دَلَمٌ A certain thing resembling the serpent, found in El-Hijáz: (K:) or resembling what is termed the طَبُّوع; not a serpent: (TA:) or it signifies, (TA,) or thus ↓ دُلَمٌ, (so in the T accord. to the TT,) the young one of a serpent: and the pl. is أَدْلَامٌ. (T, TA.) Hence the prov., هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الدَّلَمِ [He is more distressing than the دلم]: (K:) and one says also, هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الدَّلَمِ فِى الشَّفَةِ, meaning [He is more distressing] than flaccidity and pendulousness in the lip.

(S.) b7: [Hence, perhaps,] دَيْلَمٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A calamity, or misfortune. (S, K.) A2: Also The male of the دُرَّاج [i. e. attagen, francolin, heath-cock, or rail]. (Ktr, Kr, S, M, K.) b2: And A species of [the bird called] the قَطَا: or the male thereof [like دَلْهَمٌ]. (K.) A3: Also The tree called سَلَام, (T, K,) which grows in the mountains.

سَوْدَآءَ حَالِكَةٍ كَلَوْنِ الأَدْلَمِ [And verily I purposed a hostile incursion in a night intensely black, like the colour of black leather]. (T.) b4: [Hence,] by way of comparison, one says لَيْلٌ أَدْلَمُ [meaning (assumed tropical:) Black, or intensely dark, night]. (TA.) b5: الدَّلْمَآءُ [fem. of الأَدْلَمُ] (assumed tropical:) The thirtieth night (K, TA) of the [lunar] month: because of its blackness. (TA.)

ضرب

1 ضَرَبَهُ, aor. ـِ (S, O, K, &c.,) inf. n. ضَرْبٌ, (S, O, &c.,) [He beat, struck, smote, or hit, him, or it;] and ↓ ضرّبهُ [signifies the same in an intensive sense, i. e. he beat, &c., him, or it, much, or violently; or in a frequentative sense, i. e. several, or many, times: or rather ضرّب is used in relation to several, or many, objects, as will be shown in what follows]: (K:) accord. to Er-Rághib, الضَّرْبُ signifies the making a thing to fall upon another thing; and, as some say, the making it to fall with violence, or vehemence.

And ضَرَبْتُ عُنُقَهُ [I smote his neck, meaning I beheaded him]; and الأَعْنَاقَ ↓ ضَرَّبْتُ [I smote the necks, meaning I struck off the heads]; the teshdeed denoting muchness [of the action] or multiplicity [of the objects]: Az says that, when the object is one, the Arabs use only the former verb, without teshdeed; but when there is a plurality of objects, either of the verbs; (Msb;) [so that] one says, ضَرَبُوا أَعْنَاقَهُمْ [They smote their necks, or beheaded them], and أَمَرَ الرِّقَابِ ↓ بِتَضْرِيبِ [He gave the order to smite the necks, or to strike off the heads]: (A:) فَضَرْبَ الرِّقَابِ in the Kur xlvii. 4 is originally فَاضْرِبُوا الرِّقَابَ ضَرْبًا [meaning Then do ye smite the necks, i. e. strike off the heads]; (Bd;) the inf. n. being here put for its verb. (Jel.) [Respecting the phrase هُوَ الْيَضْرِبُكَ, see 1 in art. جدع.] b2: [Hence a variety of meanings and phrases here following.]

b3: ضَرَبَ كَلْبَهُ عَلَى الصَّيْدِ (assumed tropical:) [He beat, or disciplined, or trained, his dog for the purpose of the chase]: whence the phrases ضَرَبَ عَلَيْهِ جِرْوَتَهُ and ضَرَبَ جِرْوَةَ نَفْسِهِ and ضَرَبْتُ جِرْوَتِى عَنْهُ [expl. voce جِرْوَةٌ].

[ضَرَبَ بِنَفْسِهِ الأَرْضَ see expl. in the latter half of this paragraph.] b6: ضَرَبْتُ القَوْسَ بِالمِضْرَبِ I struck the string of the bow with the wooden implement [or mallet] used in separating cotton.

(S.) b8: ضَرَبَ الوَتِدَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, He beat [or knocked or struck] the tent-peg, or stake, so that it became firm in the ground. (Lh, TA.)

الجِدَارِ (assumed tropical:) [He stuck, or applied, the mud upon the wall, as a plaster]. (TA.) b12: Hence, accord. to some, the phrase ضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ, in the Kur ii. 58, considered as meaning (assumed tropical:) Vileness was made to cleave to them: or the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) encompassed them, like as the tent encompasses him over whom it is pitched.

[And (assumed tropical:) The night became dark, or was dark; as appears from the following verse.] Homeyd says, سَرَى مِثْلَ نَبْضِ العِرْقِ وَاللَّيْلُ ضَارِبٌ بِأرْوَاقِهِ وَالصُّبْحُ قَدْ كَادَ يَسْطَعُ (assumed tropical:) [He went on in his night-journey, like the pulsing of the vein, while the night was casting its folds of darkness over the earth, and the dawn had almost risen].

(A.) In the L and other lexicons it is said that ضَرَبْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ فِى الشَّرِّ means I caused them to become confused [or I involved them] in evil or mischief. (TA.

(Msb.) and ضَرَبَ بِالقِدْحَيْنِ (assumed tropical:) He practised sortilege with the two arrows; one of which was inscribed with the sentence “ My Lord hath commanded me,” and the other with “ My Lord hath forbidden me: ” a person between hope and despair is likened to one practising this mode of sortilege, which was used by the people of the Time of Ignorance when they doubted whether they should undertake an affair or abstain from it. (Har pp. 465 and 553.) One says also, ضَرَبَ فِى الجَزُورِبِسَهْمٍ

meaning (assumed tropical:) He obtained a share, or portion, of the slaughtered camel. (Mgh.) And hence the saying of El-Hareeree, وَضَرَبْتُ فِى مَرْعَاهَا بِنَصِيبٍ (assumed tropical:) [and I obtained a share of its pasture]. (Mgh.) and the lawyers say, يَضْرِبُ فِيهِ بِالثُّلُثِ i. e.

[And ضَرَبَ يَدَيْهِ فِى المَالِ a phrase expl. to me by IbrD as meaning (assumed tropical:) He busied his hands with the property, in the giving, or dispensing of it.] b25: ضَرَبَ عَلَى يَدِهِ (assumed tropical:) [He struck his (i. e. another man's) hand; meaning] he struck, or made, the bargain with him; or ratified the sale with him: for it is a custom, when two persons are bargaining together, for one of them to put his hand upon the other's in ratifying the bargain.

وَاضْرِبْ لَهُمْ مَثَلًا أَصْحَابَ الْقَرْيَةِ (assumed tropical:) [And propound thou to them a parable, the people of the town] i. e., the story of the people of the town, [or make thou to them a parable, or similitude, or an example, the people of the town;] مثلا may be in the accus. case as an objective complement, اضحاب القرية being a substitute for مثلا; or اصحاب القرية may be regarded as a second objective complement [i. e. second in the order of the words, but first in the order of the sense]: the phrase is differently expl. on account of the different meanings of the verb ضَرَبَ; which signifies he described, or rehearsed; and he declared, propounded, or explained; and he made, caused to be, or constituted; &c.; accord. to some, it is taken from the phrase ضَرَبَ الدِرْهَمَ [q. v.]; because of the impression which a parable or the like makes upon the mind: accord. to some, from ضَرِيبٌ signifying “ a like; ” because the first thing is made like the second: accord. to some, from ضَرَبَ الطِّينَ عَلَى الجِدَارِ [q. v.; because the mud, applied as a plaster, conforms to the shape of the wall]: and accord. to some, from ضَرَبَ الخَاتَمَ [q. v.]; because of the correspondence between a parable or the like and the object to which it is applied, and the correspondence between the signet and its impression.

(Msb.) b39: ضَرَبَ [is often intrans., and thus] signifies also تَحَرَّكَ [i. e.

(S, TA.) One says, ↓ ضاربهُ فَضَرَبَهُ, aor. of the latter verb ضَرُبَ, (K, TA,) agreeably with the general rule respecting verbs signifying the surpassing, or overcoming, in a contest, (MF, TA,) He contended with him in beating, &c., and he surpassed him, or overcame him, therein. (K, * TA.) See also 6. b2: [Golius says, as on the authority of the KL, that ضارب signifies also “ Coivit camelus; ” and Freytag, as on the authority of the K, that it signifies “ inivit camelus camelam: ” but in the KL it is only said that ضَرَابٌ is an inf. n. of a verb having this meaning; and its verb in this sense, as is said in the S and A and Msb and K, is ضَرَبَ, which has been thus expl. in the first paragraph.] b3: ضارب فِى المَالِ and بِالمَالِ, inf. n. مُضَارَبَةٌ, means (tropical:) He trafficked with the property. (A.)

A2: أَضْرَبَ القَوْمُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. إِضْرَابٌ, (TA,) signifies (assumed tropical:) The people, or party, had hoar-frost, or rime, fallen upon them.

(TA.) b3: اضرب عَنْهُ: see 1, near the middle of the paragraph, in two places. [اضرب عَنِ الأَمْرِ is expl. in a copy of the A as meaning عَرَّفَ عَنْهُ, and in the TA, (probably from that copy of the A, as I have reason to believe that it was used by the author of the TA,) is expl. by عرف عنه; but the right reading is indubitably عَزَفَ عَنْهُ, with the dotted ز; meaning (tropical:) He turned away from the thing, or affair; a signification given in the first paragraph: it is said in the A to be tropical. And اضرب عَنْهُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) He digressed from it; made a digression, or transition, from it; namely, a subject of speech or discourse: and particularly (assumed tropical:) he turned from it and retracted it.] b4: اضرب الرَّجُلُ فِى البَيْتِ: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph. b5: اضرب signifies also (tropical:) He was silent; he spoke not: or he lowered his eyes, looking towards the ground: syn. أَطْرَقَ.

(L ibid.) b2: See also 8, in two places.6 تضاربوا, (A, MA, Mgh, Msb, K, in the S تضاربا,) and ↓ اضطربوا, (A, Mgh, Msb, K, in the S اضطربا,) and ↓ ضاربوا, (K,) [They contended in beating, striking, smiting, or hitting, one another; and particularly, in fight;] they smote one another with the sword. (MA.) One says, العَبْدَانِ ↓ اضطرب بِالعَصَوَيْنِ, meaning The two slaves beat each other with the two sticks, or staves. (Mgh.) 8 اضطرب: see 6, in two places. The inf. n. is اِضْطِرَابٌ, of which the dim. is ↓ ضُتَيْرِيبٌ, the ط being changed [back] into ت because the ض becomes movent. (S and O in art. طلق.) b2: [Hence, said of a thing, Its several parts collided; or were, or became, in a state of collision: and hence,] i. q. تَحَرَّكَ (S, Msb, K) and مَاجَ; (K;) [but more significant than either of these; meaning he, or more generally it, was, or became, in a state of commotion, agitation, convulsion, tumult, disturbance, or disorder; was, or became, agitated, convulsed, or unsteady; struggled; floundered; tossed, or shook, about, or to and fro; moved, or went, about, or to and fro, or from side to side; wabbled; wagged; quivered, quaked, trembled, or shivered; fluttered; flickered; and the like;] and ↓ تضرّب signifies the same. (K. [ضَرَبَ, also, is sometimes used in the sense of تَحَرَّكَ, as mentioned before.]) One says, المَوْجُ يَضْطَرِبُ The waves [dash together, are tumultuous, or] beat one another. (S.) And اضطرب الوَلَدُ بِالبَطْنِ [The child was, or became, in a state of commotion in the belly]; (A;) And فِى ↓ تضرّب البَطْنِ [which means the same]. (TA.) and اضطرب البَرْقُ فِى السَّحَابِ The lightning was, or became, in a state of commotion in the clouds; [or it flickered therein;] syn. تَحَرَّكَ. (TA.) and اضطرب فِى أُمُورِهِ He went to and fro occupied in his affairs for the means of subsistence: (Mgh:) and اضطرب, alone, signifies he sought to gain; or applied himself with art and diligence to gain; syn. اِكْتَسَبَ; (K, TA;) and is used by ElKumeyt with المَجْدَ as its objective complement. (TA. [See also يَضْرِبُ المَجْدَ, in the latter half of the first paragraph.]) And اضطرب الرَّجُلُ (assumed tropical:) The man was tall, and therewithal loose, lax, flabby, uncompact, slack, or shaky, in make, or frame. (K, * TA.) And اضطرب حَبْلُهُمْ [properly, Their rope was shaky, loose, or slack; meaning] (assumed tropical:) their word, or sentence, or saying, varied, or was discordant: (K:) or their words, or sayings, [conflicted, or] varied, or were discordant: and so أَقْوَالُهُمْ [their sayings].

(Msb voce شَجَرَ, q. v.) A2: اضطرب خَاتَمًا (assumed tropical:) He asked, or ordered, that a signet-ring should be made, fashioned, or moulded, for him: (K, * TA: [see also 4:]) occurring in a trad.

(TA. in art. طرق.) A2: استضرب العَسَلُ The honey became ضَرَبَ; (S;) i. e., became thick; (A;) or became white and thick: (S, K:) the verb in this sense is similar to اِسْتَنْوَقَ in relation to a he-camel, and اِسْتَتْيَسَت in relation to a she-goat. (S.) ضَرْبٌ an inf. n. used in the sense of a pass. part. n.; (TA;) i. q. ↓ مَضْرُوبٌ [Beaten, struck, &c.]: (K, TA:) in some of the copies of the K, it is made the same as ضَرْبٌ signifying “ a species ” &c.: but this is a mistake. (TA.) One says دِرْهَمٌ ضَرْبٌ (tropical:) [A coined dirhem]; using the inf. n. as an epithet, as in the phrases مَآءٌ غَوْرٌ and مَآءٌ سَكْبٌ. (S.) And هٰذَا دِرْهَمٌ ضَرْبَ الأَمِيرِ, in which ضرب may be thus put in the accus. case as an inf. n., [the meaning being هٰذَا دِرْهَمٌ مَضْرُوبٌ ضَرْبَ الأَمِيرِ (tropical:) This is a dirhem coined with the coining of the prince,] which is the most common way. (L, TA.) b2: (tropical:) A light rain; (S, K, TA;) or so مَطَرٌ ضَرْبٌ: (A:) دِيمَةٌ signifies “ a lasting, or continuous, and still, rain; ” and ضَرْبٌ, a little more than دِيمَةٌ, or a little above this: and ↓ ضَرْبَةٌ [as the n. un.] signifies a fall, or shower, of light rain. (As, TA.) b3: (assumed tropical:) A make, form, fashion, mould, or cast; syn. صِيغَةٌ. (S, TA.) b4: (assumed tropical:) A sort, or species; (S, K;) as also ↓ ضَرِيبٌ; (K;) and accord. to some copies of the K مَضْرُوبٌ, but this is a mistake: the pl. of the first is ضُرُوبٌ. (TA.) b5: Also (tropical:) A like [of a thing and of a person]; (ISd, A, K, TA;) and so ↓ ضِرْبٌ, as related on the authority of Z; (TA;) and ↓ ضَرِيبٌ; (IAar, S, A, TA;) as in the phrase ضَرِيبُ الشَّىْءِ the like of the thing, (S, TA,) and فُلَانٌ ضَرِيبُ فُلَانٍ such a one is the like of such a one: (IAar, TA:) or ضَرْبٌ signifies a like in stature and make: (IAar, TA:) its pl. is ضُرُوبٌ; (TA;) and the pl. of ↓ ضَرِيبٌ is ضَرَائِبُ (S) and ضُرَبَآءُ, this latter occurring in a trad., in the phrase, ذَهَبَ هٰذَا وَضُرَبَاؤُهُ This went away, and the likes of him. (TA.) One says also ضَرْبَ قَوْلِهِ [meaning (assumed tropical:) In the like of his saying; referring to a saying in the Kur-án, &c.; a phrase similar to نَحْوَ قَوْلِهِ]. (Az, T voce إِنْ in several places.) A2: A man penetrating, or vigorous and effective; light, or active, in the accomplishment of an affair or of a want; (K, TA;) not flaccid, or flabby, in flesh. (TA.) And (K) a man (S, TA) light of flesh, (S, A, K, TA,) lean and slender. (TA.) The pl. is ضُرُبٌ; or, accord. to IJ, this may be pl. of ↓ ضَرُوبٌ. (L, TA.) A3: The last foot of a verse: (K, * TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَضْرُبٌ and [of mult.] ضُرُوبٌ. (TA.) A4: See also ضَرَبٌ. b2: [Reiske, as mentioned by Freytag, explains it also as meaning Sour milk: but this is app. a mistake for صَرْبٌ, with the unpointed ص.]

ضِرْبٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

ضَرَبٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and ↓ ضَرْبٌ, but the former is the better known, (K,) Thick honey: (A:) or white honey: (Msb, K:) or thick white honey: (S:) or, as some say, wild honey: and ↓ ضَرَبَةٌ signifies the same: or a portion thereof: (TA:) ضَرَبٌ is masc. and fem.: (S:) [for] it is said to be pl. of ↓ ضَرَبَةٌ, or a coll. gen. n., which is in most cases masc. [but is also fem.]. (Msb.) ضَرِبٌ: see مِضْرَبٌ. b2: Also (tropical:) Herbage smitten and injured by the cold, and by the wind. (TA.) And (tropical:) Herbage smitten by hoar-frost, or rime. (TA.) And أَرْضٌ ضَرِبَةٌ (tropical:) Land smitten by hoarfrost, or rime, so that its herbage is nipped, or blasted, thereby.

(Mgh, Msb.) So in the saying, لَا آخُذُ مَالِى عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا ضَرْبَةً وَاحِدَةً (assumed tropical:) [I will not take what is due to me on thy part save at one time, or once]. (Mgh.) b4: ضَرْبَةُ الغَائِصِ, which is forbidden, is (assumed tropical:) The saying of the diver for pearls, to the merchant, I will dive for thee once, and what I shall bring up shall be thine for such a price.

1 غَرِقَ, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Mgh, Msb,) inf. n. غَرَقٌ, (S, Mgh, O, Msb,) He, or it, (a thing, Msb,) sank, syn. غَارَ, (Mgh,) or رَسَبَ, (TA,) فِى المَآءِ [in water, or in the water]: (S, Mgh, O, Msb:) primarily [he drowned; i. e. he sank under water, and] the water entered the two apertures of his nose so that it filled its passages and he died. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] غَرِقَ فِى البِلَادِ, inf. n. as above, * He (a man) went downwards and disappeared (رَسَبَ) in the lands, or tracts of land. (TA.) A2: غَرَقَ, (thus in the O,) or غَرِقَ, like فَرِحَ, (thus accord. to the K,) He drank a [draught such as is termed] غُرْقَة: (O, K:) so says IAar. (O.) And غَرَقْتُ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ, (O, and thus in copies of the K, in the CK غَرِقْتُ,) or غَرَقْتُ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ غُرْقَةً, (TA,) I took a [draught such as is termed] كُثْبَة of the milk: (O, K, TA:) so says Ibn-'Abbád. (O, TA.) A3: And غَرِقَ He was, or became, without want, or need. (IAar, O, K.) A4: غَرْقًا used in the sense of إِغْرَاقًا, see under 4.2 غَرَّقَ see 4, first sentence. b2: Hence تَغْرِيقٌ became used to signify (tropical:) Any killing: the origin of its being thus used being the fact that the midwife used to drown the new-born infant in the fluid of the secundine in the year of drought, (S, O, K, TA,) whether it were a male or female, (S, O, TA,) so that it died: (S, O, K, TA:) or it is from the phrase غَرَّقَتِ القَابِلَةُ الوَلَدَ meaning (tropical:) The midwife was ungentle with the child [at the birth] so that the [fluid called] سَابِيَآء entered its nose and killed it: or, accord. to the A, غَرَّقَتِ القَابِلَةُ المَوْلُودَ means the midwife did not remove from out of the nose of the new-born infant the mucus, so that it entered into the air-passages of the nose and killed it. (TA.) Hence the saying of Dhu-r-Rummeh, إِذَا غَرَّقَتْ أَرْبَاضُهَا ثِنْىَ بَكْرَةٍ

بِتَيْهَآءَ لَمْ تُصْبِحْ رَؤُومًا سَلُوبُهَا i. e. When her ropes [with which her saddle is bound] kill a youthful she-camel's second young one, [and she casts it in consequence, in a desert in which one loses his way,] she [who is bereft of it] does not become one that shows affection for her offspring, by reason of the fatigue that has come upon her: (S, O, TA:) for, as is said in the T, where this verse is cited, when the saddle is bound on the she-camel that has been ten months pregnant, sometimes the fœtus becomes drowned in the fluid of the سَابِيَآء, and she casts it. (TA.) b3: غُرِّقَ, said of a bridle, [and of the scabbard of a sword, as also ↓ أُغْرِقَ, (see مُغَرَّقٌ,)] signifies (tropical:) It was ornamented, or was ornamented in a general manner, with silver. (TA.) b4: See, again, 4.

يُغْرِقُ الثَّعْلَبَ فِى شِرَّتِهِ is said to mean (assumed tropical:) He outstrips the ثَعْلَب [i. e. the fox] in his sprightliness, and leaves him behind: [see also 8:] or he causes the part of the spearshaft that enters into its iron head to disappear in him who is pierced therewith by reason of the vehemence of his running. (O, TA. *) b5: اغرق الكَأْسَ means (tropical:) He filled the كأس [or wine-cup]. (O, K, TA.) b6: See also 2, near the end. b7: اغرق فِى القَوْسِ [السَّهْمَ being understood] (tropical:) He (the drawer of the bow, i. e., of the string of the bow with the arrow, S, O, K, TA, or the shooter, Msb) drew the bow to the fall: (S, O, Msb, K:) accord. to ISh, الاغراق signifies the sending the arrow far by vehement drawing [of the bow]: accord. to Useyd El-Ghanawee, the drawing of the bow so that it brings the sinews that are wound upon the socket of the arrow, as far as the iron head, to the part that is grasped by the hand; which is termed شُرْبُ القَوْسِ الرِّصَافَ; and one says of him who does so, يَنْزِعُ حَتَّى يَشْرَبَ بِالرِّصَافِ: (TA:) ↓ غرّق, also, signifies the same, (O, K,) inf. n. تَغْرِيقٌ: (O:) and one says, غرّق النَّبْلَ, meaning he drew the bow with the arrows to the utmost extent. (TA.) In the saying in the Kur [lxxix. 1], ↓ وَالنَّازِعَاتِ غَرْقًا, the last word is put in the place of the proper inf. n. of أَغْرَقَ, for إِغْرَاقًا; (Fr, * Az, O, K; *) the meaning being By those angels that pull forth the souls of the unbelievers from their bosoms with a vehement pulling. (Fr, O.) b8: Hence, i. e. from اغرق السَّهْمَ [or اغرق فِى القَوْسِ], one says, اغرق فِى القَوْلِ, (TA,) or فِى الشَّىْءِ, (Msb,) (tropical:) He exceeded the usual bounds, degree, or mode; exerted himself much, beyond measure, or to the utmost; or was extravagant, or immoderate; (Msb, TA;) in the saying, (TA,) or in the thing.

And اغترق حَلْبَةَ الخَيْلِ (tropical:) He (a horse) outstripped, or outwent, the collection of horses started together for a wager that were preceding. (AO, TA.) And [hence] one says, خَاصَمَنِى فَاغْتَرَقْتُ حَلْبَتَهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [He contended with me in an altercation, or he disputed, or litigated, with me, and] I overcame him in the altercation, &c. (TA.) b2: اغترق التَّصْدِيرَ, (O, K, TA,) or البَطَانَ, (O, TA,) (tropical:) He (a camel), his belly being large, (O, K, TA,) and his sides being swollen, (O, TA,) took up the whole of the breast-girth, (O, K, TA,) or the belly-girth, (O, TA,) so that it was too strait for him; as also ↓ استغرقهُ. (O, K, TA.) b3: And اغترق النَّفَسَ (assumed tropical:) He took in the whole of the breath in drawing it in, or back, with vehemence. (S, O, TA.) Accord. to the copies of the K, اغترقت الَّفْسُ, meaning اِسْتَوْعَبَت: but this is a mistake: the correct phrase is اغترق النَّفَسَ, the latter word مُحَرَّكَة [and in the accus. case]; and the explanation, اِسْتَوْعَبَهُ فِى الزَّفِيرِ. (TA.) b4: And تَغْتَرِقُ نَظَرَهُمْ, said of a woman, (tropical:) [She engrosses their look; i. e.] she occupies them in looking at her so as to divert them from looking at other than her, by reason of her beauty: (O, K, TA:) and in like manner one says, تغترق الطَّرْفَ (tropical:) [she engrosses the look]. (O, TA.) [See also what next follows.]10 استغرق (tropical:) He, or it, took, took in or comprised or comprehended or included, or took up or occupied, altogether, wholly, or universally; took in the gross; engrossed; syn. اِسْتَوْعَبَ. (S, O, K, TA.) Hence the phrase of the grammarians, لَا لِاسْتِغْرَاقِ الجِنْسِ (tropical:) [لا denoting the universal inclusion of the genus]. (TA.) [Hence also several other conventional usages of the word]. See also 8 [with which it is interchangeable in several cases]. b2: اِسْتَغْرَقَ فِى الضَّحِكِ is like, (O, TA,) or syn. with, (K,) اِسْتَغْرَبَ (tropical:) [He exceeded the usual bounds, or degree, in laughing; was immoderate in laughing]. (O, K, TA.) [And in the same sense the verb is used in other cases. See also 4, last signification.]12 اِغْرَوْرَقَتْ عَيْنَاهُ His eyes shed tears (S, O, K, TA) as though they were drowned therein: (O, K, TA:) or اِغْرَوْرَقَتْ عَيْنَاهُ بِالدُّمُوعِ his eyes filled with tears but did not overflow. (ISk, Az, TA.) Q. Q. 1 غَرْقَأَتْ, as said of a hen, mentioned in this art. in the K (as being Q. Q.) and also in the TA as said of an egg, see in art. غرقأ.

غَرِقٌ and ↓ غَارِقٌ and ↓ غَرِيقٌ part. ns. of غَرِقَ, (S, O, Msb, K,) the first and second signifying [Drowning; or] sinking in water without dying; (S, * Msb;) and the third, [drowned; or] dead by sinking in water; (Kh, Msb;) i. q. مُغْرَقٌ or مُغَرَّقٌ; (so in different copies of the S;) and accord. to the Bari', the third may have both meanings agreeably with analogy; (Msb;) [see an instance of its usage in the former sense voce تَغَمْغَمَ; and the first is sometimes used in the latter sense; for] it is said in a trad. that the غَرِق is of those who are [reckoned as] شُهَدَآء [or martyrs: see شَهِيدٌ]; (O, TA;) though it is said that غَرِقٌ signifies sinking in water [like as does غَارِقٌ]; and غَرِيقٌ, dead therein; or, accord. to Aboo-'Adnán غَرِقٌ signifies overcome by the water but not having yet sunk; and غَرِيقٌ, having sunk [therein]: (TA:) the pl. of غَرِيقٌ is غَرْقَى. (Mgh, O, Msb, K. *) b2: It is said in a trad., يَأْتِى عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لَا يَنْجُو فِيهِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَنْ دَعَا دُعَآءَ الغَرِقِ [A time will come upon men in which no one will become safe but he who prays with the praying of the drowning]; app. meaning, but he who is sincere in praying, as is he who is on the brink of destruction. (TA.) b3: And مَاتَ غَرِقًا فِى الخَمْرِ, in another trad., means (tropical:) He died going to the utmost point, or degree, in the drinking of wine. (TA.) b4: أَرْضٌ غَرِقَةٌ means Land in the utmost state of irrigation. (IF, A, O, K.) b5: غَرِقٌ and ↓ غَرِيقٌ also signify (tropical:) A man much [or deeply] in debt: and overwhelmed by trials. (TA.) b6: and one says, إِنَّهُ لَغَرِقُ الصَّوْتِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) Verily he is frightened so that his voice is stopped short. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) غُرْقَةٌ A single draught (شَرْبَة [in the CK شُرْبَة]) of milk, &c.: (A 'Obeyd, S, O, K:) or a small quantity of milk, and of beverage, or peculiarly of the former: (TA in art. عرق:) pl. غُرَقٌ. (A 'Obeyd, S, O, K.) غِرْقِئٌ: see art. غرقأ: its hemzeh is augmentative (O, K) accord. to Fr: (O, TA:) and Aboo-Is-hák [i. e. Zj] held it to be so: (IJ, MF, TA:) but in the opinion of MF, there is no probable reason for this, either on the ground of analogy or of derivation. (TA.) غَرِيقٌ: see غَرِقٌ, in two places. b2: One says also, أَنَا غَرِيقُ أَيَادِيكَ, meaning (tropical:) [I am the drowned in the flood] of thy favours. (TA.) غِرْيَاقٌ A certain bird: (IDrd, O, K:) so they assert: but it is not of established authority. (IDrd, O.) غَارِقٌ: see غَرِقٌ, first sentence.

أَنْجُذَان; [see حِلْتِيتٌ;] male and female; in the bitterness of which is a sweetness: (Mgh:) or the root, or stem, (أَصْل,) of a certain plant: or a certain thing [or substance] which originates in worm-eaten trees; an antidote to poisons, (K, TA,) an attenuant of turbid humour, exhilarant, (K, * TA,) and good for sciatica; and [it is said that] he upon whom it is suspended will not be stung by a scorpion. (K, TA.) مُغْرَقٌ: see مُغَرَّقٌ.

مُغْرق, [as though مُغَرِقٌ, but I think it more probable that it is correctly ↓ مُغَرِّقٌ,] applied to a she-camel, That casts her young one, in a perfect state or otherwise, and will not be made to incline to it, or to affect it, nor will be milked; not such as yields her milk copiously, nor [such as is termed]

خَلِفَة [q. v.]. (TA.) مُغَرَّقٌ, applied to a bridle, (tropical:) Ornamented, (S, O, K,) or ornamented in a general manner, (TA,) with silver; (S, O, K, TA;) as also ↓ مُغْرَقٌ: (K:) and likewise applied to the scabbard of a sword. (TA.) مُغَرِّقٌ: see مُغْرِق.

(A.) b3: وَجَأَهُ فَنَثَرَ أَمْعَآءَهُ (tropical:) He smote him with a knife and scattered his intestines].

(T.)
