(L.) أَعْزِمُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الجُرْحُ أَنْ لَا تَزِيدَ وَلَا تُدِيدَ↓ [I conjure thee, O wound, that thou increase not nor breed worms,] is a form of conjuration used by the Arabs. (A.)

دوّد: see above {1}.

Also He played with the دَوْدَاة, i. e. أُرْجُوَحة [or seesaw]. (Ḳ.)

دُودٌ a word of well-known signification, [Worms, grubs, maggots, and the like; including molluscs; as a coll. gen. n.: and, as a simple gen. n., the worm, grub, maggot,, &c.:] pl. of دُودَةٌ [or rather, as already said, and as is implied in several of the lexicons, دُودٌ is a coll. gen. n.; therefore دُودَةٌ is the n. un. thereof]: and the pl. of دُودٌ is دِيدَانٌ. (T, Ṣ, L, Mṣb. [In the Ḳ, دِيدَانٌ is said to be pl. of دُودَةٌ: and in the L, as from the T, دُودَانٌ is said to be another pl. of دُودٌ: this, however, I regard as a mistake; for I do not find it in the T; but I there find added, after دِيدَانٌ, “and دُودَانٌ is a tribe of Benoo-Asad.”]) J says that the dim. is دُوَيْدٌ↓, and that by rule it should be دُوَيْدَةٌ: but this is a mistake [unless it be meant that دُوَيْدَةٌ is the regular dim. of دُودَةٌ]: it is regularly دُوَيْدٌ, like as تُمَيْرٌ and قُيَيْحٌ are regular dims. of تَمْرٌ and قَمْحٌ, which are pls. [or rather coll. gen. ns.] of تَمْرَةٌ and قَمْحَةٌ. (IB.)

دَوْدَاةٌ A seesaw; syn. أُرْجُوحَةٌ: (Ḳ in this art., and T and Ṣ in art. دو:) and the mark made by children upon the dust, or earth, like a path, or track, when they play [upon the seesaw], doing thus with their feet, moving forwards and backwards: (Ṣ in art. دو:) or the mark of the ارجوحة: (M and Ḳ in that art.:) or the sound of the ارجوحة: (TA in the present art.:) and cries, shouts, noises, or clamour; or a confusion, or mixture, of cries, shouts,, &c.: (Ḳ in this art.:) دَوْدَاةٌ is [said by ISd to belong to art. دو, and to be] originally دَوْدَوَةٌ: (M in art. دو:) the pl. is دَوَادٍ, (T and Ṣ * and M in that art.,) explained by Aṣ as signifying the marks of the أَرَاجِيح [or seesaws] of children; (TA in the present art.;) and دَوَادِىَ occurs in a verse, in the gen. case, (Ṣ and M in art. دو,) by poetic license. (M in that art.)

حَيَوَانٌ دُودِىٌّ [app. A worm-like animal]. (TA in art. ذرح.)

دَائِدٌ andمُدِيدٌ↓ andمُدَوِّدٌ↓ (Mṣb) andمَدُودٌ↓ (L) [the last from دِيدَ, confirming my opinion that دَيَّدَ in some copies of the Ḳ is a mistranscription,] Corn, or food, (طَعَامٌ,) having in it دُود [or worms,, &c.]; (L, Mṣb;) and becoming eaten thereby. (L.)
