ميز

1 مَازَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. مَيْزٌ; (S, A, Msb, K;) and ↓ ميّزهُ (S, K,) inf. n. تَمْيِيزٌ; (S;) or the latter has an intensive signification; (Msb;) He put it, or set it, apart, away, or aside; removed it; or separated it; (S, A, Msb, K;) from another thing, or other things; (Msb;) as also ↓ امازهُ: (K:) [or the second, rather, he did so much, or greatly, or widely; like زَيَّلَهُ.] Yousay, مَازَهُ مِنْهُ, and ↓ ميّزهُ. (A.) Ex. مَازَ الأَذَى مِنَ الطَّرِّيق He put aside, or removed, what was hurtful from the road. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [viii. 38,] لِيَمِيزَ اللّٰهُ الخَبِيثَ مِنَ الطَّيِّبِ [That God may separate, or sever, the evil from the good]. (Msb.) [It seems also, from what is said in the A, that مَايَزْتُ بَيْنَهُمَا signifies I separated them two: besides having another signification, which see below.] Yousay also مَازَ الشَّىْءَ, (aor. and inf. n. as above, TA,) meaning, He separated one part of the thing from another; فَصَلَ بَعْضَهُ مِنْ بَعْضٍ, (M, TA,) or عَنْ بَعْضٍ: (as in a copy of the A:) expl. in the K as signifying فَضَّلَ بَعْضَهُ عَلَى بَعْضٍ [he judged, or made, part of the thing to excel, or to have excelled, another]; but the explanation in the M is the right. (TA.) And الأَشْيَآءَ ↓ ميّز He separated the things after knowledge of them. (Msb.) b2: [Hence, He distinguished it, or discriminated it, or discerned it. And مَازَ بَيْنَ الأَشْيَآءِ, and بَيْنَهَا ↓ مَيَّزَ, He distinguished, or discriminated, or discerned, between the things. This is what is meant by its being said,] المَيْزُ also signifies التَّمْيِيزُ بَيْنَ الأَشْيَآءِ. (TA.) You say also, بَيْنَهُمَا ↓ مَايَزْتُ [I distinguished, or discriminated, or discerned, between them two]. (A.) From ميّز الاشيآء, meaning as explained above, is [also], app., derived the phrase سِنُّ التَّمْيِيزِ, used by the doctors of practical law, as signifying, [The age of discrimination;] the age at which one knows what things are beneficial to him and what are hurtful to him: or, accord. to some, التَّمْيِيز is a faculty in the brain whereby meanings are elicited. (Msb.) A2: مَازَ [is also intrans., and signifies] He (a man) removed from one place to another. (IAar, K.) See also 8.2 مَيَّزَ see مَازَهُ, throughout.3 مَاْيَزَ see مَازَهُ, in two places.4 أَمْيَزَ see مَازَهُ, first signification.5 تَمَيَّزَ see 8, throughout. b2: You say also, فُلَانٌ يَكَادُ يَتَمَيَّزُ مِنَ الغَيْظِ Such a one almost bursts asunder with wrath, or rage. (S, K. *) The like is said in the Kur, lxvii. 8, tropically, of hell. (A, TA.) 6 تَمَاْيَزَ see 8, throughout.7 إِنْمَيَزَ see 8, throughout.8 امتاز, and ↓ تميّز, (S, A, Msb, K,) and ↓ انماز. (S, A, K,) and ↓ إِمَّازَ, (Lh, TA,) [the last being a variation of that immediately preceding,] and ↓ استماز, (S, A, K,) It was, or became, put, or set, apart, away, or aside; or removed; or separated; (S, A, * Msb, * K;) from another thing, or other things: (Msb:) and the last, ↓ استماز, he went, or withdrew, aside, or to a distance, (K, TA,) عَنِ الشَّىْءِ from the thing. (TA.) All these forms are syn.; but in the phrase مِزْتُهُ فَلَمْ يَمَّزْ [as though signifying I put it, or set it, apart, &c., but it did not remain so] Lh allows the verbs to be only in these two forms: (TA:) [though ↓ انماز is used in other cases; for] you say انماز ↓ عَنْ مُصَلَّاهُ He shifted from his place of prayer; or quitted it for another. (TA.) [See also 1, last signification.] You say also, امتار القَوْمُ, meaning, تميّز ↓ بَعْضُهُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ [The people were, or became, put, or set, apart, &c., one from another]: (S, TA:) and, as also ↓ تميّزوا, they became on one side: or they became alone, or separate: and the former, they withdrew, in a company or troop, aside; as also ↓ استمازوا: (TA:) and [in like manner] ↓ تمايزوا they became separated: (A:) and they formed themselves into separate companies, or troops, and went away, one from another. (TA. [التَّمَايُزُ being there said to signify التَّحَزُّبُ وَالتَّنَافُرُ.]) b2: [امتاز, and the other forms mentioned above, in the first sentence of the paragraph, as syn. with it, also signify It was, or became, distinguished, or discriminated, or discerned: in which sense, ↓ تميّز is the most common. You say also, تميّز ↓ فُلَانٌ بِالْكَرَمِ Such a one was, or became, distinguished by generosity. And تَمَايَزَتِ ↓ الأَشْيَآءُ and ↓ تُمَيَّزَت The things were, or became, distinguished, or discriminated, one from another; or distinct.]10 إِسْتَمْيَزَ see 8, throughout.

Both phrases are often used as signifying thus by classical writers, and in the present day.] b14: نَسَبَ بِالْمَرْأَةِ, (S, K,) aor. ـِ (S,) and نَسُبَ, (L,) inf. n. نَسِيبٌ (S, K) and نَسَبٌ and مَنْسَبَةٌ, (K,) i. q. شَبَّبَ بِهَا; q. v.; (S, K;) He mentioned the woman in an amatory manner, in the beginning [or prelude] of a poem: (TA, voce شبّب:) he mentioned the woman in amatory language, in the beginning of a قَصِيدَة, and then turned to the object of praise: [for it is a general rule to commence a قصيدة in praise of a king, or hero, or the like, with نسيب; the transition from this is termed التَّخَلُّصُ: see also اِقْتَضَبَ:] (IKh:) he mentioned the woman in his poem, describing her as characterized by beauty and youth &c.: (Lb:) or describing her as characterized by good qualities, whether truly or falsely. (Z.) This phrase and نَسَبَ الرَّجُلَ both signify description; the latter signifying “ he described the man with relation to his father, or his city or country, or the like; ” and the former phrase, he described the woman as characterized by beauty and youth and love or affection &c. (IDrst.) نَسِيبٌ is also employed to signify the describing of the places where the objects of love have taken up their abode in the season of the رَبِيع and at other times, and the lover's longing to meet them and be united with them, and what else is comprised in the signification of the words تَشْبِيبٌ and غَزَلٌ.

Hence the proverb, القَرِيبُ مَنْ تَقَرَّبَ لَا مَنْ تَنَسَّبَ: (S, K:) i. e. He is [indeed] an ally who allies himself by affection and friendship: not he who asserts himself to be a kinsman. (TA.) 6 تناسبوا (tropical:) They were mutually, or reciprocally, related; resembled one another; were similar, conformable, analogous, correspondent, or suitable, one to another; befitted one another. (TA.) See also نِسْبَةٌ. b2: [And تناسب It was suitable in its parts, proportionate, symmetrical, or uniform.]8 إِنْتَسَبَ See 10 and 1. b2: انتسب إِلَى أَبِيهِ He asserted his relationship to his father, whether truly or falsely; (S;) [saying, I am the son of such a one: as was generally done by a champion when he sallied forth to challenge]. b3: انتسب إِلَيْهِ It (a voice) was attributed, or ascribed, to him. (TA, art. غنث.) 10 استنسب (K) and ↓ انتسب (TA) He mentioned his [i. e. his own] relationship, [lineage, or genealogy]. (K.) One says to a man, in asking him respecting his relationship, &c., إِسْتَنْسِبْ لَنَا أَىْ إِنْتَسِبْ لَنَا حَتَّى نَعْرِفَكَ [Mention thy relationship, or lineage, to us, that we may know thee]. (Az.) Q. Q. 1 نَيْسَبَ بَيْنَهُمَا, inf. n. نَيْسَبَةٌ, He went to and fro between them two with malicious and mischievous misrepresentations, calumnies, or slanders, &c. (L, K.) نَسْبٌ: see نَسَبٌ.

(Msb.) The first, by poetical license, is contracted into ↓ نَسْبٌ. (T.) [You say,] بَيْنَهُمَا نَسَبٌ Between them is relationship; said whether they may lawfully marry one another, or not. (Msb.) See نَسِيبٌ.

نِسْبَةٌ (tropical:) Relation; proportion; comparison; with respect to quantity, or measure, and the like.

A more general name of this kind should precede a more particular one: thus you say القُرَشِىُّ الهَاشِمِىُّ: and it is better that a name of relation to a tribe should precede one of relation to a town or the like: thus you say القُرَشِىُّ المَكِّىُّ. It is said that the Arabs originally called themselves by such names only in relation to tribes; and that, when they took up their abodes in cultivated lands and in cities, they borrowed names of relation to towns and the like from the Persians and Copts.

[See also صِهْرٌ.] b3: نَسِيبٌ and ↓ مَنْسُوبٌ A man of rank, or quality, or the like, and of family, or lineage. (TA.) b4: ↓ نَسِيبٌ نَاسبٌ [An elegant amatory mentioning of a woman, or of women, in the beginning of a poem] is a phrase like شَعْرٌ شَاعِرٌ. (K.) See أَنْسَبُ.

نَسَّابٌ (K) and ↓ نَسَّابَةٌ (S, K.) Skilful in genealogy: (K:) [or rather, the former signifies very skilful in genealogies; or a great genealogist:] the latter, possessing the utmost knowledge in genealogies; or a most skilful genealogist: [this being of a doubly intensive form;] the ة being annexed to render the epithet one of excessive praise: (S:) pl. of the former نَسَّابُونَ, and of the latter نَسَّابَاتٌ: (TA:) you say عِنْدِى ثَلَاثَةُ نسّاباتٍ, meaning ثلاثة رِجَالٍ نسّاباتٍ. (S.) نَسَّابَةٌ: see نَسَّابٌ.

نَاسِبٌ: see نَسِيبٌ.

نَيْسَبٌ A straight, or direct, and conspicuous, or open, road, or way: (K:) or narrow road, or way: (TA:) as also ↓ نَيْسَبَانٌ: (K:) some say نَيْسَمٌ, which is a dial. form: (TA:) or نيسب signifies the traces of a road, or way. (K.) b2: Also نَيْسَبٌ Ants that appear like a road; (S;) ants following one another uninterruptedly. (K.) Dukeyn Ibn-Rejà says, عَيْنًا تَرَى النَّاسَ إِلَيْهَا نَيْسَبَا [A source to which thou seest the people (repairing like) ants proceeding in uninterrupted succession]. (S.) b3: Also, the track of ants, (ISd, K,) and of a serpent, and of wild asses going to their watering-places. (TA.) نَيْسَبَانٌ: see نَيْسَبٌ.

هٰذَا الشِّعْرُ أَنْسَبُ This poetry is more, or most. elegant in what is termed نَسِيب. see 2: (K:) as though they had said نَسِيبٌ نَاسِبٌ, like شِعْرٌ شَاعِرٌ, to give intensiveness to the signification, and thence formed the word أَنْسَبُ. (TA.) خَطٌّ مَنْسُوبٌ [A] regular [hand-writing]: syn. ذُو قَاعِدَةٍ: (TA:) [properly, named in relation to its author &c.] b2: شِعْرٌ مَنْسُوبٌ Poetry, or a poem, in which is نَسِيب, [or an amatory mention of a woman, or women, in its beginning]: pl. مَنَاسِيبُ.

نيب

1 نَابَهُ, aor. ـِ He hit him on his ناب, i. e., his canine tooth. (S, K.) 2 نيّب السَّهْمَ He bit the wood of the arrow, to know whether it were strong or weak, and made an impression upon it with his canine tooth. (S, K.) b2: نيّب فِيهِ He (a beast of prey) made an impression upon him with his canine tooth: he fixed his canine teeth in him. (TA) b3: نيّبت She (a camel) became extremely old: (Lh, S, K:) became what is termed a ناب. (A.) b4: نيّب and ↓ تنيّب (assumed tropical:) It (a plant) put forth its root. (K.) Also signifying the same with reference to white, or hoary hair. The root is thought by ISd to be thus likened to a canine tooth. (TA.) b5: ظَفَّر فُلَانٌ فِى كَذَا وَنَيَّبَ (tropical:) Such a one clung to, caught to, or took fast hold upon, such a thing: [lit., stuck his nails and dog-teeth into it]. (A.) See also ظَفَّرَ.5 تَنَيَّبَ see 2.

نَابٌ [originally نَيَبٌ, The canine tooth, or dog-tooth; or eye-tooth; the tusk, or tush; or the fang; of certain animals:] one of the teeth; (S;) the tooth that is [next] behind the رَبَاعِيَة, [or next but one to the central pair of incisors:] (M, K.) [In this sense, the word is masc.:] the tooth thus called is mase., when thus called: [though if you call it سِنٌّ (???)] but ناب when fem. signifies “ an old she-camel ” (Msb:) or, accord. to the M and K, it is fem. only in each of the above senses without distinction. (TA.) Sb says, that the Arabs observed the pronunciation termed imáleh (إِمَالَة) in the case of ناب in the nom. [as well as in the acc. and gen., in which latter case this pronunciation is agreeable with analogy on account of the final kesreh,] likening its (tropical:) to that in رَمَى, [in which it is expressed in writing by ى,] because it is changed from ى: but this is extr. That is, this pronunciation of (tropical:) changed from ى or و is only observed [regularly] when the said ا is a final radical letter; and specially in verbs: the instances of this kind that occur in nouns are extr.; and more (???) are these in which the ا changed from ى is a medial radical letter. (TA.) [But the restriction to the case of verbs is inconsistent with what is said by Ibn-Málik and other high authorities: and so, too, is the restriction to the case of a final radical letter.] Pl. أَنْيُبٌ (Lh, K) and أَنْيَابٌ [both pls. of pauc.: but the latter is used as a pl. of mult.:] and نُيُوبٌ; (S, K;) the latter contr. to analogy, (S,) because [نَابٌ is originally نَيَبٌ, and] a word of the measure فَعَلٌ does not [regularly] assume the measure فَعُولٌ in the pl.; (TA;) to which should be added نِيُوبٌ, a dial. var., as in the case of every pl. of the measure فُعُولٌ of which the medial radical letter is ى: (M, F:) and pl. pl. أَنَايِيبُ. (K, TA.) Ibn-Seenà says that no animal has both a ناب and a horn. (Msb.) b2: نَابٌ An aged she-camel: (S, K:) not applied to a male camel: (S;) so called because of the length of her lush; (S;) by synedoche; the whole being called by the name of a part: (TA:) as also ↓ نَيُوبٌ; (K;) accord. to some copies of the K, نَيَّوبٌ; but this is a mistake: (TA:) pl. of the former أَنْيَابٌ and نُيُوبٌ (K) and نِيبٌ: (S, K:) or these are pls. of both the former of sing. (K. accord. to some copies; and TA.) Sb is of opinion that نِيبٌ is pl. of ناب, and says that the Arabs have made it of the measure فُعْلٌ [as it is said to be in the S, for it is originally نُيْبٌ like as they have the pl. of دَارٌ, disliking the sound of نُيُوبٌ, because the ى is with dammeh, and preceded by dammeh, and followed by و. It is also said to be pl. of ↓ نَيُوبٌ; as it is related, on the authority of Yoo, that certain of the Arabs say صِيدٌ and بِيضٌ, as pls. of صَيُودٌ and بَيُوضٌ, agreeably with the dial. of those who say رُسْلٌ [instead of رُسُلٌ]; namely, the tribe of Temeem but their not saying نُيُبٌ, like as they say صُيُدٌ and بُيُضٌ, is an argument in favour of the opinion of Sb. b3: لَا أَفْعَلُ ذٰلِكَ مَا حَنَّتِ النِّيبُ [I will not do that as long as aged she-camels yearn towards their young ones i. e., I will never do it]. A proverb. (S.) b4: The dim. of نَابٌ is نُيَيْبٌ, without ة, because ناب, as applied to an aged she-camel, is like an epithet: (S:) or rather this formation of the dim. without ناب is a dev. from constant rule. (MF.) Sh says, that some of the Arabs make the dim. of ناب to be ثُوَيْبٌ, because many an ا such as that in ناب is changed from و: [or rather, this is generally the case:] but this, says Ibn-Es-Sarráj is an error on his part [who does (???) (S.) This apparently means, that Ibn-EsSarráj accuses Sh of an error; but such is not the case: for Sb himself says “ but this is an error on their part; ” i. e., on the part of the Arabs who say نويب for نييب (IB.) b5: نَابُ قَوْمٍ (tropical:) The lord, master, or chief, of a people: (S, K:) pl. أَنْيَابٌ. (TA.) b6: عَضَّتْهُ أَنْيَابُ الدَّهْرِ, and نُيُوبُهُ, [(tropical:) The dog-teeth of fortune bit him]. (A.) b7: انياب are likewise met. assigned to evil, or mischief. (TA.) نَيُوبٌ: see نَاب.

نُيَّبٌ [as though pl. of نَائِبٌ or نَائِبَةٌ] an epithet added to نُيُوبٌ as signifying “ canine teeth. ” to render the signification intensive, or energetic. (TA.) أَنْيَبُ Having a large, or thick, canine tooth, (K,) that does not bite a thing without breaking it. (Th.)

نبت

1 نَبَتَ, (S, M, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. نَبْتٌ and نَبَاتٌ; [which two ns. see mentioned as substs.;] and ↓ تنبّت; (M;) and ↓ انبت; (Fr, S, K;) [respecting which last see below;] It (a thing, M, or a leguminous [or other] plant, S, K,) grew; grew forth; sprouted; vegetated; or germinated. (S, M, K.) As disallows ↓ انبت in this sense; but AO allows it, alleging the words of Zuheyr, البَقْلُ ↓ حَتَّى إِذَا أَنْبَتَ [Until, when the leguminous plants grew]. نَبَتَ and ↓ أَنْبَتَ are said to be like مَطَرَتِ السَّمآءُ and أَمْطَرَت. In the Kur, xxiii. 20, Ibn-Ketheer, Aboo-'Amr and El-Hadremee read تُنْبِتُ: others, تَنْبُتُ: but ISd says, that, accord. to the former reading, some hold ب, which follows تُنْبِتُ, to be redundant; and others hold that مَا تُنْبُتُ is understood after تُنْبِتُ. Fr holds them to be syn. (TA.) b2: نَبَتَ عَلَىَ حَالَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ He, or it, grew in a good manner, condition, or state. (L.) b3: نَبَتَ, inf. n. نُبُوتٌ, (tropical:) It (a girl's breast) became swelling, prominent, or protuberant.

(S, K.) 2 نبّت, inf. n. تَنْبِيتٌ, (tropical:) He fed or nourished, or reared or brought up, a child: (S, K:) he nourished a girl, and nursed her up well, hoping that she might profit excellently. (TA.) b2: نَبِّتْ

أَجَلَكَ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْكَ [(tropical:) Plant the term of thy life before (lit. between) thine eyes; i. e., keep it ever before thee]. (S.) b3: نبّت, inf. n. تَنْبِيتٌ, He planted a tree. (M, S, K.) b4: He sowed seed, (M,) or grain. (A.) 4 انبتهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. إِنْبَاتٌ [for which نَبَاتٌ occurs, as shown below], (TA,) He (God) caused it, or made it, (a plant) to grow, vegetate, or germinate. (S, K.) b2: انبت, inf. n. إِنْبَاْتٌ; for which inf. n. نَبَاتٌ occurs in the Kur, iii. 32; and lxxi. 16; (tropical:) He (God) caused a child to grow. (TA.) b3: See 1. b4: انبت His (a boy's) hair of the pubes grew forth; (S, K;) he having nearly attained the age of puberty. (TA.) He (a boy) became hairy: and in like manner a girl. (Msb.) 5 تَنَبَّتَ see 1.10 استنبتهُ [He endeavoured to make it grow, or vegetate, or germinate]. (TA, art. بلس.) استنبتهُ بالبَذْرِ [He grew it, or raised it, by means of seed], and بِالنَّوَى [by means of date-stones], and بالغَرْسِ [by means of planting]. (Mgh, art. حرث.) نَبْتٌ and ↓ نَبَاتٌ [properly coll. gen. ns.] are syn., (S, K,) [signifying A plant, a herb: and plants, herbs, or herbage:] whatever God causes to grow, vegetate, or germinate, in the earth: (Lth:) the latter is an inf. n. used as a subst.: (Lth:) or it is a subst. which is used in the place of an inf. n. of أَنْبَتَ: (Fr:) n. un. of the former نَبْتَةٌ; (AHn;) [and of the latter نَبَاتَةٌ of which the pl. نَبَاتَاتٌ is mentioned in the K in this art., and frequently occurs in other works]. b2: أَهْلُ بَيْتٍ وَأَهْلُ نَبْتٍ A people of the highest rank, or nobility, and a people whose property has grown to the most flourishing state by means of their own exertions. (L, from a trad.) نِبْتَةٌ The manner, form, state, or condition, in which a thing grows, or germinates. (L.) b2: إِنَّهُ لَحَسَنُ النِّبْتَةِ Verily he, or it, is of a goodly manner, &c., of growth.

(MF.) خَبِيتٌ نَبِيتٌ Vile, and contemptible, or despicable: (Lh, K:) said of a man, and of a thing. (TA.) In some copies of the K, and in the L, instead of حَقِيرٌ, we read فَقِيرٌ, [accord. to which, the meaning is vile, and poor]. (TA.) نَبِيتَةٌ sing. of نَبَائِتُ, which latter signifies the ridges that are raised along the edges of rivulets such as are called فُلْجَان (in the CK, فَلْجَان) to retain the water: النبائت being expl. by أَعْضَادُ الفُلْجَانِ: so in the L, &c.: in several copies of the K we read, in the place of اعضاد, اغصان: but this is a mistake. (TA.) نَابِتٌ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ What is fresh, or new, of anything, when it is growing forth small. (TA.) نَبَتَتْ لَهُمْ نَابِتَةٌ There grew up unto them young offspring, (S, K,) that became conjoined to the old, and increased their number. (TA.) Dim.

نُوَيْبِتَةٌ. (L.) b2: إِنَّ بَنِى فُلَانٍ لَنَابِتَةُ شَرٍّ [Verily the sons of such a one are an evil offspring]. (S.) b3: مَا أَحْسَنَ نَابِتَةَ بَنِى فُلَانٍ How good is the manner, condition, or state, in which grow (مَا تَنْبُتُ عَلَيْهِ, see 1,) the camels &c., (أَمْوَال) and children of the sons of such a one! b4: نَابِتَةٌ (TA) and نَوَابِتُ [pl. of the former] (S, K) Inexperienced young men. (S, K.) You say, هٰذَا قَوْلُ النَّابِتَةِ, and النَّوَابِتِ, This is the saying of inexperienced young men.

مَنْبِتٌ (tropical:) Origin, or race, [from which a man springs;] syn. أَصْلٌ. (L.) So in the phrase إِنَّهُ لَفِى

مَنْبِتِ صِدْقٍ (tropical:) Verily he belongs to an excellent race; is of an excellent origin]: and so in the phrase فِى أَكْرَمِ المَنَابِتِ [of the most generous of origins, or races.] (TA.) b2: مَنْبِتٌ A place in which plants, or herbs, grow: (S, K:) dev. from the constant course of speech: analogically it should be ↓ مَنْبَتٌ: (K:) as the aor. of the verb from which it is derived is not يَنْبِتُ, with kesreh: but there are other examples like it; as مَسجِدٌ and مَطْلِعٌ &c.: ↓ مَنْبَتٌ, however, also sometimes occurs. (TA.) [Pl. مَنَابِتُ.]

أَرْضٌ مِنْبَاتٌ [Land abounding with plants, or herbage]. (K, voce رَحَبَةٌ, &c.) مَنْبُوتٌ (contr. to analogy, S, [for مُنْبَتٌ,]) A plant caused to grow, or germinate. (S, K.) مُتَنَبِّتٌ Firmly rooted; syn. مُتَأَصِّلٌ. (TA.) تَنْبِيتٌ and ↓ تِنْبِيتٌ, (K,) the latter so written, not as being so originally, but for the sake of agreement in sound [with respect to the first and second vowels], (AHei,) a subst., signifying What grows or germinates, of slender (i. e. small, TA,) trees, [or shrubs,] and large: (K:) ex., بَيْدَآءُ لَمْ يَنْبُتْ بِهَا تَنْبِيتُ [A desert in which there grew not aught of shrubs or of large trees]: (TA:) young shoots of palmtrees: (IKtt:) the prickles and branches that are cut off from a palm-tree, to lighten it.

(L [See غَافٌ and فُرْفُورٌ].)

نكت

1 نَكَتَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. نَكْتٌ, (or نَكَتَ الأَرْضَ بِقَضِيبٍ, [&c.,] TA.) He struck the ground with a stick, (S, M, K,) or with his finger, (M,) so that it made a mark, or marks, upon it, (S, K,) with its extremity; an action of one reflecting, or meditating, and anxious.

(As, S, K. *) b8: نُكِتَ It (a cooked bone, containing marrow,) was struck with the edge of a cake of bread, or with some other thing, to cause the marrow to fall out. (TA.) نُكِتَ العَظْمُ The marrow to the bone was taken out, or extracted. (Aboo-'Ameythel.) Mentioned in art. بقت, q. v. (TA.) A2: نَكَتَ فِى كَلاَمِهِ and فِى قَوْلَهِ, [aor, ?? inf. n. نَكْتٌ? (in the TA, the verb is written without the syll points, but the form commonly known in the present day, and occurring in many late works, is ↓ نكّت, inf. n. نَنْكِيتٌ; (tropical:) He made use of nice, or subtile, sayings, ??

sions, such as are termed نُكَت, pl. of نُكْتَة)] (A.) b2: نَكَتُ فِى العِلْمِ بِمُوَافقَهِ فُلَانٍ أَوْ مُخَالَفَةِ فُلَانِ He alluded (أَشَارَ) (with respect to science, to the agreement of such a one, or the di??

(Msb.) b2: نُكْتَةٌ [A small spot, or mark,] resembling dirt upon a mirror: (K:) نُكْتَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ A small [black] mark, like a spot, or dot, resembling dirt upon a mirror or a sword or the like (L, from a trad.) b3: نُكْتَةٌ [A spot in the eye;] what resembles a وَقْرَة in the eye. (L.) b4: [↓ نَكْتٌ seems to be a quasi-pl. of نُكْتَةٌ, like as نَقْطٌ is said to be (by some persons in the present day) of نُقْطَةٌ, and to signify Any small spots, or specks, in a thing, differing therefrom in colour. Such I suppose to be meant by the words in the L, كلّ نَقْطٍ فى شىء خالف لونه نَكْتٌ.]

A2: نُكْتَةٌ (tropical:) A nice, subtile, subtilely excogitated, quaint, facetious, or witty, saying, expression, or allusion, (لَطِيفَة) that makes an impression upon the heart; from النَّكْتُ [the striking the ground with a stick &c., so as to make a mark, or marks, upon it with its extremity]: also, a question educed by reflection, [بِالتَّفَكُّرِ, as the passage here translated is given in the Kull, p. 362, but in the TA بالنقل, which is an evident mistake, as might be shown by many authorities,] which makes an impression upon the heart, on hearing or considering which one generally makes marks upon the ground with the finger or the like: (El-Fenáree's Expos. of the Telweeh:) a nice, or subtile, saying, expression, or allusion, that requires one to reflect, and [induces one] to make marks upon the ground with a stick or the like: (from a scholium quoted by De Sacy, Anthol. Gr. Ar., 303:) [a nice, subtile, abstruse, or mystical, point, or allusion: the point of a saying or sentence, especially one that is difficult to be understood: a conceit expressed in words difficult to be understood: a quaint conceit: a point of wit: a facetious saying or allusion: pl., generally, نُكَتٌ]. b2: جَاءَ بِنُكْتَهٍ (tropical:) [He uttered a nice, or subtile, saying, expression, or allusion, &c.]. (A.) نَكِيتٌ Spoken against; having his reputation wounded. (TA.) نَكَّاتٌ (and ↓ مُنَكِّتٌ TA) (tropical:) One who speaks much, or frequently, against others; who wounds the reputations of others, much, or frequently.

(TA.) نَاكِتٌ A distortion in a camel's elbow, so that it lacerates his side: (El-'Adebbes El-Kinánee, S, K:) or the cutting of a camel's side by his elbow: (L:) or [that fault in a camel] when his elbow makes a mark, or marks, upon his side: in this case you say, بِهِ ناكتٌ: but when it makes an incision, or incisions, in his side, you say بِهِ حَازٌّ: (IAar) or ناكت is similar to نَاحِزٌ, i. e. the elbow's striking, and making a mark, or marks, upon the edge of the callous lump beneath his breast; in the case of which you say به ناكت: (Lth:) and nearly the same is said in the A. (TA.) مَنْكُوتٌ A cooked bone, containing marrow, that is struck with the edge of a cake of bread, or with some other thing, to cause the marrow to fall out. (TA.) مُنَكِّتٌ: see نَكَّاتٌ. b2: رُطَبَةٌ مُنَكِّتَةٌ, A date beginning to ripen [and to become speckled].

(TA.)

نكح

1 نَكَحَ, (S, K, &c.,) aor. ـِ (Msb, K,) and نَكَحَ, (K,) the latter agreeable with analogy, but by some rejected, and the former contr. to analogy, but more common, and the form used in the Kur, (TA,) the only instance of an aor. of this form from a verb having ح for its last radical letter, except ينطح and يمنح and ينضح and ينبح and يرجح and يأنح and يأزح and يملح, (ISd,) [and يضح] inf. n. نِكَاحٌ (S, K, &c.) and نَكْحٌ; (ISd, K;) Inivit feminam: and (sometimes, S) he married, took in marriage, or contracted a marriage with, a woman: as also ↓ استنكح (S, K, &c.) [and ↓ ناكح, inf. n. مُنَاكَحَةٌ:] used only with reference to a man: (ISd:) but Th uses it with reference to flies: (TA:) J says, that it is sometimes used in the latter sense; but accord. to the Msb it is more commonly so used; (MF;) and it is used only in this sense in the Kur: (TA:) IF and others say, that it signifies coitus; and coitus without marriage; and marriage without coitus: (Msb:) [but] in the Time of Ignorance, when a man demanded a woman in marriage he said, اِنْكِحِينِى; and when he desired fornication, he said, سَافِحِينِى. (TA, in art سفح.) It is disputed whether it be proper or tropical in these two senses; or proper in one, and tropical in one: (MF:) it is said to be from نَكَحَهُ الدَّوَى, or from تَنَاكَحَتِ الأَشْجَارُ, or from نَكَحَ المَطَرُ الأَرْضَ; and if so, it is tropical in both the above senses; and the opinion that it is so is confirmed by this, that the signification of marriage is not understood unless by a word or phrase in connexion with it, as when you say نَكَحَ فِى بَنِى

فُلَانٍ [he took a wife from among the sons of such a one]; nor is that of coitus unless by the same means, as when you say نَكَحَ زَوْجَتَهُ [inivit conjugem suam]; and this is one of the signs of a tropical expression. (Msb.) b2: نَكَحَتْ She married, or took a husband. (S, K.) b3: نَكَحَ المَطَرُ الأَرْضَ The rain became commingled with the soil: (Msb:) or, rested upon the ground so as to soak it; syn. إِعْتَمَدَ عَلَيْهَا: (K:) as also ↓ نَاكَهَا. (L.) b4: نَكَحَهُ الدَّوَى The disease infected him (خَامَرهُ), and overcame him. (Msb.) b5: نَكَحَ النُّعَاسُ عَيْنَهُ (tropical:) Drowsiness overcame his eye; (K;) as also نَاكَهَا: and in like manner ↓ استنكح النَّوْمُ عَيْنَهُ sleep overcame his eye. (TA.) 3 نَاْكَحَ see 1.4 انكحهُ المَرْأَةَ He married the woman to him. (TA.) b2: أَنْكَحَهَا He married the woman; i. e. gave her in marriage. (S, K.) b3: أَنْكِحُوا الحَصَى أَخْفَافَ الإِبِلِ (tropical:) [Accustom ye the feet of the camels to pebbles]. (A.) 6 تناكحوا They intermarried; contracted marriages together. (Commencing a trad. in the Jámi' es-Sagheer.) [And تَنَاكَحَا Se invicem futuerunt: see 6, in art. ردف] b2: تَنَاكَحَتِ الأَشْجَارُ The trees became drawn, or connected, together. (Msb.) 10 إِسْتَنْكَحَ see 1.

نِكْحٌ and ↓ نُكْحٌ substs. from أَنْكَحَهَا, [The act of giving a woman in marriage]. (K.) b2: [These two words are properly quasi-inf. ns, of أَنْكَحَ, signifying as explained above; and, like inf. ns., may be used as epithets, meaning A giver of a woman in marriage, correlative to خُِطْبٌ.] It was a custom, in the time of paganism, for a man to come to a tribe asking for a woman in marriage; and he would stand up in their assembly, and say خِطْبٌ, i. e., I have come as an asker of a woman in marriage; whereupon it would be said to him نِكْحٌ, meaning We marry her to thee, or give her to thee in marriage, [or, more lit., we are givers of her in marriage: for an inf. n. or quasi-inf. n. used as an epithet is used without variation as sing., dual., and pl.; and masc. and fem.]. ↓ نُكْحٌ was also said: but نِكْحٌ is here said for the sake of resemblance to خِطْبٌ. (L.) You say هو نِكْحُهَا He is the person who gives her in marriage: and هِىَ نِكْحَتُهُ She is the person whom he gives in marriage. (Lh, L) b3: نِكْحٌ and ↓ نُكْحٌ, [and, accord. to Lth and ISh, نِكِحٌ: see إِبِدٌ:] are also two words by which the [Pagan] Arabs used to take women in marriage: (S:) [meaning A giver of a woman in marriage]. (MF, in art. خطب.) A man used to say to Umm-Khárijeh, in asking her in marriage, خُِطْبٌ, and she used to reply نُكِْحٌ: hence the saying أَسْرَعُ مِنْ نِكَاحِ أُمِّ خَارِجَةَ [Quicker than the marriage of Umm-Khárijeh]. (S, K.) [See خِطْبٌ].

نُكْحٌ: see نِكْحٌ.

نُكَحٌ: see نَكَحُةٌ.

رَجُلٌ نُكَحَةٌ, (S, K,) and ↓ نُكَحٌ (K) A man who marries much, or often: (S, K, TA:) Az explains the former by شَدِيدُ النِّكَاحِ, [app. meaning vehement in coitus,] and mentions as its pl. نُكَحَاتٌ: (TA:) [and ↓ نَكَّاحٌ (A, TA, art. تيس, &c.) signifies the same.]

نَكَّاحٌ: see نُكَحَةٌ.

نَاكِحٌ (S, K) and نَاكِحَةٌ, (K,) the latter occurring in poetry, (TA,) A woman married; (TA;) having a husband. (S, K, TA.) Ex.

هِىَ نَاكِحٌ فِى بَنِى فُلاَنٍ She has a husband among the sons of such a one. (S.) مَنْكَِحٌ and مَنْكُوحَةٌ: see مَنَاكِحُ.

مَنَاكِحُ Women, or wives; syn. نِسَآءٌ: (K:) a pl. having no sing.; or its sing. is ↓ مَنْكَحٌ; [or ↓ مَنْكِحٌ, which occurs in the S and K, art. علث, evidently as signifying a wife; as though being a place of نِكَاح;] or ↓ مَنْكُوحَةٌ. (TA.) b2: إِنَّ المَنَاكِحَ خَيْرَهُا الأَبْكَارُ [Verily the best of women to take in marriage are virgins]. A proverb. (TA.)
