(M, L.) It is an inf. n. thus used as an epithet [and therefore applicable without variation to a fem. as to a masc. n., and to a dual and a pl. as to a sing. n.]: (L:) and is also pl.

(S, K.) ↓ تَجَاوِيدُ, [app. signifying the same as جَوْدٌ used as a pl.,] occurring in the following verse of Sakhr El-Ghei, يُلَاعِبُ الرِّيحَ بِالعَصْرَيْنِ قَصْطَلُهُ وَالوَابِلُونَ وَتَهْتَانُ التَّجَاوِيدِ

[Its dust makes sport with the wind in the morning and evening, or night and day, and so do the violent showers of big drops, and the pouring of copious, or abundant, rains, &c.], (L, K, *) is a pl. having no sing.; (K;) or it may be so, like تَعَاجِيبُ and تَعَاشِيبُ and تَبَاشِيرُ; or it may be pl. of تَجْوَادٌ [an inf. n.].

[of pauc., masc.,] أَجْوَادٌ and (of mult., TA) جُوْدٌ, (S, A, K,) like as قُذُلٌ is pl. of قَذَالٌ, but the و is made quiescent because it is an unsound letter, (S,) [in some copies of the K جُوُدٌ,] and أَجَاوِدُ, (S, K,) contr. to analogy, (TA,) or أَجَاوِيدُ, [reg., as pl. of أَجْوَادٌ,] (A,) and جُوَدَآءُ (S, K) and جُوَدَةٌ, (CK, [in some copies of the K omitted,]) or جُوْدَةٌ, or جُوُدَةٌ, [written in the latter manner in a MS. copy of the K,] with ة added to the [proper] pl. form [جُوْدٌ or جُوُدٌ], accord. to the doctrine of Sb: (TA:) جُوْدٌ is used as a fem. pl., (S, Msb,) and is like نُوْرٌ pl. of نَوَارٌ. (S.) b2: Also, applied alike to the male and the female, (S,) A courser; a fleet, or swift, and excellent, horse; (L;) a horse fleet, or swift, in running; or excellent in running, or in the motion of his legs; as also ↓ جَوْدٌ: (Bd in xxxviii. 30:) or that outstrips others: (Jel ib.:) i. q. رَائِعٌ: (S, L, K:) pl. جِيَادٌ, (S, A, Bd, L, Msb, K,) which by rule should be جِوَادٌ, like طِوَالٌ, but this latter form has not been heard from the Arabs; (L;) or جِيَادٌ is pl. of جَوْدٌ, or of جَيِّدٌ; (Bd ubi suprá;) and جَوَادٌ has also for its pl. أَجْيَادٌ, [a pl. of pauc., and irregular, or this is pl. of جَيّدٌ, and therefore, though irregularly, retains the ى substituted for و] (S, L,) and أَجْوَادٌ, [also a pl. of pauc., but agreeable with rule, or this is pl. of جَوْدٌ,] (L,) and أَجَاوِيدُ (S, L) is pl. of أَجْوَادٌ. (L.) Hence, أَقْبَلَ جَوَادًا (assumed tropical:) He came on, or advanced, like a horse that is termed جواد: and سِرْتُ إِلَيْهِ جَوَادًا (assumed tropical:) I went to him, or it, like a horse that is so termed.

جَيِّدٌ, originally of the measure فَيْعِلٌ, (S, Msb,) as the Basrees say, i. e. جَيْوِدٌ, (Msb, TA,) the و being changed into ى because of its being meksoor and preceded by ى, and the augmentative ى being then incorporated into it; (TA;) or, as the Koofees say, of the measure فَيْعَلٌ, like عَيْطَلٌ &c., because there is found no sound word of the measure فَيْعِلٌ except صَيْقِلٌ, a woman's name, and the unsound is accorded to the sound; or, as others say, of the measure فَعِيلٌ, [and so I find in one copy of the S,] originally جَوِيدٌ, the kesreh of the و being, accord. to them, suppressed because difficult of pronunciation, and the quiescent و and ى thus coming together, [the latter receives the rejected kesreh, and] the و is changed into ى and incorporated into the [augmentative] ى; (Msb;) Good, goodly, approvable, or excellent; contr. of رَدِ ىْ; (A, K;) applied to a thing, (S,) or a commodity, an article of household-goods, or the like, (A, Msb,) and a work, or performance: (TA:) pl. جِيَادٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and جِيَادَاتٌ, (K,) the latter a pl. pl., [i. e. pl. of جِيَادٌ,] (TA,) and جَيَائِدُ, (S, K,) with hemz, [and, accord. to some,] contr. to analogy.

Hence,] أَجْوَدُ مِنَ الجَوَادِ المُبِرِّ [More fleet, &c., than the courser that surpasses others]: a prov. (Meyd.) تَجَاويدُ: see جَوْدٌ, in two places.

Arabe, 2nd ed., ii. 369:)] it is stated in the handwriting of As, on the authority of the Arabs, that جونىّ, applied to the قطا, is with ء; app. meaning that it was pronounced جُؤُنِىٌّ: (M, TA:) a single bird of this species is termed جُونِيَّةٌ: (S:) and you say also ↓ قَطَاةٌ جَوْنَةٌ, with fet-h: (TA:) [but جُونِىٌّ seems to be also used as a n. un., like رُومِىٌّ: for it is said that] جُونٌ is pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] of جُونىٌّ, like as تَمْرٌ is of تَمْرَةٌ. (Ham p. 605.)

A6: اكفأ, (K,) inf. n. إِكْفَاءٌ, (TA,) in poetry, accord. to a commentary on the Káfee, He used as the رَوِىّ two letters having their places of utterance near to each other; as ط with د: [such is the signification of the verb accord. to general usage in the present day:] or, accord. to the Ahkám el-Asás, he changed the روىّ from ر to ل, or ل to م: or he made a similar change of one letter to another having its place of utterance near to that of the former: or it has another signification, given below, accord. to the same authority: (TA:) or he used different letters in the rhymes; (S, K;) whether letters having their places of utterance near to each other, or the contrary; (TA;) or in some م and in some ن and in some د, and in some ط, and in some ح, and in some خ, &c.; as says Az; and this is the meaning known to the Arabs: (S:) or he used different vowels in the روىّ: (Fr, S:) or i. q. أَقْوَى: (S, K:) or, accord. to the Ahkám el-Asás, it signifies either as explained above on that authority, (TA,) or he used different final inflections in the rhymes: (K:) or he changed the final vowel in the rhyme; ending one verse with ضَمَّة, and another with كَسْرَة, [which are the two vowels that resemble each other]: (TA:) [see a verse cited in the first paragraph of art. غيب:] or he impaired the end of a verse in any way. (K.) Eloquent Arabs explained the meaning of the verb in this last manner to Akh, without defining any particular kind of impairment: but one made it to consist in the use of different letters. (TA.) 5 تكفّأ It (a vessel &c.) was inverted, or turned upside-down. (TA.) See also 1, in two places. b2: تكفّأ (as also تكّفى, inf. n. تَكَفٍّ; but the original word is that with hemzeh;) He inclined forwards, in walking, as a ship inclines in her course.

(S, K.) b2: تَتَكَافَأُ دِمَاؤُهُمْ Their blood (i. e., the blood of the Muslims,) shall be equally retaliated, or expiated: (A 'Obeyd, S:) i. e., the noble shall have no advantage over the ignoble in the retaliation or expiation of blood. (A 'Obeyd.) 7 انكفأ He turned, or was turned, away, or back, from a thing that he desired to do; (S;) [see also 1;] he returned, or went back, or reverted.

[of 3], and ↓ كُفْءٌ and كُفُوْءٌ [&c., as in the following examples,] Like; equal; a match. (S.) b2: هٰذَا كِفَاؤُهُ, and ↓ كَفِيْئَتُهُ, and ↓ كَفِيؤُهُ, and ↓ كُفْؤُهُ, and ↓ كَفْؤُهُ, and ↓ كِفْؤُهُ, (in the CK, كَفُؤُهُ,) and ↓ كُفُوْؤُهُ, (in the CK, كُفُؤُهُ,) This is like, or equal to, him or it: (K:) And لَا كِفَآءَ لَهُ There is no one, or nothing, like, or equal, to him, or it.

It was thus called in the age of el-Islám, accord. to Az. These two words are said by Z to be syn.; but it is thought that he may have written the former by mistake for الكِتَابُ, adding the ة by a slip of the pen. (Msb.) 4 اكتب He dictated. (S, K.)
