شنع

1 شَنُعَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. شَنَاعَةٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and شَنَعٌ and شَنَاعٌ, but this last, occurring in a verse, may be used by poetic license for شَنَاعَةٌ, (TA,) It (a thing, S) was, or became, bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly; (S, * O, * Msb, K;) syn. قَبُحَ. (Msb. [In the S and O and K, it is said that شَنَاعَةٌ signifies the same as فَظَاعَةٌ; but the latter seems to import more than the former.]) A2: شَنَعَ فُلَانًا He regarded such a one as bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly, (اِسْتَقْبَحَهُ, S, O, K, TA, in the CK اسْتَخَفَّهُ,) and reviled, or vilified, him, (شَتَمَهُ, O, K, TA, and so accord. to one of my copies of the S,) or loathed him, (سَئِمَهُ,) thus in some of the lexicons, [and accord. to one of my copies of the S,] but [SM says that] شَتَمَهُ is shown to be the right reading by the saying of IAar that شَنَعَهُ, inf. n. شَنْعٌ, means سَبَّهُ. (TA.) [See also 10.] b2: Also, (O, K,) inf. n. شَنْعٌ, (TA,) He disgraced such a one; put him to shame; or exposed his vices, faults, or evil qualities or actions. (O, K, TA.) b3: And شَنَعَ الخِرْقَةَ He frayed the torn-off piece of cloth so that it became shaggy (شَعَّثَهَا حَتَّى تَنَفَّشَ): (O, K: [in the CK, in the place of the last word of the explanation, which is for تَتَنَفَّشَ, is put تَنْفَشَّ:]) and in like manner one says of a thing similar to a خِرْقَة. (O.) A3: شَنِعَ بِهِ: see 10.2 التَّشْنِيعُ signifies تَكْثِيرُ الشَّنَاعَةِ [app. meaning The uttering, or saying, much, or often, what is bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly: and the doing what is bad &c. much or often]: (K:) or the uttering, or saying, what is bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly, (KL, PS,) against any one: (PS:) and the representing, or regarding, as bad, &c.: (KL, PS: *) and the committing [an action that is bad, &c., or] a fault, or vitious action. (KL.) You say, شَنَّعْتُ عَلَيْهِ, inf. n. تَشْنِيعٌ, (S, O,) I uttered, or said, what was bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly, against him: (PS:) from الشَّنَاعَةُ. (O.) And شنّع عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرَ, inf. n. as above, He showed, or declared, to him that the affair was bad, evil, &c.: (TA: [see also 5:]) or characterized the affair to him as bad, evil, &c. (Msb.) A2: And The striving, labouring, or exerting oneself, and being quick, and vigorous, or energetic, syn. التَّشْمِيرُ, (S, O, K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, التَّشْهِيرُ,]) and الاِنْكِمَاشُ, and الجِدُّ, (O, K,) in pace, or going; (O, * K;) as also ↓ التَّشَنُّعُ (K) [and ↓ الإِشْنَاعُ]: thus شنّع is said of a man, meaning He strove, laboured, or exerted himself, and was quick: (TA:) and in like manner شَنَّعَتْ is said of a she-camel, (As, A'Obeyd, S, O,) and of camels, (O,) as also ↓ تشنّعت, (S, * O, expl. in the former by جَدَّتْ only,) and ↓ اشنعت; (O;) in pace, or going: (S, O:) or ↓ اشنعت said of a she-camel means she was quick, or swift. (K.) 4 أَشْنَعَ see the next preceding sentence, in three places.5 تشنّع القَوْمَ He showed, or declared, the case of the people, or party, to be bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly, by reason of their disagreement, and the unsound, or unsettled, state of their opinion. (TA.) A2: And تشنّع He (a man) purposed to do a bad, an evil, an abominable, a foul, or an unseemly, thing or affair. (TA.) b2: See also 2, last sentence, in two places. b3: Hence, (IAar, TA,) He prepared himself for fight: (IAar, K, TA:) or, said of a party of men, they prepared themselves for fight: (O:) and accord. to AA, تشنّع لِلشَّرِّ He prepared himself for evil, or mischief. (O, TA.) b4: And It ( a garment, or piece of cloth,) became rent, or slit. (O, K.) A3: تشنّع الغَارَةَ He spread, or dispersed, the horsemen making a raid, or sudden attack, upon an enemy. (AA, S, O, K, TA.) b2: And تشنّع الفَرَسَ He mounted the horse. (S, O, K.) b3: And تشنّع السِّلَاحَ He put on the weapon, or weapons. (S, O, K.) 10 استشنعهُ He reckoned it bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly. (O, TA.) And accord. to Lth, (O, TA,) one says, بِهِ ↓ رَأَى أَمْرًا شَنِعَ, meaning استشنعهُ, (O, K, TA,) i. e. [He saw a thing] which he regarded as bad, evil, &c. (TA.) b2: And accord. to him, one says also, قَدِ اسْتَشْنَعَ بِفُلَانٍ جَهْلُهُ, (O, TA,) meaning His ignorance has rendered such a one light, inconstant, or unsteady. (TA.) شَنِعٌ: see شَنِيعٌ.

شُنْعَةٌ the subst. from شَنُعَ; (S, O, K;) [i. e.] Badness, evilness, abominableness, foulness, or unseemliness; syn. قُبْحٌ; (Har p. 196;) as also ↓ شُنُوعٌ: (O, K:) thus in the saying, فِى فُلَانٍ

↓ شُنُوعٌ [In such a one is unseemliness, or ugliness]; as also نَظْرَةٌ and رَدٌّ [or rather رَدَّةٌ]: (TA:) and one says also, فِى وَجْهِهِ شُنْعَةٌ and رَدَّةٌ and نَظْرَةٌ [app. meaning In his face is unseemliness, or ugliness]. (IAar TA voce شُفْعَةٌ.) b2: Also Diabolical, or demoniacal possession; or madness, or insanity. (IAar, TA.) شُنُوعٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

شَنِيعٌ Bad, evil, abominable, foul, or unseemly; (S, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ شَنِعٌ (O, K) and ↓ أَشْنَعُ, (S, O, K,) the last like أَكْبَرُ in the phrase اَللّٰهُ

أَكْبَرُ, meaning كَبِيرٌ, accord. to one of the two interpretations of this phrase: (O, TA:) pl. of the first شُنُعٌ. (Msb, TA. *) It is applied to a day, in this sense: or as meaning disliked, or hated: (TA:) and so is ↓ أَشْنَعُ, (S, O, K, TA,) in the former sense, (TA,) or in the latter. (O, K, TA.) And you say مَنْظَرٌ شَنِيعٌ and ↓ مُشَنَّعُ [An aspect that is bad, evil, &c.] and ↓ اِمْرَأَةٌ مُشَنَّعَةٌ, meaning قَبِيحَةٌ [i. e. An unseemly, or ugly, woman]. (TA.) And اِسْمٌ شَنِيعٌ [An evil, or abominable, name]: and قَوْمٌ شُنُعُ الأَسَامِى [A people, or party, having evil, or abominable, names]. (A, TA.) and ↓ قِصَّةٌ شَنْعَآءُ [An evil, or abominable, or a foul, story]. (TA.) And ↓ غَيْرَةٌ شَنْعَآءُ Abominable, excessive jealousy: (O, K, TA:) in [some of] the copies of the K, erroneously, غبرة. (TA.) شَنَعْنَعٌ Incongruous, unsound, weak, or faulty, [and therefore unseemly,] in make; (IDrd, O, K, TA;) as also الخَلْقِ ↓ أَشْنَعُ; applied to a man: the former is from الشُّنُوعُ: and some say that it signifies tall. (TA.) أَشْنَعُ; and its fem. شَنْعَآءُ: see شَنِيعٌ, in four places: and see also شَنَعْنَعٌ.

مَشْنَعٌ: see مَشْنَأٌ, in art. شنأ.

(TA.) b2: [Hence, app.,] شاع, aor. as above, said of a thing, signifies also (assumed tropical:) It became scattered, or dispersed; like شَعَّ. (TA in art. شع.) You say, شاع اللَّبَنُ فِى المَآءِ, (Msb,) or شاعت قَطْرَةٌ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ فِى المَآءِ, and ↓ تشيّعت, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) The milk, (Msb,) or the drop of milk, (TA,) became dispersed in the water, (Msb, TA,) and mixed: (Msb:) and فِيهِ ↓ شَيَّعَ likewise signifies it became dispersed in it.

See المُشَيِّعَةُ, voce مُشَيَّعٌ. b8: [And He followed, or imitated, him; conformed, agreed, or complied, with him; like شَايَعَهُ]. See 3, in three places. b9: شيّع فُلَانًا (tropical:) He encouraged such a one, and emboldened him, (O, K, TA,) and strengthened him. (TA.)

A2: الشِّيَاعُ occurs in a trad., as some relate it, and is expl. as there meaning المُفَاخَرَةُ بِكَثْرَةِ الجِمَاعِ: but AA says that it is a mistranscription for السِّبَاعُ, with س and ب; or that it may be from شَاعَةٌ signifying “ a wife. ” (IAth, TA.) 4 اشاع الخَبَرَ, (S, O,) or الشَّىْءَ, (Msb, K,) or rather السِّرَّ, as in the L; (TA;) and اشاع بِهِ; (O, * K;) as also بِهِ ↓ شاع, first Pers\. شِعْتُ به; (Msb, K;) He spread, published, divulged, revealed, made known, or disclosed, (S, O, K,) and (K) made apparent or manifest, (Msb, K,) the information, announcement, news, narrative, or story, (S, O,) or the thing, (Msb, K,) or the secret.

One says, هُمْ شُيَعَآءُ فِيهَا [They are sharers, or partners, in it, i. e. a house (دَار) or land;] i. e. every one of them is a شَيِّع to his fellow [or fellows]. (O, K.) And ↓ هُمَا مُتَشَايِعَانِ فِى دَارٍ, (O, K,) or أَرْضٍ; (O;) and ↓ مُشْتَاعَانِ, (O, TA,) in the copies of the K, erroneously, مُتَشَاعَانِ; (TA;) They two are sharers, or partners, in a house, (O, K,) or land. (O.) b2: and الدَّارُ شَيِّعَةٌ بَيْنَهُمْ The house is undivided [i. e. shared] among them; syn. ↓ مُشَاعَةٌ. (O, K. [See also شَائِعٌ.]) شَائِعٌ Information, an announcement, a piece of news, a narrative, or a story, spreading; or becoming spread, published, divulged, revealed, made known, disclosed, apparent, or manifest; فِى النَّاسِ [among the people]; so as to reach every one, becoming equally known by the people, not known by some exclusively of others: (TA:) and ↓ شَاعَةٌ [is app. a pl. thereof, like as بَاعَةٌ is of بَائِعٌ, signifying, or so أَخْبَارٌ شَاعَةٌ,] news, or tidings, &c., spreading, or becoming spread. (IAar, O, K.) b2: [(assumed tropical:) A thing scattered, or dispersed, or in a state of dispersion: fem. with ة: pl. of the latter شَوَائِعُ; which may also be pl. of the former applied to a rational being, like فَوَارِسُ pl. of فَارِسٌ.] One says, جَآءَتِ الخَيْلُ شَوَائِعَ (assumed tropical:) The horsemen came scattered, or dispersed, or in a state of dispersion; as also شَوَاعِىَ, formed by transposition. (TA. [But the latter is also mentioned as belonging to art. شعو.]) b3: Also A lot, share, or portion, (سَهْمٌ, S O, Msb, K, and نَصِيبٌ, TA,) undivided; and so ↓ شَاعٌ, (S, O, K, TA,) like as one says سَائِرُ الشَّىْءِ and سَارُهُ; (S, O;) and ↓ مُشَاعٌ; (S, K;) [i. e. shared in common; as though] spread; (TA;) so called because mixed, not being separated: (Msb:) [and it seems, from the usage of a phrase in art. خلط of the K, (المُشَارِكُ فِى الشُيُوعِ,) that ↓ شَيْعٌ, as sing. of شُيُوعٌ, signifies an undivided portion.] b4: Also Anything that is a supplement to a thing: or an addition, or augment, thereto. (TA.) مُشَاعٌ; and its fem., with ة: see شَائِعٌ and شَيِّعٌ.

مَشِيعٌ Filled; (O, K;) applied to a vessel. (K.) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) Very rancorous, malevolent, malicious, or spiteful; filled with baseness, meanness, or sordidness. (K, TA. [In the CK, erroneously said to be, in this sense, مِشْيَع, like مَكْيَل; instead of مَشِيع, like مَكِيل.]) Hence also, هُوَ ضَبٌّ مَشِيعٌ (assumed tropical:) He is [like a lizard of the kind called ضبّ that is] very rancorous, &c. (TA.) IAar says, I heard Abu-l-Mekárim revile a man, saying, هُوَ خَبٌّ مَشِيعٌ, [perhaps correctly ضَبٌّ, but see this word, which is used as a syn. sequent to خَبٌّ,] meaning He is like a ضَبّ that is very rancorous, &c., and unprofitable; (O, TA;) مَشِيعٌ, here, being with fet-h to the م; (O;) from شِعْتُهُ “ I filled it. ” (O, TA.) مِشْيَعَةٌ A قُفَّة [or kind of basket, of palmleaves,] in which a woman puts her cotton and other things: (IDrd, O, L, K:) so called because it accompanies and follows her. (TA.) مِشْيَاعٌ One who will not keep, or conceal, a secret; or one who is unable to conceal his information, news, or tidings; [a babbler of secrets &c.;] syn. مِذْيَاعٌ. (S, O, K.) مُشَيَّعٌ (tropical:) Courageous: (S, O, K, TA:) as though he were encouraged and emboldened and strengthened by another, or encouraged and emboldened by the strength of his heart: (O, K:) or whose heart is encouraged and emboldened by every formidable affair in which he has embarked. (A, TA.) b2: And (tropical:) Very quick or speedy or hasty. (Ibn-'Abbád, Z, O, K.) b3: المُشَيَّعَةُ, in a trad. relating to sheep or goats to be slaughtered as victims on the day of sacrifice, in which trad. such are forbidden, (O, Msb, K,) means the sheep or goat (Mgh) that requires one to urge it on after the [other] sheep or goats, (Mgh, O, Msb, K,) because of its weakness (Mgh, K) and leanness, (Mgh,) or because of its lack of strength to follow them: (O:) or, as some relate it, the word is ↓ المُشَيِّعَةُ, (Mgh, O, Msb, K,) meaning that ceases not to follow the [other] sheep or goats, (الغَنَمَ ↓ لَا تَزَالُ تُشَيِّعُ, O, K, * i. e. تَتْبَعُهَا, Mgh, O, K,) or that ceases not to lag behind the [other] sheep or goats, (Msb,) not coming up with them, (Mgh, TA,) but always going behind them, (TA,) because of its leanness; (Mgh, Msb, K;) from شَيَّعَ الضَّيْفَ [expl. above (see 2)]; (Mgh;) or as though urging on the [other] sheep or goats. (Msb.) المُشَيِّعَةُ: see what next precedes.

مُشَايِعٌ Overtaking, or coming up with another or others; or one that overtakes, &c.: (S, K, TA:) as in the saying of Lebeed, كَمَا ضَمَّ أُخْرَى التَّالِيَاتِ المُشَايِعُ [Like as he that overtakes collects together the last of those cattle that go behind the others]. (TA.) مُشْتَاعٌ: see the dual of each, voce شَيِّعٌ.

مُتَشَايِعٌ: see the dual of each, voce شَيِّعٌ.

ثلث

1 ثَلَثَ القَوْمَ, aor. ـُ (S, M, Msb, K,) inf. n. ثَلْثٌ, (TA,) He took the third of the goods, or property, of the people, or company of men. (S, M, Msb, K.) And ثُلِثَتِ التَّرِكَةُ The property left at death had a third of it taken. (A.) and ثَلَثَ, aor. ـِ [but in this case it seems that it should be ثَلُثَ, as above,] is also said to signify He slew a third. (L.) b2: ثَلَثَ القَوْمَ, (T, S, K,) or الاِثْنَيْنِ, (Fr, T, M,) or الرَّجُلَيْنِ, (Msb,) aor. ـِ (S, M, Msb, K,) [thus distinguished from the verb in the first sense explained above,] inf. n. ثَلْثٌ, (TA,) signifies He was, or became, the third of the people, (T, S, K,) or a third to the two, (Fr, T, M,) or to the two men: (Msb:) or he made them, with himself, three: (T, S, K:) and similar to this are the other verbs of number, to ten [inclusive], except that you say, أَرْبَعُهُمْ and أَسْبَعُهُمْ and أَتْسَعُهُمْ, with fet-h, because of the ع. (S.) A poet says, (IAar, S,) namely, AbdAllah Ibn-Ez-Zubeyr El-Asadee, satirizing the tribe of Teiyi, (IB, TA,) فَإِنْ تَثْلِثُوا نَرْبَعْ وَإِنْ يَكُ خَامِسٌ يَكُنْ سَادِسٌ حَتَّى يُبِيرَكُمُ القَتْلُ [And if ye make up the number of three, we will make up the number of four; and if there be a fifth of you, there shall be a sixth of us; so that slaughter shall destroy you]: (IAar, S, IB:) he means, if ye become three, we will become four: or if ye slay three. (IB, TA.) b3: Also; (S, M, TA;) in the K, “or,” but this is wrong; (MF, TA;) ثَلَثَ القَوْمَ signifies He made the people, with himself, thirty; (A 'Obeyd, S, M, K;) they being twenty-nine: and in like manner one uses the other verbs of number, to a hundred [exclusive]. (A 'Obeyd, S.) And ثَلَثَ also signifies He made twelve to be thirteen. (T.) b4: ثَلَثَ الأَرْضَ He turned over the ground three times for sowing, or cultivating. (A, TA.) b5: See also 2. b6: ثَلَثَ, (T, M, L, TA,) [as though intrans., an objective complement being app. understood,] or ↓ ثلّث, (K, [but the former is app. the right reading, unless both be correct,]) said of a horse, He came [third in the race; i. e., next] after that which is called المُصَلِّى: (T, M, L, K: [in the CK, الذى, after الفَرَسُ, should be omitted:]) then you say رَبَعَ: then, خَمَسَ. (T, M, L.) And in like manner it is said of a man [as meaning He came third]. (T.) b7: لَا يَثْنِى

وَلَا يَثْلِثُ, (so in a copy of the M in art. ثنى, but in the present art. in the same copy written لا يثنِى ولا يثْلِثُ,) or ↓ لَا يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ, (so in a copy of the A, [in the CK in art. ثنى, and in Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 545, لَا يُثَنَّى وَلَا يُثَلَّثُ,]) or ↓ لَا يُثْنِى وَلَا يُثْلِثُ, (so in a copy of the K in art. ثنى, [in the TA, in the present art. and in art. ثنى, without any syll. signs,]) said of an old man, meaning He cannot rise, (M, A, TA,) when he desires to do so, a first time, nor can he (M, TA) the second time, nor the third. (M, A, TA.) 2 ثلّثهُ He made it three; or called it three: (Esh-Sheybánee, and K in art. وحد:) تَثْلِيثٌ signifies the making [a thing] three [by addition or multiplication or division]; as also ↓ ثَلْثٌ [inf. n. of ثَلَثَ]: and the calling [it] three. (KL.) b2: [Hence, ثلّث, inf. n. تَثْلِيثٌ, He asserted the doctrine of the Trinity.] b3: [Hence also,] فُلَانٌ يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ Such a one counts two Khaleefehs, namely, the two Sheykhs [Aboo-Bekr and 'Omar], and [does not count three, i. e.,] rejects the other [that succeeded them]: and فُلَانٌ يُثَلِّثُ وَلَا يُرَبِّعُ Such a one counts three Khaleefehs, [namely, those mentioned above and 'Othmán,] and [does not count a fourth, i. e.,] rejects ['Alee,] the fourth. (A, TA.) b4: لَا يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ: see 1. b5: ثلّث لِامْرَأَتِهِ, or عِنْدَهَا, He remained three nights with his wife: and in like manner the verb is used in relation to any saying or action. (TA voce سَبَّعَ.) b6: ثلّث بِنَاقَتِهِ He tied, or bound, three of the teats of his she-camel with the صِرَار. (S.) b7: ثَلَّثَتْ said of a she-camel, and of any female: see 4. b8: ثلّث said of a horse in a race: see 1. b9: ثلّث البُسْرُ, (M, K,) inf. n. as above, (K,) The full-grown unripe dates became, to the extent of a third part of them, ripe, or in the state in which they are termed رُطَب. (M, K.) b10: تَثْلِيثٌ also signifies The watering seed-produce [on the third day, i. e.,] another time بَعْدَ الثُّنْيَا [which app. means after excepting, or omitting, one day]. (M.) b11: And The making [a thing] triangular [or trilateral]. (KL.) b12: [The making a letter three-pointed; making it to have three dots.] b13: The making [a thing] to be a third part. (KL.) b14: The making the electuary, or confection, of aromatics, or perfumes, that is called مُثَلَّث. (KL.) 4 اثلث القَوْمُ The party of men became three: (Th, S, M, L, K:) and similar to this are the other verbs of number, to ten [inclusive]: (S:) also The party of men became thirty: and so in the cases of other numbers, to a hundred [exclusive]. (M, L.) b2: اثلثت She (a camel, and any female,) brought forth her third young one, or offspring; (Th, M;) and so ↓ ثلّثت, or ↓ اثتلثت. (TA in art. بكر.) b3: لَا يُثْنِى وَلَا يُثْلِثُ: see 1. b4: اثلث said of a grape-vine, It had one third of its fruit remaining, two thirds thereof having been eaten. (M.) 8 إِثْتَلَثَ see 4.

ثُلْثٌ: see ثُلُثٌ.

ثِلْثٌ The third young one or offspring, (M, A, K,) of a she-camel, (M, K,) and, accord, to Th, of any female: (M:) and in like manner others are termed, to ten [inclusive]. (A.) But one should not say نَاقَةٌ ثِلْثٌ [after the manner of ثِنْىٌ, q. v.]. (M.) b2: سَقَى نَخْلَهُ الثِّلْثَ He watered his palm-trees once in three days: (A:) or he watered them بَعْدَ الثُّنْيَا [which app. means after excepting, or omitting, one day]. (K.) ثِلْثٌ is not used [thus] except in this case: there is no ثِلْث in the watering of camels; for the shortest period of watering is the رِفْه when the camels drink every day; then is the غِبّ, which is when they come to the water one day and not the next day; and next after this is the رِبْع; then, the خِمْس; and so on to the عِشْر: so says As: (S, TA:) and this is correct, though J's assertion that ثِلْث is not used except in this case is said by F to require consideration. (TA.) b3: حُمَّى الثِّلْثِ i. q. حُمَّى الغِبِّ, [The tertian fever;] the fever that attacks one day and intermits one day and attacks again on the third day; called by the vulgar ↓ المُثَلِّثَةُ. (Msb.) ثُلَثٌ: see what next follows.

ثُلُثٌ (T, S, M, A, Msb, K) and ↓ ثُلْثٌ (Msb, K) and ↓ ثُلَثٌ, which last is either a dial. var. or is so pronounced to make the utterance more easy, (MF,) A third; a third part or portion; (S, A, Msb, K;) as also ↓ ثَلِيتٌ, (As, T, S, M, Msb, K,) like ثَمِينٌ and سَبِيعٌ and سَدِيسٌ and خَمِيسٌ and نَصِيفٌ, (S,) though Az ignored ثَلِيثٌ (T, S) and خَمِيسٌ: (S:) [and ↓ مِثْلَاثٌ, q. v., app, signifies the same:] the pl. of ثلث, (M, Msb,) and of ثليث also, (M,) is أَثْلَاثٌ. (M, Msb.) It is said in a trad., دِيَةُ شِبْهِ العَمْدِ أَثْلَاثًا [The expiatory mulct for that homicide which resembles what is intentional shall be thirds]; i. e., thirty-three she-camels each such as is termed حِقَّة, and thirtythree of which each is such as is termed جَذَعَة, and thirty-four of which each is what is termed ثَنِيَّة. (TA.) إِنَآءٌ ثَلْثَانُ A vessel in which the corn &c. that is measured therein reaches to one third of it: and in like manner one uses this expression in relation to beverage, or wine, &c. (M, L.) ثِلْثَانٌ, (so in a copy of the M,) or ثَلِثَانٌ, and ثَلَثَانٌ, (K,) I. q. عِنَبُ الثَّعْلَبِ; (K;) the tree thus called. (M, TA.) ثَلَاثٌ, also written ثَلٰثٌ: see ثَلَاثَةٌ, in six places: and ثُلَاثُ, in two places.

ثُلَاثُ and ↓ مَثْلَثُ (S, L, K) Three and three; three and three together; or three at a time and three at a time; (L;) imperfectly decl. [because] changed from the original form of ثَلَاثَةٌ ثَلَاثَةٌ; (K;) or because of their having the quality of epithets and deviating from the original form of ثَلَاثَةٌ: they are epithets; for you say, مَرَرْتُ بِقَوْمٍ

مَثْنَى وَثُلَاثَ [I passed by a party of men two and two, and three and three, together]: (Sb, S:) or they are imperfectly decl. because they deviate from their original as to the letter and the meaning; the original word being changed as above stated, and the meaning being changed to ثَلَاثَةٌ ثَلَاثَةٌ: but the dim. is ↓ ثُلَيِّثٌ, perfectly decl., like أُحَيِّدٌ &c., because it is like حُمَيِّرٌ [dim. of حِمَارٌ], assuming the form of that which is perfectly decl., though it is not so in the cases of أَحْسَنُ and the like, as these words, in assuming the dim. form, do not deviate from the measure of a verb, for مَا أُحَيْسِنَهُ [How goodly is he!] is sometimes said. (S.) It is said in the Kur [iv. 3], فَانْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَكُمْ مِنَ النِّسَآءِ وَثُلَاثَ وَرُبَاعَ, i. e. Then marry ye such as please you, of women, two [and] two, and three [and] three, and four [and] four: [meaning, two at a time, &c.:] here مثنى &c. are imperfectly decl. because deviating from the original form of اِثْنَيْنِ اِثْنَيْنِ, &c., and from the fem. form. (Zj, T, L.) And one says ↓ مَثْلَثَ مَثْلَثَ, like ثُلَاثَ ثُلَاثَ. (T.) You say also, فَعَلْتُ الشَّىْءَ مَثْنَى وَثُلَاثَ وَرُبَاعَ, meaning I did the thing twice and twice, and thrice and thrice, and four times and four times. (L.) b2: [ثُلَاثٌ is app. fem. of ثُلَاثَةٌ, a dial, var. of ثَلَاثَةٌ, of which the fem. is ثَلَاثٌ: and hence,] ذُو ثُلَاثٍ, with damm [to the initial ث], A camel's [girth of the kind called]

وَضِين. (K.) You say, اِلْتَقَتْ عُرَا ذِى ثُلَاثِهَا (tropical:) [lit., The loops of her girth met together]; (A, TA; [but in a copy of the former, ↓ ذى ثَلَاثِهَا;]) meaning, she was, or became, lean, or lank in the belly. (A. [See a similar saying voce بِطَانٌ.]) And a poet says, وَقَدْ ضَمَرَتْ حَتَّى بَدَا ذُو ثُلَاثِهَا [And she had become lean, or lank in the belly, so that her girth appeared]: but some say that ذو ثلاثها [here] means her belly, and the two skins, [namely,] the upper, and that which is pared, or scraped off, after the flaying: (TA:) or, accord. to some, the phrase is حَتَّى ارْتَقَى ذو ثلاثها, meaning, so that her fœtus rose to her back; the ثلاث [here again in a copy of the A written with fet-h to the initial ث, and in like manner ثلاثها,] being the سَابِيَآء and the سَلَا and the womb. (A, TA.) You say also ↓ عَلَيْهِ ذُو ثَلَاثٍ, [so I find it written, but perhaps it should be ذو ثُلَاثٍ,] meaning, (tropical:) Upon him is a [garment of the kind called]

كِسَآء made of the wool of three sheep. (A, TA. [In the latter without any syll. sign to show that ثلاث here differs from the form in the exs. cited before.]) ثِلَاث: see ثَالِثٌ.

ثَلُوثٌ A she-camel that fills three vessels (S, M, A, L, K) such as are called أَقْدَاح, (M, L,) when she is milked, (S, K,) [i. e.,] at one milking. (A.) This is the utmost quantity that the camel yields at one milking. (IAar, M.) b2: Also A she-camel three of whose teats dry up: (S, M, A, K: [accord. to the TA, it is said in the T that such is termed ↓ مَثْلُوثٌ; but I think that this is a mistranscription:]) or that has had one of her teats cut off (IAar, T, M, L, K) by cauterization, which becomes a mark to her, (IAar, M,) and [in some copies of the K “ or ”] is milked from three teats: (T, M, L, K:) or that has three teats; (IAar, TA;) [and] so ↓ مُثَلِّثَةٌ: (T, TA:) or a she-camel having one of her teats dried up in consequence of something that has happened to it. (ISk.) ثَلِيثٌ: see ثُلُثٌ.

ثَلَاثَةٌ, also written ثَلٰثَةٌ, a noun of number, [i. e. Three,] is masc., (S, M, Msb,) and is also written and pronounced ↓ ثُلَاثَةٌ, with damm: (IAar, M, TA:) the fem. is ↓ ثَلَاثٌ, also written ثَلٰثٌ; (S, M, Msb;) [and app. ثُلَاثٌ also, mentioned above, under the head of ثُلَاثُ, but only as occurring with ذُو prefixed to it.] You say ثُلَاثَةُ رِجَالٍ [Three men]: and نِسْوَةٍ ↓ ثَلَاثُ [three women]. (Msb.) In the saying of Mohammad, ↓ رُفِعَ القَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ [The pen of the recording angel is withheld from three persons] ثلاث is for ثَلَاثِ أَنْفُسٍ. (Msb. [See art. رفع.]) [In like manner, ↓ ثَلَاثٌ occurs in several trads. for ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ; as, for instance, in the saying,] ثَلَاثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ حَاسَبَهُ اللّٰهُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا [There are three qualities: in whomsoever they be, God will reckon with him with an easy reckoning]: these are, thy giving to him who denies thee, and forgiving him who wrongs thee, and being kind to him who cuts thee off from him. (El-Jámi' es-Sagheer.) The people of El-Hijáz say, أَتَوْنِى ثَلَاثَتَهُمْ [The three of them came to me], and أَرْبَعَتَهُمْ, and so on to ten [inclusive], with nasb in every case; and in like manner in the fem., ↓ أَتَيْنَنِى ثَلَاثَهُنَّ, and أَرْبَعَهُنَّ: but others decline the word with the three vowels, making it like كُلُّهُمْ: after ten, however, only nasb is used; so that you say, أَتَوْنِى أَحَدَ عَشَرَهُمْ [and ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَهُمْ], and إِحْدَى عَشْرَتَهُنَّ [and ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَتَهُنَّ]. (S.) The saying وَلَدُ الزِّنَا شَرٌ الثَّلَاثَةِ means [The offspring of adultery, or fornication, is the worst of the three] if he do the deeds of his parents. (Mgh.) [It is said that when ثلاثة means the things numbered, not the amount of the number, it is imperfectly decl., being regarded as a proper name; and so are other ns. of number. (See ثُمَانِيةٌ.) See also سِتَّةٌ.] b2: ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ [indecl. in every case, meaning Thirteen,] is pronounced by some of the Arabs ثَلَاثَةَ عْشَرَ: and [the fem.] عَشْرَةَ ↓ ثَلَاثَ, thus in the dial. of El-Hijáz [and of most of the Arabs], is pronounced ثَلَاثَ عَشِرَةَ in the dial. of Nejd. (S in art. عشر.) ثُلَاثَةٌ: see ثَلَاثَةٌ.

الثَّلَاثَآءُ, also written الثَّلٰثَآءُ, (Lth, T, S, M,) or يَوْمُ الثَّلَاثَآءِ or الثَّلٰثَآءِ, (A, Msb, K,) and ↓ الثُّلَاثَآء, with damm, (A, K,) [meaning The third day of the week, Tuesday,] has this form for the sake of distinction; for properly it should be الثَّالِثُ: (S, M:) or it has meddeh in the place of the ة in the noun of number [ثَلَاثَةٌ] to distinguish it from the latter: (Lth, T:) [it is without tenween in every case; when indeterminate as well as when determinate; being fem.:] the pl. is ثَلَاثَاوَاتٌ (S, M, Msb) and أَثَالِثُ. (Th, M.) It has no dim. (Sb, S in art. امس.) Lh relates that Aboo-Ziyád used to say, مَضَى الثَّلَاثَآءُ بِمَا فِيهِ [Tuesday passed with what occurred in it]; making ثلاثاء sing. and masc.; [but this he did because he meant thereby يَوْمُ الثَّلَاثَآءِ; يوم being masc.:] Th is related to have said, بِمَا فِيهَا; making it fem.: and Abu-l-Jarráh used to say, مَضَتِ الثَّلَاثَآءُ بِمَا فِيهِنَّ, treating the word as a numeral. (M.) الثُّلَاثَآءُ: see الثَّلَاثَآءُ.

ثُلَاثِىٌّ a rel. n. from ثَلَاثَةٌ, anomalously formed, (M,) [or regularly formed from ثُلَاثَةٌ,] Of, or relating to, three things. (T, TA.) b2: Three cubits in length, or height; applied in this sense to a garment, or piece of cloth; (T, A;) and to a boy. (T.) b3: A word comprising, or composed of, three letters [radical only, or of three radical letters with one or more augmentative; i. e., of three radical letters with, or without, an augment]. (T, TA.) ثَلَاثُونَ, [also written ثَلٰثُونَ,] the noun of number, [meaning Thirty, and also thirtieth,] is not considered as a multiple of ثَلَاثَةٌ, but as a multiple of عَشَرَةٌ; and therefore, if you name a man ثَلَاثُونَ, you do not make the dim. to be ثَلِيِّثُون, but [you assimilate the noun from which it is formed to a pl. with و and ن from عَشَرَةٌ, or to عِشْرُونَ, and say] ↓ ثُلَيْثُونَ. (Sb, M.) ثُلَيْثُونَ: see what immediately precedes.

ثَلَاثَاوِىٌّ: One who fasts alone on the third day of the week. (IAar, Th, M.) ثُلَيِّثٌ: see ثُلَاثُ.

ثَالِثٌ [Third]: fem. with ة. (T, &c.) The final ث in الثَّالِثُ is sometimes changed into ى. (M.) You say, هُوَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةٍ [He, or it, is the third of three]: thus you say when the two [terms] agree, each with the other; but not ثَالِثٌ ثَلَاثَةً; ثالث being regarded in the former case as though it were a subst.; for you do not mean to convey by it a verbal signification, but only mean that he, or it, is one of the three, or a portion of the three: (Fr, ISk, T, S:) and in like manner you say, هِىَ ثَالِثَةُ ثَلَاثَ [She is the third of three]; but when there is among the females a male, you say, هِىَ ثَالِثَةُ ثَلَاثَةٍ, making the masc. to predominate over the fem. (T.) When the two [terms] are different, you may make the former to govern the gen. case or to govern as a verb; saying, هُوَ رَابِعُ ثَلَاثَةٍ or هُوَ رَابِعٌ ثَلَاثَةً, like as you say ضَارِبُ زَيْدٍ and ضَارِبٌ زَيْدًا; and thus you also say, هٰذَا ثَالِثُ اثْنَيْنِ and هٰذَا ثَالِثٌ اثْنَيْنِ, meaning This makes two to be three, with himself, or itself. (ISk, T, * S. [In most copies of the S, for ثَالِثٌ اثْنَيْنِ is put ثَالِثَ اثْنَيْنِ; and, in the explanation of this phrase, ثَلَّثَ اثْنَيْنِ for ثَلَثَ اثْنَيْنِ: IB has remarked that these are mistakes.]) ↓ ثِلَاث occurs in the sense of ثَالِث in a trad. cited voce ثَانٍ in art. ثنى. (Sh, T in art. ثنى.) b2: ثَالِثَةُ الأَثَافِى meansA projecting portion of a mountain, by which are placed two pieces of rock, upon all which is placed the cooking-pot. (S, K.) Hence the saying, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِثَالِثَةِ الأَثَافِى [explained in art. اثف]. (TA.) b3: [ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and ثَالِثَةَ عَشْرَةَ, the former masc. and the latter fem., meaning Thirteenth, are generally held to be indecl. in every case without the art.; but with the art., most say in the nom. الثَّالِثُ عَشَرَ, accus. الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ, and gen. الثَّالِثِ عَشَرَ; and in like manner in the fem. Accord. to some,] you say, هُوَ ثَالِثُ عَشَرَ as well as هُوَ ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ [He, or it, is a thirteenth]: he who uses the former phrase says that he means هُوَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ, (T, S,) i. e. He, or it, is one of thirteen, (T,) and that he suppresses ثلاثه, and leaves ثالث decl. as it was; and he who uses the latter phrase says that he likewise means this, but that, suppressing ثلاثة, he gives its final vowel to the word ثالث, (T, S,) to show that there is a suppression: (S:) but IB says that the former of these two phrases is wrong; that the Koofees allow it, but that the Basrees disallow it, and pronounce it a mistake. (L.) [And accord. to J, one says, هٰذَا الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ and هٰذِهِ الثَّالِثَةَ عَشْرَةَ This is the thirteenth, or this thirteenth: for he adds,] and you say, هذَا الحَادِى عَشَرَ and الثَّانِىَ عَشَرَ and so on to twenty [exclusive]; all with fet-h; for the reason which we have mentioned: and in like manner in the fem., in which each of the two nouns is with ة. (S.) You say also, ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ [The thirteenth of thirteen]; and so on to تَاسِعَ عَشَرَ تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ: and in like manner in the fem. (I' AK p. 316.) الثَّالُوثُ The Trinity.]

مَثْلَثُ and مَثْلَثَ: see ثُلَاثُ. b2: مثلث [i. e.

مَتْلَثٌ] signifies A chord [of a lute] composed of three twists: that which is of two twists is called مثنى [i. e. مَثْنًى]: or, as some say, these two words signify [respectively] the third chord and the second: their pls. are مَثَالِثُ and مَثَانٍ. (Har p.244.) مُثْلِثٌ A she-camel, and any female, bringing forth her third young one, or offspring: one should not say نَاقَةٌ ثِلْثٌ. (M.) b2: See also مُثَلِّثٌ.

(TA.) And أَرْضٌ مُثَلَّثَةٌ A three-sided piece of land. (TA.) b2: A thing composed of three layers or strata, or of three distinct fascicles or the like; (M, TA;) [see also مَثْلُوثٌ;] and in like manner what are composed of four, and more, to ten [inclusive], are called by similar epithets: (TA:) or a thing of three folds. (Lth, T.) b3: [As a conventional term in lexicology, A word having a letter which has any of the three vowels: ex. gr., بَدْأَةٌ is مُثَلَّثَةُ البَآءِ; i. e., it is written بَدْأَةٌ and بُدْأَةٌ and بِدْأَةٌ. As such also, A verb having its عَيْن (or middle radical letter) movent by any of the three vowels: ex. gr., بَهَأَ بِهِ is مُثَلَّثٌ; i. e., it is written بَهَأَ and بَهُؤَ and بَهِئَ. And as such, مُثَلَّثَةٌ (not مُثْلَثَةٌ) signifies Three-pointed; having three diacritical points: it is an epithet added to ثَآء, to prevent its being mistaken for بَآء or تَآء or يَآء.]

b4: Wine (شَرَاب) cooked until the quantity of two thirds of it has gone; (S, K;) the expressed juice of grapes so cooked. (Mgh.) b5: And A certain electuary, or confection, of aromatics, or perfumes.

مِثْلَاثٌ from ثُلُثٌ is like مِرْبَاعٌ from رُبْعٌ. (M.) See ثُلُثٌ and مِرْبَاعٌ.

مَثْلُوثٌ Property of which a third part has been taken. (A.) b2: [Applied to a verse,] That of which a third has been taken away: (M, K:) whatever is مَثْلُوث is مَنْهُوك: (TA:) or the former word signifies as above, and the latter signifies that of which two thirds have been taken away: this is the opinion of the authors on versification with respect to the metres called رَجَز and مُنْسَرِح: (M, TA:) the مثلوث in poetry is that whereof two feet out of six have gone. (TA.) b3: A rope composed of three strands (Lth, T, S, M, A, K) twisted together, (Lth, T, A,) and in like manner woven, or plaited: (Lth, T:) and ropes composed of four, five, six, seven, and nine, strands, but not of eight nor of ten, are similarly called. (M.) b4: A garment of the kind called كِسَآء woven of wool and camels' hair (وَبَر) and goats' hair (شَعَر). (Fr, T.) b5: مَزَادَةٌ مَثْلَوثَةٌ A مزادة [or leathern water-bag] made of three skins.

(S.) b2: اورس الرِّمْثُ The [trees called] رمث produced وَرْس, a thing yellow like the [garments termed] مُلَآء; as also ↓ وَرَسَ: so it is asserted, on trustworthy authority: (M:) or became yellow in their leaves, (S, K,) after attaining to maturity, (S,) and had upon them what was like yellow مُلَآء; (S, K;) and in like manner one says of a place, اورس المَكَانُ: (TA:) or became yellow in its fruit: (A:) b3: اورس الشَّجَرُ The trees put forth leaves; (K;) as also ↓ وَرِسَ. (IKtt.) وَرْسٌ A certain plant, (S, A, Msb, K,) of a yellow colour, (S, Msb,) resembling sesame, (A, K,) with which one dyes, (A, Msb,) and of which is made the [liniment called] غُمْرَة for the face, (S,) existing in El-Yemen, (S, K,) and nowhere else, (K,) being there sown; (Msb;) it is not wild, but is sown one year, and remains ten years, (AHn, M,) or twenty years, (K,) without ceasing to be profitable, resembling sesame in its manner of growth; and when it dries, on its attaining to maturity, its pericarps (خَرَائِط) burst, and it is shaken, and the وَرْس shakes out from it: (AHn, M,) it is useful for the [discolouration of the face termed] كَلَف, used as a liniment; and for the [leprous-like discolouration of the skin termed بَهَق, [prepared] as a drink; and the wearing of a garment dyed with it strengthens the venereal faculty: (K:) or a certain yellow dye: or, as some say, a certain plant, of sweet odour: or, as is said in the قَانُون [of Ibn-Seenà, or Avicenna,] a certain thing of an intensely red colour, resembling powdered saffron, brought from El-Yemen, and said to be scraped or rubbed off, or to fall off, from its trees: (Mgh:) or, as some say, a species of كُرْكُم, q. v.: or, as some say, resembling كُرْكُم: (Msb:) or a certain thing, yellow, like the [garments of the kind called مُلَآء, that comes forth upon the [trees called] رِمْث, between the last part of summer and the first part of winter, (M, TA,) which, when it touches a garment, soils it: (TA:) or it also, sometimes, [accord. to certain persons who seems to misapply the word, is a substance which] pertains to the [trees called] عَرْعَر and رِمْث, and to other trees, above all in Abyssinia; but this is inferior to that first mentioned (K, TA) in virtue and properties: as to that of the عرعر, it is found between its rind and the main substance, when it dries up; and when it is rubbed, it rubs off; and there is no good in it; but ورس [properly so called] is adulterated with it: and as to that of the رمث, when it is the end of summer, and it has attained its utmost state, it becomes intensely yellow, so that what envelops it becomes yellow, and with this also one adulterates: so says AHn: (TA:) ورس is called in Persian اسپرك [إِسْپَرِكْ]; and in Turkish, آلاجهره. (TK.) [Freytag adds to what he has given on this word from the K, S, TK. as follows: “ Memecylon tinctorium. Sprengel. hist. med., t. ii., p. 444, ed. tert. (ubi ورز scriptum est).

ورط

1 وَرَطَهَا He veiled, concealed, hid, or covered, her, or it, or them; [to what the pronoun relates is not said; but I incline to think that the right reading is وَرَّطَهَا, and that the pronoun relates to camels; (see 2;) as also ↓ اورطها: (L, TA:) from IAar. (TA.) 2 ورّطهُ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَوْرِيطٌ, (S, Msb,) He made him to fall into what is termed وَرْطَة [properly and also tropically, or in its primary sense and also in any of its subordinate senses]; as also ↓ اورطهُ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِيرَاطٌ: (Msb:) both signify (assumed tropical:) he made him to fall into that from which he could not extricate himself: (TA:) or into that from which he could not easily extricate himself. (Msb.) b2: ورّط إِبِلَهُ فى إِبِلٍ أَخْرَى (assumed tropical:) He hid, or concealed, his camels among other camels [in order that they might escape the notice of the collector of the poor-rates]; as also ↓ اورط. (K.) [See also 1, and 3.]3 وِرَاطٌ (S, Msb, TA) and مُوَارَطَةٌ (TA) [The act of mutually making to fall into what is termed وَرْطَة.

A2: And hence,] (assumed tropical:) The act of mutually deceiving, beguiling, or circumventing; or endeavouring to deceive, beguile, or circumvent; (TA;) or the act of deceiving, beguiling, or circumventing; (S, Msb;) and the acting, or advising, or counselling, dishonestly, or insincerely; (S, Msb, TA;) and ↓ وَرْطٌ and ↓ وِرَاطَةٌ, the latter on the authority of J, [accord. to some copies of the S, but in other copies وِرَاطٌ,] signify the same [as substs.] (TA.) You say, لَا تُوَارِطْ جَارَكَ فَإِنَّ الوِرَاطَ يُورِدُ الأَوْراَطَ (assumed tropical:) [Do not thou practise mutual deceit with thy neighbour, or endeavour to deceiving him, &c., for the doing so brings upon its author things, or affairs, from which it is difficult to escape]. (Z, TA.) and it is said in trad, لَا خِلَاطَ وَلَا وِرَاطَ, which is like his [Mohammad's] saying, (assumed tropical:) There shall be no putting together what is separate, nor separating what is put together, from fear of the poor-rate: (S:) خلاط has been explained in its place: (TA:) وراط [has also been variously explained in that place, and, it is said,] signifies the putting together what is separate: and the reverse: (K:) or the dispersing camels (K, TA) among other camels: (TA:) or the hiding camels among other camels; (Th, K;) or in a low, or depressed, piece of ground; in order that the collector of the poor-rate may not see them: (K:) or the making one another to fall into a وَرْطَة, (TA,) one saying to the collector of the poor-rate, “ Such a one has that for which a poor-rate is due,” when he has not; (K, TA;) so accord. to IAar: accord. to Ibn-Háni, it is from أَوْرَطَ الجَرِيرَ فِى عُنُقِ البَعِيِرِ. (TA.) See 4.4 أَوْرَطَ see 2, in two places; and 1. b2: اورط الجَرِيرَ فِى عُنُقِ البَعِير (assumed tropical:) He put the end of the جرير [q. v.] of the camel into its ring, and then pulled it so as to throttle him. (Ibn-Háni. K.) 5 تورّط فِى وَرْطَةٍ He fell into what is termed وَرْطَة [properly and also tropically, or in its primary sense, and also in any of its subordinate senses]. (S.) You say, تورّطتِ الغَنَمُ وَغَيْرُهَا The sheep, or goats, &c., fell into mud from which they could not extricate themselves; or into a depressed piece of ground in which was no way directing to escape: and hence the verb is used in relation to any straitness or difficulty. (Msb.) Thus you say, تورّط فُلَانٌ فِى الأَمْرِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one undertook, or embarked in, the affair, and could not easily extricate himself; and so فيه ↓ استورط: (Msb:) or the former signifies (assumed tropical:) he fell into the affair, or case: (K:) or (assumed tropical:) he became entangled in the affair, and could not easily extricate himself from it; (TA;) and so ↓ the latter: (Sh, K, TA:) and تورّط and ↓ استورط both signify he stuck fast: or (assumed tropical:) he perished; or died. (TA.) 10 إِسْتَوْرَطَ see 5, in three places. b2: استورط مَعَ فُلَانٍ (assumed tropical:) He behaved proudly, haughtily, or insolently, in speech, with such a one. (TA.) وَرْطٌ: see 3.

وَرْطَهٌ Slime, or thin mud, [in the CK, الرَّحْلُ is erroneously put for الوَحْلُ,] into which sheep or goats fall, and from which they cannot extricate themselves: (Msb, K:) this, or, as some say, what here next follows, is the primary signification: (Msb:) a low, or depressed, piece of ground or land, in which is no way, or road, (S, Msb, K,) directing to escape: (Msb:) this is said by A'Obeyd to be the primary signification: (S:) a deep hollow, cavity, or pit, in the ground: (TA:) a deep hollow, cavity, or pit, formed for the purpose of a stratagem, such as may be in a mountain, occasioning difficulty to him who falls into it: (As:) and hence, (TA,) a well: (K, TA:) and anything that is غَامِض [app. here meaning low, or depressed]: (K:) also, by derivation from the first of these significations, (Msb,) or from the second, (S, Msb,) [or some other,] (assumed tropical:) perdition; or destruction; or death: (S, Msb, K:) and (assumed tropical:) [any embarrassing, or difficult, case, or affair;] any case, or affair, from which escape is difficult: (K:) pl. [of pauc.] أَوْرَاطٌ, (S, IS,) the ة in the sing. being app. regarded as elided; (IS;) and [of mult.] وِرَاطٌ, (K,) and وَرَطَاتٌ. (TA.) b2: Also, (tropical:) The podex: or the anus: syn. إِسْتٌ. (K, TA.) وِرَاطَةٌ: see 3.

زعم

1 زَعَمَ, (S, Msb,) aor. ـُ (Msb, MS, JM, [not mentioned in the S nor in the K, app. because well known,]) inf. n. زَعْمٌ and زُعْمٌ and زعْمٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the first of the dial. of El-Hijáz, (Msb, TA,) the second of the dial. of [the tribe of] Asad, (Msb,) or Benoo-Temeem, (TA,) and the third of the dial. of some of [the tribe of] Keys; (Msb;) [generally best rendered He asserted; for it mostly relates to a thing not certainly known: or] he said; (S, Msb, K;) as in the phrases زَعَمَتِ الحَنَفِيَّةٌ [The Hanafees said or asserted, or have said or asserted,] and زَعَمَ سِيبَوَيْهِ [Seebaweyh said or asserted, or has said or asserted]; (Msb;) [and زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ كَذَا He said, or asserted, that it was thus;] either truly or falsely: (K:) mostly used in relation to a thing respecting which there is doubt, (Sh, Az, Msb, K,) and which is not certainly known: (Sh, Az, Msb:) or it is mostly used in relation to that which is false, or that respecting which there is doubt, or suspicion: (El-Marzookee, Msb:) or, as those skilled in the language of the Arabs say, in relation to a thing of which the speaker doubts, and does not know whether it may not be false: (Lth:) or زَعَمَ زَعْمًا means he related a piece of information not knowing whether it were true or false. (IKoot, Msb.) Hence the saying, زَعَمَ مَطِيَّةُ الكَذِبِ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) زَعَمَ is the conveyer, or vehicle, (properly the camel, or beast, that serves as the conveyer,) of lying]. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., بِئْسَ مَطِيَّةُ الرَّجُلِ زَعَمُوا [(assumed tropical:) Very evil, or bad, is the man's conveyer زَعَمُوا]: i. e., when a man desires to journey to a country, or town, he mounts his camel, or beast, that serves to convey him, and journeys until he accomplishes the object of his want: therefore, that with which the speaker prefaces his speech, and by means of which he attains the object of his desire, when he says زَعَمُوا كَذَا وَكَذَا, is likened to the camel, or beast, by means of which he attains the object of want: for زَعَمُوا is [generally] said only in the case of a narration that has no authority whereon to rest, and that contains no proof. (TA.) IKh says that الزَّعْمُ is used in relation to that which is discommended; and that its primary signification is said by some of the expositors of the Kur-án to be The act of lying: (TA: [this signification is also given in the K, as being contr. to the first:]) some say that it is metonymically used in this sense: (Msb:) and it is expl. as having this meaning in the Kur [vi. 137], where it is said, فَقَالُوا هٰذَا لِلّٰهِ بِزَعْمِهِمْ, i. e. [And they have said, “This belongeth unto God,”] with their lying. (Lth, TA.) b2: [Sometimes] زَعَمَهُ signifies He described him, or it. (Har p. 204.) b3: And sometimes زَعَمَ signifies He promised: whence the saying of ' Amr Ibn-Sha-s, تَقُولُ هَلَكْنَا إِنْ هَلَكْتَ وَإِنَّمَا عَلَىاللّٰهُ أَرْزَاقُ العِبَادِ كَمَا زَعَمْ [Thou sayest, or she says, “We perish if thou perish: ” but verily upon God lie the means of subsistence of mankind, i. e. it lies upon Him to supply these, as He has promised]. (TA.) b4: الزَّعْمُ is used also in the sense of الظَّنُّ: (Msb, TA:) one says, فِى زَعْمِى كَذَا [In my opinion it is thus]. (Msb.) [Hence, likewise,] زَعَمْتَنِى

كَذَا, (K,) aor. ـْ (TA,) Thou thoughtest me to be thus. (K, TA.) Aboo-Dhu-eyb says, فَإِنْ تُزْعُمِينِى كُنْتُ أَجْهَلُ فِيكُمُ فَإِنِّى شَرَيْتُ الحِلْمَ بَعْدَكِ بِالجَهْلِ [And if thou think me such that I used to be ignorant, or to act ignorantly, among you, know that I have purchased intelligence since I was with thee (بَعْدَكِ being for بَعْدَ عَهْدِى بِكِ) in exchange for ignorance]. (TA. [The meaning of تزعمينى is there indicated by the context.]) b5: It is also used in the sense of الاِعْتِقَادُ: whence the saying in the Kur [lxiv. 7], زَعَمَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُو أَنْ لَنْ يُبْعَثُوا [They who have disbelieved our revelations have believed, or firmly believed, that they shall not be raised from the dead]. (Msb.) b6: Sometimes, also, زَعَمَ is used in the sense of شَهِدَ: as in the saying of En-Nábighah, زَعَمَ الهُمَامُ بِأَنَّ فَاهَا بَارِدٌ [app. meaning The magnanimous chief bore witness that her mouth was cool]. (TA.) A2: زَعَمَ بِهِ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb) and زَعَمَ, (Msb,) inf. n. زَعْمٌ (S, Msb, K) and زَعَامَةٌ, (S, K,) or the latter is a simple subst., (Msb,) He was, or became, responsible, answerable, amenable, surety, or guarantee, for it; (S, Msb, K;) namely, property. (Msb.) b2: And زَعَمَ, like قَتَلَ, (Msb,) or زَعُمَ, like كَرُمَ, (TA,) aor. ـُ inf. n. زَعَامَةٌ, He was, or became, chief, lord, master, or prince, (Msb, TA,) of a people, (TA,) or عَلَى قَوْمٍ [over a people]; (Msb;) or spokesman of a people. (TA.) A3: See also 4, in two places.

A4: زَعِمَ, aor. ـَ (S, K,) inf. n. زَعَمٌ (S, TA) and زَعْمٌ, (TA,) He coveted, or eagerly desired. (S, K.) [Like its syn. طَمِعَ, it is trans. by means of فِى.] One says, ↓ زَعِمَ فُلَانٌ فِى غَيْرِ مَزْعَمٍ, i. e. طَمِعَ فى غَيْرِ مَطْعَمٍ [Such a one coveted a thing not to be coveted; meaning, a thing of which the attainment was remote, or improbable: see art. طمع]. (TA.) And ' Antarah says, عُلِّقْتُهَا عَرَضًا وَأَقْتُلُ قَوْمَهَا زَعَمًا لَعَمْرُ أَبِيكَ لَيْسَ بِمَزْعَمِ (S,) i. e. I became enamoured of her unintentionally, [or accidentally,] while I was slaying her people; eagerly desiring her love: by the life of thy father, I swear, this is not a [fit] occasion for eager desire: i. e. I can not attain to holding communion of love with thee, [or with her,] any day, while there is this conflict and hostility between the two tribes: (EM p. 222:) لَيْسَ بِمَزْعَمٍ

meaning لَيْسَ بِمَطْمَعٍ : (S:) or, [as some relate it,] زَعْمًا وَرَبِّ البَيْتِ لَيْسَ بِمَزْعَمِ [eagerly desiring: by the Lord of the House (i. e. the Kaabeh), &c.]. (TA. [زَعْمًا is there expressly said to be thus: but the measure does not require its being so.]) 3 زاعم, (K,) inf. n. مُزَاعَمَةٌ, (TA,) i. q. زَاحَمَ [q. v.]: (K:) the ع is a substitute for the ح. (TA.) 4 ازعم He made a person to be such as is termed زَعِيم; (Msb, TA;) as meaning responsible, answerable, amenable, surety, or guarantee. (Msb.) You say, أَزْعَمْتُكَ المَالَ, (Msb,) or الشَّىْءَ, (TA,) I made thee, or have made thee, responsible, &c., (Msb, TA, *) [for the property, or the thing;] i. e. زَعِيمًا بِهِ. (Msb, TA.) A2: He made one to covet, or eagerly desire. (S, K.) You say, أَزْعَمْتُهُ. (S.) [And أَزْعَمْتُهُ فِى الشَّىْءِ I made him to covet, or eagerly desire, the thing; like as you say, أَطْمَعْتُهُ فِيهِ. See زَعِمَ.]

A3: He obeyed (K, TA) the زَعِيم [i. e. chief, lord, or prince]. (TA.) A4: It (an affair) was, or became, possible. (K.) b2: It (milk) began to become good, or pleasant; [or fit to be drunk;] as also ↓ زَعَمَ, (K,) inf. n. زَعْمٌ. (TA.) b3: ازعمت said of a young she-camel, or of one full-grown, She was thought to have fat in her hump. (IKh, TA. [The TA states it to have been asserted by IKh that the verb is only used in this sense, or (for the passage is ambiguous) in this sense and the first mentioned above.]) b4: Also, (K,) or ↓ زَعَمَتْ, (TA, [but this I think to be probably a mistranscription,]) said of the earth, or land, (الأَرْضُ,) It put forth the first of its plants, or herbage. (IAar, K, TA.) 5 تزعّم i. q. تَكَذَّبَ [q. v.]: (S, K:) [it seems here to mean He spoke falsely; and to be trans.; for] a poet says, أَيُّهَا الزَّاعِمُ مَا تَزَعَّمَا [app. meaning O thou asserter of that which thou hast spoken falsely]. (TA. [This hemistich is there cited as an ex. of تزعّم as expl. in the K; and I find no other explanation of this verb.]) 6 تَزَاعَمَا They two competed in discoursing of a thing, and differed respecting it: accord. to Z, it means they talked of, or related, زَعَمَات, i. e. [mere assertions, or] stories in which no confidence was to be placed. (TA.) Sh says that التَّزَاعُمُ is mostly used in relation to a thing respecting which there is doubt. (TA.) A2: One says also, تزاعم القَوْمُ, meaning The people, or party, became responsible, one for another: and hence, تزاعموا عَلَى كَذَا they leagued together, and aided one another, against such a thing. (TA.) زُعْمٌ [originally an inf. n. of زَعَمَ, like زَعْمٌ and زِعْمٌ,] is a word used by the vulgar as meaning كِبْرٌ [i. e. Pride; and, as often used in the present day, pretension: because implying false, or vain, assertion]. (TA.) زَعَمٌ and ↓ زَعَامَةٌ Responsibility, answerableness, amenableness, or suretiship; substs. from زَعَمَ بِهِ : (Msb:) or the latter is an inf. n. (S, K.) زَعِمٌ, applied to roasted meat, (K, TA,) Dripping with its gravy; or succulent, and dripping with its juice or fat; (TA;) having much grease, or gravy; quickly flowing [therewith] over the fire. (K.) زَعْمَةٌ [inf. n. of un. of زَعَمَ; An assertion; &c.: pl. زَعَمَاتٌ]. One says, هٰذَا وَلَا زَعْمَتَكَ and ولا زَعَمَاتِكَ [meaning This I think, and I think not to be true thine assertion and thine assertions]; أَتَوَهَّمُ being understood after لا : these words are used as meaning the rejection of what has been said by the person to whom they are addressed. (K, TA. [In the CK, erroneously, زَعْمَتِكَ and زَعْمَاتِكَ.]) They said also, زَعْمَةٌ صَادِقَةٌ لَآتِيَنَّكَ [i. e. It is a true assertion: I will assuredly come to thee]; using the nom. case : though they said, يَمِينًا صَادِقَةً لَأَفْعَلَنَّ [i. e. I swear “ a true oath : I will assuredly do ” such a thing]; using the accus. case. (Ks, TA.) And one says, تَحَادَثَا بِالزَّعَمَاتِ, meaning They two talked of, or related, each to the other, [mere assertions, or] stories in which no confidence was to be placed. (Z, TA.) زُعْمِىٌّ (with damm, TA) Mendacious: and veracious: (K:) thus bearing two contr. significations. (TA.) زُعْمُومٌ : see the next paragraph.

زَعُومٌ, a fem. epithet, (S, K, &c.,) applied to a she-camel, and to a sheep or goat, Of which one doubts whether there be in her fat or not, (S, K,) and which is therefore felt with the hands, in order that one may know if she be fat or lean: (S:) or a sheep or goat of which one knows not whether there be in her fat or not: (As, TA:) or, as some say, of which men assert that there is in her marrow. (TA.) And, as a fem. epithet, Having little fat: and having much fat: thus bearing two contr. senses: as also ↓مُزْعَمَةٌ [app. in both senses]: (M, K:) and ↓مَزْعُومَةٌ also signifies having little fat; of which people, when they eat of her, say to her owner, “Didst thou assert her to be fat? ” applied to a she-camel. (TA.) A2: Also Impotent in speech; (K;) and so ↓زُعْمُومٌ. (S, * K.) زَعِيمٌ Responsible, answerable, amenable, surety, or guarantee. (S, Msb, K.) Hence, in the Kur [xii. 72], وَأَنَا بِهِ زَعِيمٌ [And I am responsible for it]. (TA.) b2: Also The chief, lord, master, or prince, or a people; (Msb, K;) or [in the CK “ and ”] their spokesman: (K:) their chief is thus called because he speaks for them; like as he is called قَيْلٌ and مِقْوَلٌ: (Ham p. 705:) pl. زُعَمَآءُ. (K.) A2: Also Described; syn. مَوْصُوفٌ. (Har p. 204.) زَعَامَةٌ: see زَعَمٌ. b2: Also High, or elevated, rank or condition or state; or nobility. (K.) and Chiefdom, lordship, mastery, or princedom: (IAar, S, K:) [accord. to the Msb, an inf. n. in this sense:] thus expl. by IAar as occurring in the following verse of Lebeed: (TA:) وَوِتْرًا وَالزَّعَامَةُ لِلْغُلَامِ تَطِيرُ عَدَائِدُ الأَشْرَاكِ شَفْعًا (S and TA in the present art. and in art. عد) [The portions of inheritance of the sharers fly away, two together and singly; but the chiefdom is for the boy]: by his saying شَفْعًا وَوِتْرًا, he means that the male's share of inheritance is like that of two females [so that he has two portions when the female has one]: but other explanations, those here following, are given of الزعامة as used in this verse. (TA. [See also عَدِيدَةٌ.]) b3: A weapon, or weapons; syn. سِلَاحٌ. (S, K.) So, accord. to J, in the verse of Lebeed: for, he says, they used, when they divided the inheritance, to give the weapon, or weapons, to the son, exclusively of the daughter. (TA.) b4: A coat of mail: (K:) or coats of mail: and thus it is expl. by IAar as used in the verse of Lebeed. (TA.) b5: The chief's share of spoil. (K.) b6: And The best and most of the property of an inheritance and the like: (K:) and thus, also, it has been expl. as used in the verse of Lebeed. (TA.) A2: Also, and ↓ زَعَّامَةٌ, An animal of the ox-kind; [probably meaning one of the wild species;] syn. بَقَرَةٌ. (K.) زَعَّامَةٌ: see the next preceding sentence.

مَزْعَمٌ A thing, or an affair, -in which no confidence is to be placed; (S, K;) this saying, or asserting, it to be thus, and this saying, or asserting, it to be thus: (S:) [pl. مَزَاعِمُ.] One says, فِى قَوْلِهِ مَزَاعِمُ (S, TA) i. e. [In his saying are things in which no confidence is to be placed; or] no confidence is to be placed in his saying. (TA.) And هٰذَا أَمْرٌ فِيهِ مَزَاعِمُ This is an affair that is not right; (TA;) [wherein are things] respecting which there is dispute. (K, TA.) And زَعَمَ غَيْرَ مَزْعَمٍ He said that which was not good, or right, or just; and asserted what was impossible. (Msb.) A2: Also A thing that is, or is to be, coveted, or eagerly desired; syn. مَطْمَعٌ. (S, TA.) See two exs. near the end of the first paragraph.

مُزْعَمٌ: see its fem., with ة, voce زَعُومٌ.

أَمْرٌ مُزْعِمٌ A thing, or an affair, that makes one to covet, or desire eagerly. (TA.) مَزْعُومٌ: see its fem., with ة, voce زَعُومٌ.

مِزْعَامَةٌ A serpent. (K.) هُوَ مُزَاعَمٌ No confidence is to be placed in him, or it. (So in the TA. [But I incline to think it a mistranscription for فِيهِ مَزَاعِمُ. See مَزْعَمٌ.])
