(MF.) كُرْنُبٌ, with damm; [so in the copies of the K in my hands, and in the O, and so accord. to the TA; but I think that the correct reading is كُرُنْبٌ, as the word is written by Golius, in one place, and by Freytag; although, in the K, by the words “ with damm, ” in the case of a quadriliteral word, is generally meant “ with damm to the first and third letters ”;] and كَرَنْبٌ; (K;) but it is commonly pronounced with damm [app. meaning to the first and second letters: كُرُنْب being the name now commonly given to the brassica oleracea, or cabbage; in Greek kra/mbh]: (TA:) the [vegetable also called] سِلْقٌ [properly beet; for which, possibly, cabbage may have been mistaken]: (AHn, K:) or a species thereof, (L, K,) sweeter and more tender than the قُنَّبِيط; of which the wild kind is bitter; and the quantity of two drachms of its roots, dried and pulverized, mixed with wine (شَرَاب), is a tried antidote against the bite of a viper. (Ibn-El-Beytár, K.) It is said, by the botanists, to be a Nabathean word, arabicized. (MF.) كَرْنِيبٌ and كِرْنِيبٌ (K) and كرناب (so in the TA) i. q. مَجِيعَ, (K,) which is the same as كُدَيْرَاءُ: (IAar:) Dates with milk. (T.)
