طُفُولَةٌ: see what next follows.

طُفُولِيَّةٌ, mentioned by ISd and the expositors of the Fs and others, as well as in the K, and also pronounced without teshdeed, [i. e. طُفُولِيَةٌ,] which shows, as do several other reasons, that the ى therein is not that which is the characteristic of rel. ns., though it has been asserted to be so, (MF, TA,) The state, or condition, of the طِفْل; [i. e. early infancy: or, in a larger sense, childhood;] as also ↓ طُفُولَةٌ and ↓ طَفَالَةٌ and ↓ طَفَلٌ; (K;) [inf. ns.] having no verb [corresponding to them].

طَافِلَةٌ, which Golius explains as meaning “ i. q. فَايِدَةٌ et خَيْرٌ, utilitas, bonum,” referring to the KL as his authority, is evidently a mistake for طَائِلٌ, expl. as meaning فَائِدَةٌ and خَيْرٌ in my copy of the KL, which does not mention طَافِلَةٌ in any sense.]

أَطْفَلُ [More, or most, like to the طُفَيْلِىّ: and hence, more, and most, intrusive, uninvited]. أَطْفَلُ مِنْ لَيْلٍ عَلَى نَهَارٍ [More intrusive, uninvited, than night upon day], and مِنْ شَيْبٍ عَلَى شَبَابٍ [than hoariness upon youthfulness], and مِنْ ذُبَابٍ [than flies], are proverbs.

The saying عَبْدٌ إِذَا مَا رَسَبَ القَوْمُ طَفَا is expl. by IAar as meaning [A slave] who, when the people are grave, leaps by reason of his ignorance. (TA.) b6: And طَفَا المَآءُ [not a mistranscription for طَغَا] (assumed tropical:) The water rose, or became high. (TA voce طُوفَانٌ, q. v.) b7: And طَفَا said of a gazelle, (assumed tropical:) He ran vehemently. (K.)
