(TA.) غُبْرُونٌ: see what next precedes.

غُبَارٌ and ↓ غَبَرَةٌ signify the same, (S, L, K,) as also ↓ غُبْرَةٌ; (IAar, K:) i. e.

(TA.) In another trad., it is called غُبَيْرَآءُ السَّكَرِ; to distinguish it from a kind of غبيراء made of dates, or dried dates. (Mgh.) غُبَّرٌ and غُبَّرَاتٌ: see غُبْرٌ, passim.

غَابِرٌ Remaining; lasting; continuing: (Az, S, IAmb, Mgh:) this is the sense in which it is used by the Arabs: (Az:) or it is the meaning most commonly obtaining among them: (IAmb:) tarrying; staying; waiting: pl. غُبَّرٌ: (K:) and the pl. of غَابِرَةٌ is غَوَابِرُ.

(S.) You say, أَنْتَ غَابِرٌ غَدًاوَذِكْرُكَ غَابِرٌ أَبَدًا [Thou passest away to-morrow, but thy fame remaineth for ever]. (TA.) A3: [Future time. See an ex. in the first of the verses cited voce حَيْثُ. The meaning of “ remaining ” seems equally appropriate in that verse: but غابر is often used by grammarians in the last of the senses expl. above.]

(El-Ahmar, TA.) And تَرَكَهُ الظَّهْرِ ↓ عَلَى غُبَيْرَآءِ (assumed tropical:) He left him in the possession of nothing: (M, TA:) accord. to Zeyd Ibn-Kethweh, it is said by one who has contended in an altercation with another and overcome him so as to become master of all that was in his hands: in all the copies of the K, [probably in consequence of an omission by an early transcriber,] it is expl. as meaning he returned disappointed, or unsuccessful; and so تركه على غَبْرَآءِ الظهر. (TA.) b6: بَنُو الغَبْرَآءِ (assumed tropical:) The poor, needy, or indigent; (S, IB, K, TA;) [to which is strangely added in one of my copies of the S and the guests;] so called because of their cleaving to the dust: (IB, TA:) and غَبْرَآءُ النَّاسِ likewise means the poor of mankind: or, as some say, the former means strangers from their homes: (TA:) or strangers, (K,) or persons, (TA,) who assemble together for [the drinking of] beverage, or wine, without mutual acquaintance: (K, TA:) or persons who contribute equally to the expenses which they have to incur in journeys: all of these meanings have been assigned to it in explaining a verse of Tarafeh: [see EM p. 85:] and it is also expl. in the A as meaning persons of whom one knows not to what family, or tribe, they belong: (TA:) and [it is said that] اِبْنُ غَبْرَآءَ signifies the thief, or robber.

رَطْبَة and قَتّ, with which horses are foddered when they are prepared, by being reduced to scanty food, for racing or for a military expedition. (TA.) غَمِيرَةٌ: see what next precedes.

غَامِرٌ Much, or abundant: applied in this sense to property. (Ham p. 593.) [See also غَمْرٌ.]

A2: [In a state of immersion; immerged. (See أَتَانٌ; and see also a verse cited voce أَنْ, p. 106, first col.)] b2: And [hence, perhaps,] غَامِرَةٌ signifies Palm-trees (نَخْلٌ) not requiring irrigation: (AHn, K:) but Az did not find this to be known. (TA.) [See also مُغْتَمِرٌ.] b3: Applied to land, (S, Msb, TA,) and to a house, (TA,) [but written with ة when أَرْضٌ is mentioned, or دَارٌ,] it signifies the Contr. of عَامِرٌ; (S, TA;) and thus, (TA,) waste; desolate; in a state the contrary of flourishing; in a state of ruin; syn. خَرَابٌ: (Msb, K, TA:) [land to which this term is applied is thus called] because overflowed by water, so that it cannot be sown; or because it is covered with sand or dust; or because water generally exudes from it, so that it produces only reeds and the بَرْدِىّ [i. e. papyrus or other rushes]: by غَامِرٌ is meant ذُو غَمْرٍ; like as one says هَمٌّ نَاصِبٌ, meaning ذُو نَصَبٍ: (TA:) or any land that is not tilled (لَمْ يُسْتَخْرَجْ) so as to be fit for sowing (K, TA) and planting: (TA:) or land that is unsown, but capable of being sown: so called because the water reaches it and comes over it: of the measure فَاعِلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ; (S, Msb;) like the epithets in سِرٌّ كَاتِمٌ and مَآءٌ دَافِقٌ; and made of the measure فال only to correspond to عَامِرٌ as its opposite: (S, TA:) waste land which water does not reach is not called غَامِرٌ; (S;) but such is called قَفْرٌ. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., [which shows that the last two explanations given above are correct,] that 'Omar imposed a tax of a دِرْهَم and a قَفِيز upon every جَرِيب [of land], both عَامِر and غَامِر: and this he did in order that the people might not be remiss in sowing. (Az, TA.) أَغْمَرُ [More, or most, abundant, copious, or deep: applied to water. b2: ] More, or most surpassing, or excelling: so in the saying, هُوَ أَغْمَرُهُمْ بِطُولِ قَوَامِهِ He is the most surpassing of them by the tallness of his stature. (TA.) مُغَمَّرٌ A garment, or piece of cloth, dyed with [غُمْرَة, or] saffron. (M, TA.) b2: مُغْمَّرَةٌ and ↓ مُتَغَمِّرَةٌ and ↓ مُغْتَمِرَةٌ A girl having her face smeared with غُمْرَة. (TA.) A2: See also غُمْرٌ.

مُغَمِّرٌ: see مُغَامِرٌ.

مَغْموُرٌ [Overflowed, or covered, and concealed, by water, &c. b2: ] Rained upon. (TA.) b3: (assumed tropical:) Overcome, subdued, or oppressed. (TA.) b4: (assumed tropical:) An obscure man; of no reputation: (K, TA:) as though others surpassed him. (TA.) You say also, فُلَانٌ مغْمُورُ النَّٰسَبِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is of obscure race. (TA.) مُغَامِرٌ (assumed tropical:) One who plunges, or rushes without consideration, into places of peril: (S:) one who throws himself into difficulties, troubles, or distresses; as also ↓ مُغَمِّرٌ: (K:) or one who enters into difficulties, troubles, or distresses, and makes another, or others, to do so; like مُغَامِسٌ. (Ham p. 338.) Applied to a courageous man as meaning (assumed tropical:) One who incurs the rigours, or pangs, of death. (TA.) And (assumed tropical:) One who contends in an altercation, or a dispute: or who enters into the main part [or the thick or thickest] of an altercation or a dispute: and some say that it is from الغِمْرُ, and means regarding, and regarded, with rancour, malevolence, malice, or spite. (TA.) مُغْتَمِرٌ Palm-trees (نَخْلٌ) imbibing water from a copious source. (AHn, K.) [See also غَامِرَةٌ, voce غَامِرٌ.] b2: And (assumed tropical:) A drunken man: (Sgh, K, TA:) as though intoxication had drowned his reason. (TA.) A2: See also مُغَمَّرٌ.

غَيْرٌ signifies i. q. سِوًى [Other]: and the pl. is أَغْيَارٌ: (S:) [but غَيْر itself often has a pl. meaning, as will be seen in what follows:] or [accord. to general usage, as will be seen below,] غَيْرُ signifies i. q. سِوَى [other than; exclusively of; or not, as used before a substantive or an adjective]. (Msb, K: in the CK [erroneously] سِوًى.) It is used to qualify a subst.; [governing (as a prefixed noun) the noun that follows it in the gen. case;] and when so used, it is put in the same case as the noun preceding it. (S.) It qualifies an indeterminate noun: (Mughnee, Msb:) you say جَآءَنِى رَجُلٌ غَيْرُكَ [A man, other than, or not, thou, came to me]: (Msb:) and نَعْمَلْ صَالِحًا غَيْرَ الَّذِى كُنَّا نَعْمَلُ [We will in that case do good, other than, or not, what we used to do: (Kur xxxv. 34:)]: (Mughnee:) and مِنْ مَآءٍ غَيْرِ آسِنٍ

[Of water other than, or not, altered in taste and colour]. (Kur xlvii. 16.) It is a noun necessarily prefixed, as to the sense, to a noun which it governs in the gen. case: but sometimes it is without the latter, when the meaning is understood and it is preceded by لَيْسَ, (Mughnee, K,) or by لَا: (K:) [in which case it signifies Any other person or thing; any person or thing beside, or else:] you say قَبَضْتُ عَشَرَةً لَيْسَ غَيْرُهَا [I received ten; not other than they was received by me; i. e., not any other thing; or not anything beside, or else]; (Mughnee, K;) the enunciative, مَقْبُوضًا, being suppressed: (Mughnee:) and ليس غَيْرَهَا, (Mughnee, K;) the noun [of ليس] being understood; i. e., لَيْسَ المَقْبُوضُ غَيْرَهَا: (Mughnee:) and ليس غَيْرَ; in which the affixed noun [ for المضاف, in the K, I read المضاف اليه, as in the Mughnee,] is suppressed, and the noun [of ليس] is also understood: (Mughnee, K:) and ليس غَيْرُ; (Mughnee, K;) in which, accord. to Mbr, and the later authors, غير is indecl., being likened to قَبْلُ and بَعْدُ, so that it may be either the noun or the enunciative [of ليس] or, accord. to Akh, it is decl., because it is not a noun of time like قَبْلُ and بَعْدُ, nor of place like فَوْقُ and تَحْتُ, but like كُلٌّ and بَعْضٌ, so that it is the noun [of ليس], and the enunciative is suppressed; (Mughnee;) or it may be either indecl. or decl., (Mughnee, K,) accord. to Ibn-Kharoof: (Mughnee:) and ليس غَيْرًا, and ليس غَيْرٌ; (Mughnee, K;) in both which cases it is decl., as though the affixed noun were mentioned: (Mughnee:) and لَا غَيْرُ; for the saying, [which we find in the Mughnee,] app. taken from a statement of Seer, that this is incorrect, is not good, since it occurs in the following verse, cited by Ibn-Málik; جَوَابًا بِهِ تَنْجُو اعْتَمِدْ فَوَرَبِّنَا لَعَنْ عَمَلٍ أَسْلَفْتَ لَا غَيْرُ تُسْأَلُ [Aim thou at having an answer by which thou mayest be safe; for, by our Lord, respecting an action which thou shalt have done before, not any other thing, or not anything beside or else, thou wilt be asked]. (K.) b2: It does not become determinate by its being prefixed to another noun, because it is very vague: but it is also applied as an epithet to a determinate noun which is near to being indeterminate; as in صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ [The way of those upon whom Thou hast conferred favour; the other than, or those who are not, the objects of anger; (Kur i. 6 and 7;)] because the noun rendered determinate by the art. ال denoting a genus is near to being indeterminate, and because when غير occurs between two contraries its vagueness becomes weakened, (Mughnee, K, *) or altogether departs: (K:) or it is here applied as an epithet to a determinate noun because it resembles a determinate noun in its being prefixed to such a noun: (Msb:) Az says that غير is here in the gen. case because it is an epithet to الذين; and that it may be an epithet to [what is technically termed in this instance] a determinate noun [as having the article ال prefixed to it] because الذين has not [in itself] a direct meaning (لِأَنَّ الَّذِينَ غَيْرُ مَصْمُودٍ صَمْدُهُ), [it being merely a conjunct noun, the meaning of which is determined by what follows it,] notwithstanding it has the art. ال prefixed to it: Abu-l-'Abbás says that Fr holds الذين to have the office of an indeterminate noun; and غير to be an epithet of it; not of any other noun; but that غير, accord. to some, may be an epithet relating to the nouns implied in انعمت عليهم, these not having a direct meaning: Akh says that غير [with what follows] is a substitute [for الذين with what follows], as though the meaning were صِرَاطَ غَيْرِ المَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ [the way of those who are not the objects of anger]. (TA.) The reading غَيْرَ is also related, on the authority of Ibn-Ketheer, in the accus. case, as a denotative of state, [meaning they being not the objects of anger,] relating to the pronoun governed in the gen. case by the prep. [in عليهم]; or by أَعْنِى [I mean] understood; or as an exceptive, [accord. to a usage to be explained below,] if the favours be interpreted as conferred in common upon the two classes of persons. (Bd.) b3: As it resembles a determinate noun in its being prefixed to a determinate noun, [as المغضوب in the above-cited passage of the Kur,] some have presumed to prefix to it the article ال: but against this it may be urged, that its prefixion to a determinate noun is not to render the expression determinate, but for specification; and ال does not imply specification. (Msb.) b4: In the following verse of Hassán, أَتَانَا فَلَمْ نَعْدِلْ سِوَاهُ بِغَيْرِهِ نَبِىٌّ بَدَا فِى ظُلْمَةِ اللَّيْلِ هَادِيَا the meaning is, [A prophet came to us, who appeared in the darkness of night, a director in the right way,] and we did not weigh another than him with another than the other, i. e., with him. (Mughnee.) b5: [وَغَيْرُ ذٰلِكَ is a phrase of frequent occurrence, meaning Et cœtera.] b6: غَيْرُ is also used in the sense of لَيْسَ [He, or it, is not]; as in the phrase كَلَامُ اللّٰهِ غَيْرُ مَخْلُوقٍ [The word of God is not created], syn. لَيْسَ بِمَخْلُوقٍ. (Az, TA.) b7: It is also used in the sense of لَا [meaning Not, as used before a participle]; (S, K;) and then it is in the accus. case, as a denotative of state; (S;) as in the phrase فَمَنِ اضْطُرَّ غَيْرَ بَاغٍ, (S, K,) in the Kur [ii. 168, and other places], (S,) i. e., جَائِعًا لَا بَاغِيًا [But whosoever is necessitated, being hungry, not transgressing the due bounds]. (S, K.) b8: It is also used as an exceptive, (S, Mughnee,) in the sense of إِلَّا [Except; save; or but]; (Msb, K;) and then it is put in the same case in which the word following إِلَّا would be put in the same phrase, (S, Mughnee, Msb, K,) because it is originally a qualificative, and its use as an exceptive is adventitious: (S:) therefore you say جَآءَ القَوْمُ غَيْرَ زَيْدٍ [The people came, except Zeyd]; and مَا جَآءَنِى أَحَدٌ غَيْرَ زَيْدٍ and غَيْرُ زَيْدٍ [Not any one came to me, except Zeyd]: (Msb, K:) or its case depends upon the governing words, so that you say مَا قَامَ غَيْرُ زَيْدٍ

[No one stood, except Zeyd], and مَا رَأَيْتُ غَيْرَ زَيْدٍ

[I saw not any, except Zeyd]: (Msb:) but Fr says that some of the Benoo-Asad and Kudá'ah put غير in the accus. case, when used in the sense of إِلَّا, whether the phrase before it be complete or incomplete; saying مَا جَآءَنِى غَيْرَكَ [Not any one came to me, except thou], and ما جاءنى أَحَدٌ غَيْرَكَ [Not any one came to me, except thou]: (S, Msb:) and AA says that when غير has the place of إِلَّا, it is put in the accus. case. (Msb.) In the saying لَا إِلٰهَ غَيْرُ اللّٰهِ [There is no deity other than God], غير is in the nom. case because it is the enunciative of لا; but it may be put in the accus. case, as meaning إِلَّا. (Msb.) When, as an exceptive, it is prefixed to an indecl. word [and not preceded by a prep.], it may be itself indecl., with fet-h for its termination; as in the following verse; لَمْ يَمْنَعِ الشُّرْبَ مِنْهَا غَيْرَ أَنْ نَطَقَتْ حَمَامَةٌ فِى غُصُونٍ ذَاتِ أَوْقَالِ [Nought prevented the drinking from it, except that a pigeon cooed, upon branches having اوقال, which app. means stumps of cut shoots]. (Mughnee, K.) [See also an ex. (of غَيْرَ أَنَّ) in a verse cited voce بَيْدَ.] b9: [It is often used with a prep.; as in بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ Without reckoning; (Kur ii. 208, &c.;) and مِنْ غَيْرِ سُوْءٍ Without leprosy. (Kur xx. 23, &c.)]

A2: غَيْرٌ (JK, K) and (JK) ↓ غِيَرٌ (JK, S) signifying The act of altering, or changing, i. q. تَغْيِيرٌ, (JK,) are substs. from غَيَّرَهُ; (S with respect to the latter, and K with respect to the former;) not inf. ns., as having no unaugmented verb. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] الدَّهْرِ ↓ غِيَرُ, the former of these two words being of the same measure as عِنَب, The accidents, or casualties, of time or fortune, which alter, or change, things: (K:) [or alteration, or change, of time or of fortune; for] IAmb says, with respect to the saying لَا أَرَانِى اللّٰهُ بِكَ غِيَرًا [May God not show me, in thee, alteration of state], that غِيَرٌ is from تَغَيُّرُ الحَالِ, a subst. like قِطَعٌ [as meaning “ a portion of the night ”]; or that it may be a pl., of which the sing. is ↓ غِيْرَةٌ. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] بَنَاتُ غَيْرٍ [or ↓ غِيَرٍ, as in Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 309,] (tropical:) Lying: or a lie, or falsehood: syn. كَذِبٌ: (TS, K:) or [rather] lies. (JK, A.)

A2: See also غَيْرٌ, last sentence but two. b2: Also A bloodwit; (AA, S, K;) syn. دِيَةٌ: (AA, S: *) and غِوَرٌ is a dial. var. thereof: (TA in art. غور:) pl. ↓ غِيَرٌ: (AA, S, K:) or, as some say, this is a sing., (S, TA,) of the masc. gender; TA;) and the pl. is أَغْيَارٌ: (S, TA:) and the دِيَة is said to be termed غِيَرٌ because it is a substitute for retaliation. (TA.) غَيْرَانُ; fem. غَيْرَى: see غَيُورٌ, in two places.

غِيَارٌ The cognizance, or badge, of the free nonmuslim subjects of a Muslim government; such as the زُنَّار [or waist-belt] (Mgh, K) to the Magians, (Mgh,) and the like: (Mgh, K:) or, as some say, the cognizance, or badge, of the Jews.
