(S, A, K.) And حَفَرَ عَلَيْهِ, and حَفَرَهُ, and ↓ احتفرهُ, He dug for him, (namely, a lizard of the kind called ضَبّ, or a jerboa,) to fetch him forth.

[See also 5.] b4: (tropical:) Inivit feminam: (IAar, Msb, K:) the action being likened to that of a man digging a river. (IAar.) b5: .) b6: هٰذَا غَيْثٌ لَا يَحْفِرُهُ أَحَدٌ (tropical:) This is a rain of which no one knows the utmost extent.

(K.) b8: And حَفَرَ, (S, A, K,) aor. as above, (S,) and so the inf. n., (S, A,) (assumed tropical:) He, or it, emaciated, or rendered lean: (S, K:) it (a copious flow of milk, TA) emaciated a she-goat: (K, TA:) (tropical:) he (a young camel) rendered his mother flabby in flesh by much sucking. (A.) There is no pregnant animal that pregnancy does not emaciate, except the camel: (S, A:) she fattens in pregnancy. (S.) A2: حَفَرَ He (a child) shed his رَوَاضِع [or milk-teeth]. (K, TA.)

(A.) IDrst says, in the Expos. of the Fs, that حَفَرَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَفْرَ فُوهُ, is trans.; and that the cause of حَفْر of the teeth, [or the agent of the verb حَفَرَ,] is old age, or the continuance of a yellow incrustation, [or tartar,] or some kind of canker that effects them: but that the verb in the phrase حَفِرَتْ سِنُّهُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. حَفَرٌ, is intrans. (MF.) [The truth probably is, that the former verb is both trans. and intrans., and hence حُفِرَتِ الأَسْنَانُ; and that the latter is intrans. only.] b4: And حَفِرَ, aor. ـَ (assumed tropical:) It was, or became, in a bad, corrupt, or unsound, state.

(TA. [This is evidently the right reading; and therefore I follow it in an explanation in what is here immediately subjoined.]) b2: احفر المُهْرُ لِلْإِثْنَآءِ وَالْإِرْبَاعِ (tropical:) The colt shed his central incisors, or nippers, and each of the teeth immediately next to these: (K: see what next precedes:) or احفر المُهْرُ لِلْإِثْنَآءَ وَالْإِرْبَاعِ وَالْقُرُوحِ the colt shed his milk teeth (رَوَاضِع), [the central pair, the second pair, and the third pair, in each jaw,] and grew others: (S:) or احفر المهر, [inf. n. إِحْفَارٌ,] signifies, the colt had his milk-teeth in a wabbling, or loose, state, previously to their falling out; because, when they have fallen out, their sockets become hollow: (A:) or the colt had his lower and upper central pairs of nippers, of his milk-teeth, in a wabbling, or loose, state: this is during a period extending from thirty months, at the earliest, to three years: then the teeth fall out: then a lower and an upper central pair of nippers grow in the place of the milk-nippers which have fallen out, after three years; and the epithet مُبْدِيءٌ is applied to the colt; and the epithet ثَنِىٌّ is [also] then applied to him, and continues to be until [again it is said of him] يُحْفِرُ, meaning, he has his lower and upper pairs of nippers, of his milkteeth, in a wabbling, or loose, state: then these fall out, when he has completed four years: then the term إِبْدَآءٌ is [again] applied to him; [i. c., he is again termed مُبْدِيءٌ;] and he is, and ceases not to be, termed رَبَاعٍ, until [it is said of him]

يُحْفِرُ لِلْقٌرُوحِ [in the TA, تُحْفِر القُرُوح, which is an evident mistake,] meaning, he has his two corner nippers [in each jaw] in a wabbling, or loose, state: this is when he has completed five years: then the term إِبْدَآءٌ is applied to him as before described: then he is [also said to be]

(El-Wá'ee.) [See 1: and see also حِبْرٌ.]

(K.) b4: See, again, حَفِيرٌ. b5: and see حَفْرٌ.

حُفْرَةٌ What is dug, excavated, hollowed out, or cleared out, (Msb, K,) in the ground; (Msb;) [i. e. a hollow, cavity, pit, hole, trench, ditch, or furrow, dug, or excavated, in the ground: and any hollow, or cavity, in the ground, whether made by digging or (assumed tropical:) natural: a burrow:] as also ↓ حَفِيرَةٌ, (Mgh, Msb, K,) which is of the measure فَعِيلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولَةٌ: (Msb:) pl. of the former حُفَرٌ; (S, Msb;) and of the latter حَفَائِرُ. (Msb.) b2: See also حَفِيرٌ.

حَفِيرٌ is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ [meaning Dug, excavated, hollowed out, or cleared out, in the ground]. (TA.)

(S, A, K.) b3: [Hence, by a synecdoche,] خُفٌّ وَحَافِرٌ (tropical:) Camels and horses.

(TA.) b5: ↓ النَّقْدُ عِنْدَ الحَافِرَةِ, (S, A, K,) and الحَافِرِ, (A, K,) is a prov., (S,) meaning, (tropical:) The payment in ready money is on the occasion of the first sentence spoken (Yaakoob, T, * S, K) by the seller, when he says “ I have sold to thee ”

[such a thing]. (T.) The origin of the saying was this: horses were the most excellent (K) and precious (TA) of the things that they possessed; and they used not to sell them on credit: a man used to say the words above to another; meaning that its hoof should not remove until he received its price: (K:) and he who says عند الحافرة (since he makes الحافر to mean the beast, الدَّابَّة, itself, and since its use in this sense is frequent without the mention of ذَات [prefixed to it],) subjoins to it the sign [ة] of the fem. gender to show that ذَاتِ الحَافِرِ is meant by this name. (TA.) Or they used to say this on the occasion of racing and betting: and the meaning is, when the horse's hoof first falls upon the dug ground [at the goal]: (Abu-l-'Abbás, Az, K:) ↓ حَافِرَةٌ, (Abu-l-'Abbás,) or حَافِرٌ, (K,) signifying dug ground; (Abu-l- 'Abbás, K; *) ground that is dug by a horse's feet; (Har p. 653;) like as one says مَآءٌ دَافِقٌ, meaning مَدْــفُوقٌ. (TA.) Lth says that the saying means, when thou buyest it, thou dost not quit thy place until thou payest ready money. (TA.) This was its origin: then it came to be so often said as to be used with reference to any priority. (K.) b6: [Thus,] ↓ حَافِرَةٌ signifies (tropical:) The original state or constitution of a thing; that wherein it was created: and the returning in a thing, so that the end thereof is brought back to its beginning. (K.) It is said in the Kur [lxxix. 10], أَئِنَّا

↓ لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى الحَافِرَةِ, i. e., (tropical:) Shall we indeed be restored to our first state? (S:) i. e., to life? (Fr:) or to the present world, as we were: (IAar:) or to our first creation, after our death. (TA.) IAar cites the following verse: عَلَى صَلَعٍ وَشَيْبٍ أَحَافِرَةً

مَعَاذَ اللّٰهِ مِنْ سَفِهٍ وَعَارِ meaning (tropical:) Shall I return to my first state, wherein I was in my youth, when I indulged in amatory conversation, and silly and youthful conduct, after hoariness, and baldness of the fore part of my head? [I beg God to preserve me from lightwittedness and shameful conduct.] (S.) One says also, ↓ رَجَعَ إِلَى حَافِرَتِهِ, (A,) and حَافِرِهِ, (TA,) (tropical:) He became old and decrepit: (A, TA:) [as though he returned to his first state; or became in a state of second childishness.] And اِلْتَقَوْا فَاقْتَتَلُوا عِنْدَ

↓ الحَافِرَةِ (S, A, K) and الحَافِرِ (A) (tropical:) They met, and fought one another at the first of their meeting. (S, K.) And ↓ فَعَلَ كَذَا عِنْدَ الحَافِرَةِ and الحَافِرِ (tropical:) He did so at the first, without delay. (TA.) And ↓ رَجَعَ عَلَى حَافِرَتِهِ (tropical:) He returned by the way by which he had come: (T, S:) or by which he had come forth. (K.) حَافِرَةٌ: see حَافِرٌ, in nine places.

مِحْفَرٌ (K) and ↓ مِحْفَارٌ (A, K) and ↓ مِحْفَرَةٌ (K) A spade; syn. مِسْحَاةٌ: (K:) an implement for digging (A, K, TA) of the same kind as a مسحاة: (TA:) pl. of the first [and last] مَحَافِرُ. (Ham p. 665.) مِحْفَرَةٌ: see what next precedes.

طُرُقٌ مُحَفَّرَةٌ [app. Roads much furrowed by the feet of beasts or men: see حَجِيجٌ]. (L and K in art. حج.) مِحْفَارٌ: see مِحْفَرٌ.

مَحْفُورٌ [i. q. حَفِيرٌ as meaning Dug: see the latter.] b2: فَمُ فُلَانٍ مَحْفُورٌ [and أَسْنَانُهُ مَحْفُورَةٌ] (tropical:) The teeth of such a one are affected with what is termed حَفْرٌ or حَفَرٌ. (S, TA.) And صَبِىٌّ مَحْفُورٌ (assumed tropical:) A child having a pimple, or small pustule, in the gum. (El-Wá'ee.) فُلَانٌ أَرْوَغُ مِنْ يَرْبُوعٍ مُحَافِرٍ Such a one is more elusive than a jerboa that goes so deep into his hole that he cannot be dug out. (A, TA.)

حُمَّرٌ and ↓ حُمَرٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the former of which is the more common, (S, Msb,) [coll. gen. ns.,] A kind of bird, (S, Msb, K,) like the sparrow: (S, Msb:) accord. to Es-Sakháwee, the lark; syn. قُبَّرٌ [q. v.]: and حُمَّرَةٌ is said in the Mujarrad to be an appellation applied by the people of El-Medeeneh to the [bird commonly called] بُلْبُل; as also نُغَرَةٌ: (Msb:) حُمَّرَةٌ and حُمَرَةٌ are the ns. of un.: (S, Msb, K:) pl. حُمَّرَاتٌ (S, TA) [and حُمَرَاتٌ].

A2: See also حُمَرٌ.

حَمَّارٌ: see حَمَّارَةٌ. b2: Also A seller of asses. (TA.) حَمَّارَةٌ, [a coll. gen. n.,] Owners, or attendants, of asses (S, K, TA) in a journey; (S, TA;) as also ↓ حَامِرَةٌ: (K:) n. un. ↓ حَمَّارٌ (S, TA) and ↓ حَامِرٌ. (TA.) A2: See also مِحْمَرٌ, in two places.

حَامِرٌ: see حَمَّارَةٌ.

حَوْمَرٌ: see حُمَرٌ.

حَامِرَةٌ: see حَمَّارَةٌ.

أَحْمَرُ [Red: and also brown, or the like:] a thing of the colour termed حُمْرَةٌ: (Msb, K:) it is in animals, and in garments &c.; and, accord. to IAar, in water [when muddy]: and so ↓ يَحْمُورٌ: (K:) fem. of the former حَمْرَآءُ: (Msb:) pl. حُمْرٌ and حُمْرَانٌ: (K:) or when it means dyed with the colour termed حُمْرَةٌ, the pl. is حُمْرٌ (S, Msb) and حُمْرَانٌ; for you say ثِيَابٌ حُمْرٌ and حُمْرَانٌ [red garments]: (TA:) but if you apply it as an epithet to a man, [in which case it has other meanings than those explained above, as will be shown in what follows,] the pl. is أَحَامِرُ (S) and حُمْرٌ: (TA:) or if it means a thing having the colour termed حُمْرَةٌ, the pl. is أَحَامِرُ, because, in this case, it is a subst., not an epithet. (Msb.) ↓ أَحْمَرِىٌّ also signifies the same as أَحْمَرُ: (Ham p. 379:) or, as some say, it has an intensive sense. (TA voce كَرُوبِيُّونَ.) It is said in the S, in art. دك, that حَمْرَاوَاتٌ is a pl. of حَمْرَآءُ, like as دَكَّاوَاتٌ, is of دَكَّآءُ; but it is not so. (IB in that art.) b2: Applied to a camel, Of a colour like that of saffron when a garment is dyed with it so that it stands up by reason of [the thickness of] the dye: (TA:) or of an unmixed red colour; (As, S in art. كمت, and TA;) and so the fem. when applied to a she-goat. (TA.) It is said that, of she-camels, the حَمْرَآء is the most able to endure the summer midday-heat; and the وَرْقَآء, to endure nightjourneying; and that the صَهْبَآء is the most notable and the most beautiful to look at: so said Aboo-Nasr En-Na'ámee: and the Arabs say that the best of camels are the حُمْر and the صُهْب. (TA.) [Hence,] حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ signifies (assumed tropical:) The high-bred, or excellent, of camels: and is proverbially applied to anything highly prized, precious, valuable, or excellent. (Mgh, Msb.) b3: Applied to a man, (AA, Sh, Az,) White (AA, Sh, Az, K) in complexion; (Az;) because أَبْيَضُ might be considered as of evil omen [implying the meaning of leprosy]: (AA, Sh:) or, accord. to Th, because the latter epithet, applied to a man, was only used by the Arabs as signifying “ pure,” or “ free from faults: ” but they sometimes used this latter epithet in the sense of “ white in complexion,”

applied to a man &c.: (IAth:) fem., in the same sense, حَمْرَآءُ: the dim. of which, ↓ حُمَيْرَآءُ, occurs in a trad., applied to 'Áïsheh. (K, * TA.) So, accord. to some, in the trad., بُعِثْتُ إِلَى الأَحْمَرِ وَالأَسْوَدِ, (TA,) i. e. I have been sent to the white and the black; because these two epithets comprise all mankind: (Az, TA:) [therefore, by the former we should understand the white and the red races; and by the latter, the negroes: but some hold that by the former are meant the foreigners, and] by the latter are meant the Arabs. (TA.) One says also, [when speaking of Arabs and more northern races,] أَتَانِى كُلُّ أَسْوَدَ مِنْهُمْ وَأَحْمَرَ, meaning Every Arab of them, and foreigner, came to me: and one should not say, in this sense, أَبْيَضَ. (AA, As, S.) الحَمْرَآءُ, also, is applied to The foreigners (العَجَمُ) [collectively]; (S, A, K;) because a reddish white is the prevailing hue of their complexion: (S:) or the Persians and Greeks: or those foreigners mostly characterized by whiteness of complexion; as the Greeks and Persians. (TA.) You say, لَيْسَ فِى

الحَمْرَآءِ مِثْلُهُ There is not among the foreigners (العَجَم) the like of him. (A.) And accord. to some, الأَحْمَرُ وَالأَبْيَضُ means The Arabs and the foreigners. (TA.) الحَمْرَآءُ [so in the TA, but correctly أَبْنَآءُ الحَمْرَآءِ,] is an appellation applied to Emancipated slaves: and اِبْنُ حَمْرَآءِ العِجَانِ, meaning Son of the female slave, is an appellation used in reviling and blaming. (TA.) b4: Also (tropical:) A man having no weapons with him: pl. حُمْرٌ (A, K) and حُمْرَانٌ. (K.) b5: الحُسْنُ أَحْمَرُ meansBeauty is in الحُمْرَة [app. fairness of complexion; i. e. beauty is fair-complexioned]: (TA:) or (assumed tropical:) beauty is attended by difficulty; i. e. he who loves beauty must bear difficulty, or distress: (IAth:) or the lover experiences from beauty what is experienced from war. (ISd, K.) b6: الأَحْمَرُ A sort of dates: (K:) so called because of their colour. (TA.) b7: الأَحْمَرُ وَالأَبْيَضُ Gold and silver. (TA.) And الأَحْمَرَانِ Flesh-meat and wine; (S, A, K;) said to destroy men: (S:) so in the saying, نَحْنُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الأَسْوَدَيْنِ لَا الأَحْمَرَيْنِ We are of the people of dates and water, not of flesh-meat and wine: (A:) or the beverage called نَبِيذ and flesh-meat. (IAar.) Also Wine and [garments of the kind called] بُرُود. (Sh.) and Gold and saffron; (Az, ISd, K;) said to destroy women; i. e. the love of ornaments and perfumes destroys them: (Az:) or these are called الأَصْفَرَانِ; (AO, TA;) and milk and water, الأَبْيَضَانِ; (TA;) and dates and water, الأَسْوَدَانِ. (A, TA.) And الأَحَامِرَةُ Flesh-meat and wine and [the perfume called] الخَلُوق: (S, K:) or gold and flesh-meat and wine; as also الأَخَاضِرُ: (TA in art. خضر:) or gold and saffron and الخَلُوق. (ISd, TA.) b8: المَوْتُ الأَحْمَرُ (assumed tropical:) Slaughter; (L, K;) because it occasions the flowing of blood: (TA:) and [so in the L, but in the K “ or ”] (tropical:) violent death: (S, A, L, K:) or death in which the sight of the man becomes dim by reason of terror, so that the world appears red and black before his eyes: (A 'Obeyd:) or it may mean (assumed tropical:) recent, fresh, death; from the phrase next following. (As.) b9: وَطْأَةٌ حَمْرَآءُ (tropical:) A new, or recent, footstep, or footprint: opposed to دَهْمَآءُ. (As, S, A.) b10: سَنَةٌ حَمْرَآءُ (tropical:) A severe year; (S, K;) because it is a mean between the سَوْدَآء and the بَيْضآء: or a year of severe drought; because, in such a year, the tracts of the horizon are red: (TA:) when الجَبْهَةُ [the tenth Mansion of the Moon (see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ in art. نزل)] breaks its promise [of bringing rain], the year is such as is thus called. (AHn.) b11: See also حَمْرَآءُ voce حَمَارَّةٌ. b12: جَآءَ بِغَنَمِهِ حُمْرَ الكُلَى, and, in like manner, سُودَ البُطُونِ, (tropical:) He brought his sheep or goats, in a lean, or an emaciated, state. (A, * TA.) أَحْمَرِىٌّ: see أَحْمَرُ.

تَحْمِيرٌ [an inf. n. (of حَمَّرَ) used as a subst.] A bad kind of tanning. (K. [For دِبْغٌ in the CK, I read دَبْغٌ, as in other copies of the K.]) مِحْمَرٌ i. q. مِحْلَأٌ; (K; in the CK مِحْلاء;) i. e. The iron instrument, or stone, with which one shaves off the hair and dirt on the surface of a hide, and with which one skins. (L, TA. [But for the last words of the explanation in those two lexicons, ينشف به, I read يُنْتَقُ بِهِ.]) A2: Also, (S, TA,) in the K, [and in a copy of the A,] مَحَمَّرٌ, which is a mistake, (TA,) A horse got by a stallion of generous, or Arabian, race, out of a mare not of such a race; or not of generous birth; or a jade; syn. هَجِينٌ; (S, A, K;) in Persian, پَالَانِىْ; (S, K;) as also ↓ حَمَّارَةٌ: (K:) or a horse of mean race, that resembles the ass in his slowness of running: and a bad beast: (TA:) pl. مَحَامِرُ (S, A, TA) and مَحَامِيرُ: (TA:) and accord. to the T, ↓ حَمَّارَةٌ signifies [not as it is explained above, as a sing., but] i. q. مَحَامِرُ; and Z explains it as an epithet applied to horses, signifying that run like asses. (TA.) b2: Also An ignoble, or a mean, man: (K, * TA:) and a man who will not give unless pressed and importuned. (K, * TA.) المُحَمِّرَةٌ A sect of the خُرَّمِيَّة, who opposed the مُبَيِّضَة (S, K) and the مُسَوِّدَة: (TA:) a single person thereof was called مُحَمِّرٌ: (S, K:) they made their ensigns red, in opposition to the مسوّدة of the Benoo-Háshim; and hence they were thus called, like as the حَرُورِيَّة were called المُبَيِّضَةُ because their ensigns in war were white. (T.) مَحْمُورٌ: see حَمِيرٌ.

مَحْمُورَآءُ: see حِمَارٌ يَحْمُورٌ The wild ass: see حِمَارٌ: (S, Mgh, K:) or a certain kind of wild animal: (Mgh:) [the oryx; to which the name is generally applied; and so in Hebrew: see also بَقَرُ الوَحْشِ, in art. بقر:] a certain beast (K, TA) resembling the she-goat.

Accord. to IAth, the primary signification of حَلِفٌ is The act of confederating, or making a compact or confederacy, to aid, or assist; and making an agreement: [but this meaning is afterwards said in the TA to be tropical:] when the object of this, in the time of paganism, was to aid in sedition or the like, and in fighting, and incursions into the territories of enemies, it was forbidden by Mohammad: when the object was to aid the wronged, and for making close the ties of relationship, and the like, he confirmed it.

(TA.) b3: and أَحْلَفَتِ الحَلْفَآءُ The حلفاء attained to maturity. (IAar, K.) [By الحلفاء would seem to be here meant the clamorous female slave: for when this word means a kind of grass, the ا is not that which denotes the fem. gender, but is a letter of quasicoordination, if its n. of un. be حَلْفَآءَةٌ, as in the Msb: but accord. to Sb, it is in this sense sing. and pl.; and as pl., it is fem.; and in a description of it by Aboo-Ziyád, cited by AHn, it is made fem.]6 تحالفوا عَلَى كَذَا They swore, one to another, respecting, or to do, such a thing; as also ↓ احتلفوا.

(Z, TA.) b4: حَلِيفُ الغَرْبِ, in a poem of Sa'ideh Ibn-Ju-eiyeh, (Skr, K, * TA,) means (tropical:) A sharp spear-head, (K,) or a spear with a sharp head: (Skr, TA:) or it means a brisk, lively, or sprightly, horse. (Skr, K.) Az says, سِنَانٌ حَلِيفٌ means (tropical:) A sharp spear-head: and I think that it is termed حليف because the sharpness of its point is likened to the sharpness of the points of [the grass called] حَلْفَآء. (TA.) حَلَافَةٌ (assumed tropical:) Sharpness, in anything. (TA.) وَادٍ حُلَافِىٌّ A valley that produces [the grass called] حَلْفَآء. (Sgh, K.) حُلَيْفِيَّةٌ: see حَلْفَآء.

حَلَّافٌ and حَلَّافَةٌ: see what next follows.

حَالِفٌ [Swearing:] and ↓ حَلَّافٌ that swears much, or often; and so ↓ حَلَّافَةٌ [but in a more intensive sense]. (TA.) مَا أَحْلَفَ لِسَانَهُ (tropical:) How sharp-tongued is he, (K, * TA,) and how chaste, or eloquent, in speech! (TA.) أُحْلُوفَةٌ: see حِلْفَةٌ.

مُحْلِفٌ (tropical:) Anything respecting which one doubts, so that people swear respecting it; (ISd, L, K, TA;) so called because it occasions swearing: (ISd, TA:) such is also termed مُحْنِثٌ. (L.) [Hence,] (tropical:) A boy of whom one doubts whether he have attained to puberty. (IAar, TA.) [and hence] it is said, حَضَارِ وَالوَزْنُ مُحْلَفَانِ (tropical:) [Hadári and El-Wezn are two causes of swearing]: these are two stars: the reason of the saying is that which is explained in art. حضر, voce حَضَارِ. (S, K.) Hence, also, كُمَيْتٌ مُحْلِفَةٌ, (S,) or كميت مُحْلِفٌ, (K,) i. e. (tropical:) [A bay] not of a clear hue; (S, TA;) between that termed أَحْوَى and that termed أَحَمُّ: accord. to the K, of a clear hue; but this is the meaning of غَيْرُ مُحْلِفٍ. (TA.) A poet says, (S,) namely Hubeyreh Ibn-'Abd-Menáf El-Yarboo'ee, also called, after his mother, Ibn-El-Kelhabeh, (IB,) كُمَيْتٌ غَيْرُ مُحْلِفَةٍ وَلٰكِنْ كَلَوْنِ الصِّرْفِ عُلَّ بِهِ الأَدِيمُ [A bay not of a dubious hue, but like the colour of the صرف (q. v.) with which the hide is dyed a second time]; i. e., of a clear hue, so that one does not swear that she is otherwise than such: (S, L:) accord. to IAar, not requiring her owner to swear that he has seen her like in generousness: but the former is the right meaning. (L.) Also نَاقَةٌ مُحْلِفَةٌ (tropical:) A she-camel respecting the fatness of which one doubts. (TA.) محلفة [app. مَحْلَفَةٌ]: see حَلِفَةٌ.

مَحْلُوفَةٌ: see حِلْفَةٌ.

One says, يُحْمَلُ عَلَى الأَكْثَرِ (assumed tropical:) It (a word) is made to accord in form with those words with which it may be compared that constitute the greater number: thus one says of رَحْمَانُ, which is made to accord in form with words of the measure فَعْلَانُ, though it has not a fem. of the measure فَعْلَى, in preference to فَعْلَانٌ, because words of the measure فَعْلَانُ are more numerous than those of the measure فَعْلَانٌ. And يُحْمَلُ عَلَى نَقِيضِهِ (assumed tropical:) It (a word) is made to accord in form with its contrary in meaning: thus عِجَافٌ, an anomalous pl. of أَعْحَفُ, is made to accord. in form with سِمَانٌ, a regular pl. of سَمِينٌ. and يَحمَلُ عَلَى المَعْنَى (assumed tropical:) It (a word) is made to accord syntactically with its meaning: and يُحْمَلُ عَلَى اللَّفْظِ (assumed tropical:) It is made to accord syntactically with its grammatical character: the former is said when, in a sentence, we make a mase. word fem., and the contrary, because the meaning allows us to substitute a fem. syn. for the masc. word, and a masc. syn. for the fem. word: for ex., it is said in the Kur vi. 78, فَلَمَّا رَأَى الشَّمْسَ بَازِغَةً قَالَ هٰذَا رَبِّى “ And when he saw the sun rising, he said, This is my Lord: ” here (by saying بازغة) الشمس is first made to accord syntactically with its grammatical character (تُحْمَلُ عَلَى اللَّفْظِ); and then (by saying هٰذَا instead of هٰذِهِ) it is made to accord syntactically with its meaning (تُحْمَلُ عَلَى المَعْنَى), which is الجِرْم or the like: this is allowable; but the reverse in respect of order is of weak authority; because the meaning is of more importance than the grammatical character of the word. (Collected from the Kull pp. 156 and 157, and other works.)] b21: حَمَلَهُ أَحْسَنَ مَحْيَلٍ (assumed tropical:) [He put the best construction upon it; namely, a saying: محمل being here an inf. n.]. (TA in art. ابو) b22: [حَمَلَهُ عَلَى النَّاسِخِ (assumed tropical:) He attributed it to, or charged it upon, the copyist; namely, a mistake. حُمِلَ علَى النَّاسِخِ, said of a mistake, occurs in the K in art. ربخ b23: عَلَى آخَرَ حَمَلَ شَيْئًا, in logic, means (assumed tropical:) He predicated a thing of another thing.] b24: See also حُمْلَانٌ.2 حمّلهُ الشَّىْءَ, (Msb,) and الرِّسَالَةَ, (S, TA,) inf. n. تَحْمِيلٌ, (TA,) He made him, or constrained him, to bear or carry [the thing, and the message; and in like manner, عَلَيْهِ الشَّىْءَ ↓ حَمَلَ]. (S, Msb, * TA.) [And حمّلهُ, alone, He loaded him; namely, a camel, &c.] You say also, حَمَّلَهُ الأَمْرَ ↓ فَتَحَمَّلَهُ, inf. n. of the former تَحْمِيلٌ and حِمَّالٌ, like كِذَّابٌ, [which is of the dial. of El-Yemen], and of the latter verb تَحَمُّلٌ and تِحِمَّالٌ [like تِكِلَّامٌ &c.], (K,) (assumed tropical:) He imposed upon him the affair, as a task, or in spite of difficulty or trouble or inconvenience, and he undertook it, as a task, &c. (Msb in art. كلف.) And ↓ حَمَّلْتُهُ أَمْرِى فَمَا تَحَمَّلَ (assumed tropical:) [I imposed upon him my affair, as a task, &c., but he did not undertake it]. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xxiv. 53], فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيْكُمْ مَا حُمِّلْتُمْ (assumed tropical:) [Upon him rests only that which he has had imposed upon him; and upon you, that which ye have had imposed upon you]: i. e., upon the Prophet rests the declaring of that which has been revealed to him; and upon you, the following him as a guide. (TA.) And رَبَّنَا عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ ↓ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ ↓ تَحْمِلٌ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ (assumed tropical:) [O our Lord, and do not Thou impose upon us a burden, like as Thou imposedst it upon those before us: O our Lord, and do not Thou impose upon us that which we have not power to bear]: (Kur ii. last verse:) or, accord. to one reading, تُحَيِّلْ, which has an intensive signification [when followed by على]. (Bd.) b2: [حمّلهُ ذَنْبًا (assumed tropical:) He charged him with a crime, or an offence: see a verse of En-Nábighah cited voce عَرٌّ.]3 حاملهُ [He bore with him a burden]. You say, of a Wezeer, حَامَلَ المَلِكَ أَعْبَآءَ المُلْكِ (assumed tropical:) [He bore with the King the burdens of the regal office]. (A in art. وزر.) [See also 4.] b2: Also (assumed tropical:) He requited him; namely, a man: or, accord. to AA, مُحَامَلَةٌ signifies the requiting with beneficence. (TA.) 4 احملهُ He helped him to bear, or carry, (T, S,) that which he was bearing, or carrying: (T, TA:) or you say, احملهُ الحِيْلَ he helped him to bear, or carry, the load, or burden: and ↓ حَمَلَهُ, i. e. فَعَلَ ذٰلِكَ بِهِ [he did that with him]. (M, O, K.) [See also 3.]

A2: أَحْمَلَتْ She (a woman, S, K, and a camel, S) yielded her milk without being pregnant. (S, K.) 5 تحمّل He took upon himself the bearing, or carrying, of loads, or burdens: this is the primary signification. (Har p. 48.) b2: [Hence, (assumed tropical:) He burdened himself with, or he became, or made himself, chargeable with, or he bore, or took upon himself, the burden of, a sin, or crime, or the like; as also ↓ احتمل:] you say احتمل إِثْمًا meaning تحملّهُ. (Jel in iv. 112 and xxxiii. 58.) And تحمّل غُرْمًا (assumed tropical:) He took, or imposed, upon himself a debt, or fine. (MA.) b3: [And hence, likewise, several other significations:] see 2, in two places: b4: and 8: b5: and 1, in six places. b6: Also He bound the load, or burden, [or the loads, or burdens, on the saddle, or saddles, or on the beast, or beasts;] (Har p. 48;) and ↓ احتيل signifies [the same, or] he put, or placed, the load, or burden, [or the loads, or burdens,] on the saddle, [or saddles, or on the beast, or beasts.] (Har p. 556.) b7: [And hence,] تحمّلوا and ↓ احتملوا (assumed tropical:) They went away, departed, or journeyed. (S, TA.) 6 تحامل عَلَيْهِ [He bore, bore his weight, pressed, or pressed heavily, upon it, or him].

(Mgh in art. ركز.) And تَحَامَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ كَالعَاصِرِ [I pressed, or pressed heavily, upon it, like the squeezer of fruit &c.]. (Msb in art. همز.) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) He wronged him; or treated him wrongfully, or unjustly. (S, Mgh, and Har p. 80.) And it is asserted that one says, تحامل الزَّمَانُ عَنْ فُلَانٍ

[So too البَلَدُ الأَمِينُ and البَلَدُ الحَرَامُ &c.] بَلَدٌ مَيِّتٌ means A tract of land without herbage, or pasture: (Msb:) and بَلَدٌ alone, a [desert, a waterless desert, or such as is termed] مَفَازَةٍ. (TA voce تا; under which see an ex.) b2: بَلَدٌ also signifies Land which has not been dug, and upon which fire has not been kindled. (M, K.) b3: A [house, or dwelling, such as is termed] دار: (M, K:) of the dial. of ElYemen. (M.) Sb mentions the saying, هٰذِهِ الدَّارُ نِعْمَتِ البَلَدُ [This house, excellent, or most excel-lent, is the dwelling!]; in which البلد is made fem. because it is syn. with الدار. (M.) b4: A burial-ground: (M, K:) or, as some say, (M, but in the K “and,”) a grave, or sepulchre: (M, K:) pl. as above. (M.) b5: Dust, or earth; and so ↓ يَلْدَةٌ. (T, M, K.) b6: The place in which an ostrich lays its egg, in sand. (S, M, L, K.) and hence, بَيْضَةُ البَلَدِ The egg of the ostrich, which it abandons in the place where it lays it, in the sand, or in a desert: (M, L:) also called ↓ البَلَدِيَّةِ and ذَاتُ البَلَدِ. (M.) You say, فُلَانٌ بَيْضَةُ البَلَدِ [(tropical:) Such a one is like the egg of the ostrich, &c.], meaning such a one is unequalled, or unparalleled: said in dispraise and in praise: (M, * L:) allowed by A'Obeyd to be used in praise: and said by El-Bekree to be applied to him who is separated from his family and near relations. (TA.) [See also art. بيض.] You also say, هُوَ أَذَلُّ مِنْ بَيْضَةِ البَلَدِ (S, M, A) (tropical:) He is more object, or vile, than the egg of the ostrich, which it abandons (S, TA) in the desert, and to which it does not return. (TA.) [See again art. بيض.] Also هُوَ أَعَزَّ مِنْ بَيْضَةِ البَلَدِ (tropical:) [He is more highly esteemed than the egg of the ostrich, which it lays in the sand]; because the ostrich spreads its wings over it and sits upon it. (A in art. فرخ.) [See more in art. بيض.] b2: A trace, mark, or vestige, (T, S, M, K, [in the K mentioned in two places, but in the latter of these omitted in the CK,]) of a house, or dwelling: (TA:) and a mark remaining upon the body: (A'Obeyd, T:) pl. أَبْلَادٌ. (S, A'Obeyd, M, K.) b3: The origin, or an element, (عُنْصُر,) of a thing. (Th, M, K.) b4: See also the next paragraph, in three places: b5: and see بُلْدَةٌ.

بَلْدَةٌ: see بَلَدٌ, in three places. You say, إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ كَذَا فَهِىَ بَلْدَةٌ بَيْنِى وَ بَيْنِكَ (tropical:) If thou do not thus, it will be [a cause of] separation between me and thee; (M, * A, TA;) i. e., I will alienate thee from me so that a country, or region, shall separate us, each from the other. (A, TA.) b2: Also A desert, or waterless desert, in which one cannot find his way: and any extensive tract of land. (T, L.) [Hence,] لَقِيتُهُ بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمَتِ I found him, or met him, in a desert, or desolate, place, in which there was no one beside. (M.) [See also art. صمت.] b3: And [hence, app.,] البَلْدَةُ One of the Mansions of the Moon, (M, K,) [namely, the Twenty-first Mansion,] a patch of the sky, (K,) containing no stars, (M, K,) or containing only small stars, (T, * M,) between the نَعَائِم and سَعْد الذَّابِح: (M, K:) sometimes the moon declines from it, and takes as its mansion the قِلَادَة: it [app. القلادة, accord. to the K, but accord. to the TA البلدة,] consists of six stars resembling a bow, (K,) in the sign of Sagittarius (القَوْس): (T:) or البلدة is one of the Mansions of the Moon, consisting of six stars of Sagittarius (القوس), which the sun enters on the shortest day of the year: (S:) [see مَنَازِلُ القَمَر, in art. نزل: in the K it is also said that ↓ البَلَدُ is a Mansion of the Moon; but this appears to be a mistake, occasioned by the accidental omission of the word البَلْدَةُ; though البَلَدُ would seem to be an appropriate name for the mansion next after the نعائم:] IF says that البَلْدَةُ is a star, or an asterism, (نَجْمٌ,) said to be the بَلْدَة, i. e. breast, of the Lion; not meaning the mansion thus called in the sign of Sagittarius: El-Hareeree finds fault with him for using this expression, [the بلدة of the Lion,] but Ibn-Dhafr replies that it occurs in the language. (TA.) b4: بَلْدَةٌ also signifies The earth, or ground. (S.) b5: Also (S, M, L, TA, [in the K ↓ بَلَد, by the accidental omission of the word البَلْدَةُ,]) The pit between the two collar-bones, with the part around it: or the middle thereof, i. e., of that pit: (M, K:) or the third of the فَلَك (which are six in number) of that part of a horse's breast which is called the زَوُر: or the part called رَحَى الزَّوْرِ: (M:) or [so accord. to the M, but accord. to the K “and,”] the breast, syn. صَدْر, (S, M, A, K,) of a camel, (M, A,) or of that which has a foot like the camel's, and of a solid-hoofed animal, (M,) and of a man: (A:) and the part immediately beneath the two prominent portions of flesh of the breast of a horse, extending to the arms. (M, L.) Dhu-rRummeh says, أُنِيخَتْ فَأَلْقَتْ بَلْدَةً فَوْقَ بَلْدَةٍ

She (the camel) was made to lie down, and threw her breast upon [a tract of] ground. (S, M.) And you say, فُلَانٌ وَاسِعُ البَلْدَةِ Such a one is wide in the breast. (S.) b6: Also (tropical:) The palm of the hand. (M, A, TA. [In the K, by the accidental omission of the word البَلْدَةُ, this meaning is assigned to ↓ بَلَدٌ.]) You say, ضَرَبَ بَلْدَتَهُ عَلَى بَلْدَتِهِ (tropical:) He smote the palm of his hand upon his breast. (A.) A2: See also بُلْدَةٌ, in two places: A3: and see بَلَادَةٌ.

بَلِيدٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ أَبْلَدٌ (M, K) Stupid, dull, wanting in intelligence; (S, Msb;) inert; wanting in vigour; not penetrating, sharp, vigorous, or effective, in the performing of affairs: (T, M, K: *) [soft, weak, feeble; wanting in endurance, or patience:] contr. of جَلِيدٌ. (K.) b2: Also the former, A horse that lags behind those that outstrip in running: (T, TA:) and a camel (TA) not to be rendered brisk, lively, or sprightly, by being put in motion. (M, K, TA.) b3: See also مَبْلُودٌ.

بَلادَةٌ [an inf. n. (of بَلُدَ) used as a subst.] (S, M, A) and ↓ بُلْدَةٌ and ↓ بَلْدَةٌ (M, TA) Stupidity, dulness, want of intelligence, (S, A,) or of penetration, sharpness, vigour, or effectiveness, in the performing of affairs.

So in the words of a poet, describing a watering-trough or tank, وَ مُبْلَدٍ بَيْنَ مَوْمَاةٍ بِمَهْلَكَةٍ

formed by transposition from مُلْبِدَ, which [properly] means cleaving to the ground: (IAar, T, TA:) or it is مُبْلَد, (TA,) or مُبْلِد, (T,) which means abandoned, and worn, and no longer used, so that it threatens to fall to ruin. (T, TA.) مَبْلُودٌ Confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course: [a pass. part. n., but] it has no verb answering to it: (M, TA:) or idiotic; deficient, or wanting, in intellect; or bereft thereof: (Esh-Sheybánee, M, K:) or unable to proceed in, or prosecute, his journey, his means having failed him, or his camel that bore him stopping with him from fatigue or breaking down or perishing, or an event befalling him so that he cannot move: (As, M:) all of these significations refer to confusion or perplexity: (M, L:) or one whose modesty, or shame, or whose intellect, has quitted him; as also ↓ بَلِيدٌ.
