بَصَلٌ / بَصَلَةٌ
بَصَلٌ [The onion; allium cepa: or onions, collectively:] what it signifies is well known: n. un. with ة
[Also Any kind of bulb, or bulbous plant.] بَصَلُ الزَّعْفَرَانِ [The bulb of the saffron], which is buried in the ground, is like the بَصَل [or onion] commonly known. (Mgh.) بَصَل الفَأْرِ is the same as الإِسْقِيلُ and الإِسْقَالُ and العُنْصَلُ, (Ḳ in art. سقل,) also written العُنْصُلُ, (Ḳ in art. عصل,) or بَصَلُ العنصل, (KL voce زيزٌ, [and so as written by Golius,]) [Scilla, or squill; particularly scilla maritima, or officinal squill; called by all these names, except, perhaps, السقال, in the present day;] also called زِيزٌ, and البَصَلُ البَرِّىُّ [the wild onion; but from what follows, it seems that there is a confusion here].

(KL voce بلبوس. [This last assertion suggests that الزير and الرند may be mistranscriptions for الزِّيز; the زيز mentioned before.]) [بَصَلُ القىْءَ Bulbus vomitorius; mentioned by Golius; and by Dioscorides, (l. ii. c. 201,) as being emetic and diuretic.]
Also, (Ḳ,) or بَصَلَةٌ, (M,) ‡ A helmet (M, Ḳ) of iron, (Ḳ,) pointed in the middle; so called as being likened to what is first mentioned above. (M.) Lebeed likens helmets to بَصَل. (Ṣ.)
