(O.) A2: [It is also trans.; as in the phrase] اصات القَوْسَ He made the bow to sound [or twang]: (M, TA:) [and so is ↓ صوّت; as in the phrase] صوّت العِلْكَ [He caused the kind of resin called عِلْك to make a sound, or sounds].

(O.) b4: Also He went away hiding himself. (K.) صَاتٌ: see صِيتٌ: b2: and see also صَيِّتٌ, in two places.

صَوْتٌ [an inf. n. (see 1): and also a simple subst., signifying] A sound, (M, MA, TA, PS,) a noise, a voice, a cry, a shout, an exclamation, or a vociferation; (MA, PS;) of a human being and of other things: (ISk, TA:) conventionally, the sound of speech: (Msb:) [also a tone, considered with regard to the degree of elevation or depression of the voice:] and any sort of singing: (M, TA:) [and an air, or a song:] and it is used to signify a clamour, or confused noise, or mixture of sounds, (S,) and a cry for aid or succour: (S, M:) the pl. is أَصْوَاتٌ: (M, Msb, TA:) it is masc.: (S, * M, Msb, TA:) in the following verse, (S, M, Msb,) of Ruweyshid Ibn-Ketheer (S, M) Et-Tá-ee, (S,) يَا أَيُّهَا الرَّاكِبُ المُزْجِى مَطِيَّتَهُ سَايِلْ بَنِى أَسَدٍ مَا هٰذِهِ الصَّوْتُ [O thou, the rider urging on his beast, ask the sons of Asad what is this clamour?], (S, M, Msb,) the poet has made الصوت fem. because meaning thereby. الضَّوْضَآء and الجَلَبَة and الاِسْتِغَاثَة, (S,) or he has made it fem. as meaning الصَّيْحَة, (M, Msb,) or الاِسْتِغَاثَة: (M:) the like is often done by the Arabs, when two words, masc. and fem., are syn.: thus they say, أَقْبَلَتِ العِشَآءُ, meaning العَشِيَّةُ; and هٰذَا العَشِيَّةُ, meaning العِشَآءُ: (Msb:) but the making a masc. n. fem. for this reason is bad; though the reverse is held to be allowable. (M.) The Arabs say, أَسْمَعُ صَوْتًا وَأَرَى فَوْتًا, meaning I hear a sound, or voice, but I see not a deed. (TA.) بِصَوْتِكَ in the Kur xvii. 66 is said to mean With the sounds of [thy] singing, and musical pipes. (M, TA.) b2: اِسْمُ صَوْتٍ is a term applied to A noun significant of a sound: nouns of this kind being of two classes; namely, nouns applied to the purpose of addressing irrational beings, or what are virtually in the predicament of irrational beings, as young infants; and onomatopœias, or nouns imitative of sounds: the former class consists of two descriptions of words; namely, ejaculations used for the purpose of chiding, as هَلَا (to horses) and عَدَسْ (to mules) and كِخْ كِخْ (to a young infant); and ejaculations used for the purpose of calling, as جِىْء (to camels) and تُشَأْ (to an ass): of the other class are غَاقِ (imitative of the cry of the crow) and طَقْ (imitative of the sound produced by the falling of stones) and قبْ (imitative of the sound produced by the fall of a sword) &c.: nouns significant of sounds are generally indecl., because they resemble certain particles in neither governing nor being governed; but some of them are occasionally decl. [like other nouns]. (ElAshmoonee's Expos. of the Alfeeyeh of Ibn-Málik, section اسماء الافعال والاصوات.) b3: See also the next paragraph, in four places.

His fame &c., or good fame &c., spread among the people]: (S, TA:) and فِى النَّاسِ ↓ لَهُ صَوْتٌ and صِيتٌ [He has fame &c., or good fame &c., among the people]: and ذَهَبَ صِيتُهُ فِيهِمْ [His fame &c., or good fame &c., went among them]. (A.) It is said in a trad., مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ إِلَّا لَهُ صِيتٌ فِى السَّمَآءِ, meaning [There is no servant of God, i. e. no man, but he has] a report by which he is known [in Heaven]; and it may be in respect of good and evil. (TA.) And in another trad., فَصْلُ مَا بَيْنَ وَالدَّفٌ ↓ الحَلَالِ وَالحَرَامِ الصَّوْتُ [The distinction between the lawful (i. e. marriage) and the unlawful (i. e. fornication) is the report that is made in the case of the former, and the tambourine that is used in that case], meaning the publication of the marriage, and the going of the report thereof among the people. (TA.) A2: صِيتٌ also signifies A blacksmith's hammer. (K, * TA.) b2: And An artificer, or a handicraftsman; syn. صَانِعٌ: (K accord. to the TA:) or a goldsmith; syn. صَائِغٌ. (So in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K.) صِيتَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

(TA. [But see the next paragraph: and see also مِصْوَاتٌ.]) صَيِّتٌ, applied to a man, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) and ↓ صَاتٌ, so applied, (S, M, K,) and the latter likewise applied to an ass, (S,) both signify the same, (K,) Vehement, strong, or loud, of voice: (S, M, Msb:) ↓ رَجُلٌ صَاتٌ is like رَجُلٌ مَالٌ “ a man having much property,” and رَجُلٌ نَالٌ “ a man who gives much,” and كَبْشٌ صَافٌ [“ a ram having much wool ”], &c., all of these epithets being originally of the measure فَعِلٌ: (S:) or صَاتٌ may be of the measure فَاعِلٌ from which the medial radical has gone; or it may be [originally صَوِتٌ,] of the measure فَعِلٌ. (M.) One says also صَوْتٌ صَيِّتٌ [A vehement, strong, or loud, voice]. (A.) See also صَائِتٌ.

صَوَّاتٌ: see مِصْوَاتٌ.

مُصَوِّتٌ: see the next paragraph, in two places.

مِصْوَاتٌ One who raises his voice, calls or calls out, cries or cries out, shouts, clamours, exclaims, or vociferates; i. q. ↓ مُصَوِّتٌ: (K, TA:) [or, as also ↓ صَوَّاتٌ, often occurring, who does so much, or is in the habit of doing so; each being of a measure denoting intensiveness of the signification.] b2: [Hence,] one says, مَا بِالدَّارِ مِصْوَاتٌ, meaning There is not in the house any one (K, TA) that raises his voice, &c.: in some copies of the K ↓ مُصَوِّتٌ, which has the same meaning. (TA.) مُنْصَاتٌ Straight in stature. (S.)

(A.) b2: ذنّب الأَفْعَى, said of a ضَبّ, It turned its tail towards the viper, or met the viper tail-foremost, in coming forth from its hole; contr. of رَأَّسَ الأَفْعَى.

(here explained by MF as a skin containing yellow water]) was near to coming forth, (AO, T, K,) and the root of her tail rose, and the part thereof that is bare of hair, and she did not [or could not] lower it.

(MF.) 5 تذنّب عَلَى فُلَانٍ He accused such a one of a sin, crime, fault, misdemeanour, or the like, which he had not committed, or though he had not committed any. (A, TA.)

The tail; syn. ذَيْلٌ: (TA: [in the CK, الذِّنْبِىُّ is erroneously put for الذِّنْبِىَّ:]) but accord. to Fr, one uses the first of these words in relation to the horse, and the second in relation to the bird: (T:) or the first is used in relation to the horse (S, A) and the ass [and the like] (S) more commonly than the second; (S, A; *) and the second is used in relation to a bird (S, M, A, Msb) more commonly than the first, (S, M, *) or more chastely: (M, * Msb:) or the second is [properly] of a winged creature; and the first is of any other; but the second is sometimes, metaphorically, of the horse: (Er-Riyáshee, TA:) or, as some say, the second signifies the place of growth of the ذَنَب [or tail]: (M:) the pl. of ذَنَبٌ is أَذْنَابٌ. (S, M, A, Msb, K.) [Hence the following phrases &c.] b2: رَكِبَ ذَنَبَ البَعِيرِ [lit. He rode on the tail of the camel, meaning] (tropical:) he was content with a deficient lot.

The fifty have turned their tail to me]. (M, TA.) b8: اِتَّبَعَ ذَنَبَ

(M, K.) You say, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى ذَنَبِ الدَّهْرِ (assumed tropical:) That was in the end of the time [past]. (M.) And ذَنَبُ الوَادِى and ↓ الذُنَابَةُ: both signify the same [i. e.

(T.) [Accord. to the K, it also signifies A grave: but this is evidently a mistake, which seems to have arisen from a misunderstanding of a statement by ISd, who says,] Aboo-Dhu-eyb uses it metaphorically in relation to a grave, calling it [i. e. the grave] a well, in his saying, فَكُنْتُ ذَنُوبَ البِئْرَ لَمَّا تَبَسَّلَتْ وَسُرْبِلْتُ أَكْفَانِى وَوُسِّدْتُ سَاعِدِى

(M.) [And Umeiyeh Ibn-Abee- 'Áïdh El-Hudhalee, describing a wild he-ass and she-asses, likens to it a certain rate of running which he contrasts with another rate likened by him to a well such as is termed خَسِيفٌ: see Kosegarten's “ Carmina Hudsailitarum,” p. 189.]

A2: Accord. to Fr and the S, it signifies also A fluid like mucus that falls from the noses of camels: but this is a mistake: the right word, as stated by IB and others, is ذُنَانَى. (L, MF, TA.) ذُنَيْبَآءُ A certain grain that is found in wheat, whereof the latter is cleared [by winnowing or other means]. (M, K.) [See also ذُنَيْنَآءُ, in art. ذن.]

ذبح

1 ذُبَحَ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. ذَبْحٌ (S, Msb, K, &c.) and ذُبَاحٌ, (K,) He cut, or divided, lengthwise; clave; split; slit; rent, or rent open; ripped, or ripped open. (S, Msb, K.) [Accord. to Fei,] this is the primary signification. (Msb.) [But see what follows.] You say, ذَبَحَ فَأْرَةَ المِسْكَ (assumed tropical:) He (a perfumer, A) ripped open the follicle, or vesicle, of mush, (A, TA,) and took forth the mush that was in it. (TA.) [In the A and TA this is said to be tropical; the authors evidently holding it to be from ذَبَحَ in the sense here next following.] b2: He slaughtered [ for food, or sacrificed,] (L, TA) and animal, (Msb,) or a sheep or goat, (S, TA,) or an ox or a cow, and a sheep or goat, and the like, (Mgh,) [in the manner prescribed by the law, i. e.,] by cutting the وَدَجَانِ [or two external jugular veins], (Mgh,) or by cutting the throat, from beneath, at the part next the head: (L, TA:) accord. to the K, i. q. نَحَرَ: but correctly, الذَّبْحُ is in the throat; and النَّحْرُ is in the pit above the breast, between the collar-bones, where camels are stabbed: the latter word is used in relation to camels and bulls and cows; and the former, in relation to other animals: or, not improbably, both may have originally signified the causing the soul to depart by wounding the throat, or the pit above the breast, which is the stabbing-place in the camel; and may then have been applied in peculiar [and different] senses by the lawyers. (MF. [See also ذَكَاةٌ, in art. ذكو.]) Also (assumed tropical:) He slaughtered, or slew, in any manner. (L.) [You say, ذَبَحَ عَنْهُ He slaughtered, or sacrificed, for him, by way of expiation.] And ذَبَحَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا (assumed tropical:) [They slaughtered, or slew, one another]. (S, K.) And أَخَذَهُمْ بَنُو فُلَانٍ بِالذُّبَاحِ (assumed tropical:) The sons of such a one slaughtered, or slew, them. (TA.) And ↓ ذبّح (inf. n. تَذْبِيحٌ, KL) signifies the same as ذَبَحَ, except that it applies [only] to many objects; whereas the latter applies to few and to many: thus it is said in the Kur [ii. 46, and in like manner in xiv. 6], يُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَآءَكُمْ (assumed tropical:) [They slaughtering, or slaying, your sons], accord. to the reading commonly obtaining. (Aboo-Is-hák, TA.) b3: Hence, (tropical:) He killed; because الذَّبْحُ [in its proper sense, when the object is an animal,] is one of the quickest modes of killing. (TA.) It is said in a trad., (Mgh, TA,) cautioning against accepting the office of a Kádee, (Mgh,) مَنْ جُعِلَ قَاضِيًا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ فَكَأَنَّمَا ذُبِحَ بِغَيْرِ سِكِّينٍ (tropical:) [Whoso is made a Kádee among the people, he is as though he were slaughtered without a knife]: (Mgh, TA: *) expl. by some as meaning, (tropical:) he is as though he were killed [&c.]. (TA.) b4: [Hence, also, because الذَّبْحُ renders the flesh of an animal allowable, or lawful, as food,] (tropical:) It rendered allowable, or lawful: as salt and the sun and the fishes called نِينَان (pl. of نُونٌ) do wine, by changing its quality, as is said in a trad. (TA.) b5: Also (tropical:) He broached, or pierced, a دَنّ [or wine-jar, making a hole in the mouth, or removing the clay that closed the mouth], so as to draw forth the contents.

A2: تَذْبِيحٌ is [said to be] syn. with تَذْبِيحٌ, (K, TA,) in prayer: accord. to Hr, ذبّح رَأْسَهُ signifies He lowered his head, in inclining his body in prayer; like دبّح: and accord. to Lth, ذبّح signifies he lowered his head, in inclining his body in prayer, so that it became lower than his back: but Az says that this is a mistake, and that the correct word is دبّح, with the unpointed د. (TA.) 6 تذابحوا (assumed tropical:) They slaughtered, or slew, one another. (S, MA, K.) One says, التَّمَادُحُ التَّذَابُحُ (tropical:) [Mutual praising is mutual slaughtering].

(Mgh, Msb.) It is said in the Kur [xxxvii. 107], وَفَدَيْنَاهُ بِدِبْحٍ عَظِيمٍ [And we ransomed him with a great victim].

(TA.) b3: ذَبِيحٌ also signifies An animal that is fit, or proper, to be slaughtered as a sacrifice: (ISk, S, K:) [or that is destined, or prepared, for sacrifice; i. e., an intended victim; like ذِبْحٌ; as appears from the fact that] الذَّبِيحُ is (assumed tropical:) a surname of Ismá'eel, or Ishmael; (K, * TA;) for, accord. to some [or rather the generality] of the Muslims, he was the son whom Abraham designed to sacrifice, though others say it was Isaac: (TA:) and أَنَا ابْنُ الذَّبِيحَيْنِ occurs in a trad. [as said by Mohammad, meaning (assumed tropical:) I am the son of the two intended victims; namely, Ismá'eel and 'Abd-Allah]; for 'Abd-El-Muttalib incurred the obligation to sacrifice his son 'Abd-Allah, the father of the Prophet, by reason of a vow, and ransomed him with a hundred camels.
