لِلْحَبِّ أَعْنَاقَهُ ثُمَّ حَمَلَ الدَّقِيقَ, i. e. Its ears had, at the head, what resembled little compact balls: then the extremities of its awn, or beard, appeared: then the internodal portions of its culms appeared: then [it bore farina; or] it increased, and [its heads] became like the heads of birds. (TA.) A2: He angered, (S, Msb, K,) or enraged, another. (S, Msb.) b2: He made a beast lean, or light of flesh.
