سبرت

Q. 1 سَبْرَتَ He begged; and became lowly, humble, or submissive; or affected to be like the مَسَاكِين [or destitute, or needy, &c.]; syn. قَنَعَ; (K, TA; [omitted in the CK, and in my MS. copy of the K erroneously written قَنِعَ;]) and تَمَسْكَنَ. (TA.) سُبْرُتٌ: see سُبْرُوتٌ.

سِبْرَاتٌ: see the next paragraph, in two places.

سُبْرُوتٌ A desert, syn. قَفْرٌ, (S, K,) or a plain, syn. قَاعٌ, (M,) in which is no herbage: (M, K:) or weak land: (TA:) and أَرْضٌ سُبْرُوتٌ and ↓ سِبْرِيتٌ (As, Lh, M) and ↓ سِبْرَاتٌ (M) Land in which is no herbage; (M;) or land in which is nothing: (As, Lh, M:) pl. سَبَارِيتُ and سَبَارٍ, the latter anomalous, mentioned by Lh: (M:) accord. to A'Obeyd, the pl. سَبَارِيتُ signifies deserts, or waterless deserts, (فَلَوَاتٌ,) in which is nothing: and accord. to As, land [or lands] in which nothing grows: (TA:) and one says also أَرْضٌ سَبَارِيتُ, (M, K,) a phrase of the same class as ثَوْبٌ أَخْلَاقٌ, (K,) as though the sing. سُبْرُوتٌ or سِبْرِيتٌ were applied to every portion thereof. (M.) b2: Hence, (TA,) applied to a man, (Az, S, TA,) Needy, in want, indigent, (Az, As, S, M, K, TA,) poor, (Az, As, K, TA,) possessing little, (M, TA,) or, as some say, possessing nothing; (S, * M, TA;) and ↓ سِبْرِيتٌ signifies the same, (Az, S, M, K,) as also ↓ سِبْرَاتٌ, and ↓ سُبْرُتٌ: (M, K:) also bankrupt, or insolvent; syn. مُــفْلِسٌ: (TA in explanation of the first [but equally applying to all]:) the epithet applied to a woman is سُبْرُوتَةٌ and ↓ سِبْرِيتَةٌ; (Az, S;) the latter of which is applied to a man [app. in intensive sense, agreeably with analogy,] as well as to a woman: (M:) and the pl. is سَبَارِيتُ, applied to men and to women. (Az, S.) b3: [Hence, also,] applied to a youth, or young man, Beardless; or having no hair upon the sides of his face. (M, K, TA. [In the K, this signification is immediately followed by the mention of the pls. سَبَارِيتُ and سَبَارٍ.]) b4: And Little, or small, in quantity or number; (S, M, K;) paltry, or inconsiderable: (K:) applied to a thing, (S, K,) and (S) to property, or cattle. (S, M.) b5: Also Tall, or long. (M, TA.) b6: And A skilful, or an expert, guide, well acquainted with the lands. (TA.) It is mentioned by Sb, who says that it is of measure فُعْلُولٌ, like زُنْبُورٌ and عُصْفُورٌ; and most hold him to be right: but some of the authors on inflection assert that it is of the measure فُعْلُوتٌ, from سَبَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ meaning “ I tried, proved, or tested, the thing, or proved it by experiment or experience; ” and that the ت is added to give intensiveness to the signification; which several deny: (MF, TA:) سُبْرُورٌ, however, is mentioned in the K, in art. سبر, as meaning “ poor,” and land “ in which is no herbage. ” (TA.) سِبْرِيتٌ and سِبْرِيتَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

سَنْبَرِيتٌ A man (TA) of evil disposition or nature. (K, TA: but omitted in the CK.) مُسَبْرَتٌ Bald, or bare of hair. (K, TA: but omitted in the CK.)
