Classical Arabic - English Dictionary

ريّغ † He smeared, seasoned, imbued, or soaked, a mess of ثَرِيد [i. e. broken, or crumbled, bread, بِالدَّسَمِ] with grease, or gravy, or dripping; i. q. رَوَّغَهَا (En-Naḍr, Ḳ, TA) بِالدَّسَمِ (En-Naḍr, TA.)

تريّغت اللُّقْمَةُ بِالسَّمْنِ † The morsel, or mouthful, was [smeared, seasoned,] imbued, or soaked, (تَرَوَّت,) with clarified butter. (En-Naḍr, TA.) [In the CK, and in some MṢ. copies of the Ḳ, this verb is mentioned as quasi-pass. of 2.]

رِيَاغٌ, as in the [T and] O and Tekmileh and L; in the Ḳ, erroneously, رِيغٌ↓; (TA;) Dust, or dust raised: (Sh, Ḳ:) or, as some say, (TA,) dust, or earth, (Ḳ, TA,) in a general sense: or such as is comminuted. (TA.) Ru-beh says, describing an ass [i. e. a wild ass] and his females,

* وَإِنْ أَثَارَتْ مِنْ رِيَاغٍ سَمْلَقَا *

* تَهْوِى حَوَامِيهَا بِهِ مُدَقَّقَا *

using an inversion, for he means أَثَارَتْ رِيَاغًا مِنْ سَمْلَقٍ [i. e. And if they raise earth from a level plain, the sides of their hoofs make it to fall down reduced to powder]. (TA.)

And i. q. نِفَارٌ [The act of fleeing, going away or aside or apart or to a distance, retiring to a distance, shrinking,, &c.; inf. n. of نَفَرَ, q. v.]: (Ḳ:) so some say. (TA.)

Sgh says that this word may belong to the present art. and to art. روغ, q. v. (TA.)

مَرَاغٌ, signifying The place in which beasts roll, or turn themselves over, is thought by Az to be so called from رِيَاغٌ in the first of the senses assigned to it above. (TA.)

مُرَيَّغٌ A thing defiled with dust or earth, or much sprinkled with dust. (El-'Azeezee, Ḳ.)
