Classical Arabic - English Dictionary

زَغْبَرَ It (a garment, or piece of cloth,) had what is termed زِغْبِر, or زِغْبُر, &c., i. e. زِئْبِر [or nap]. (O, Ḳ.)

زِغْبِرٌ, (O and TA, and so in a copy of the Ḳ,) or زَغْبَرٌ, or زِغْبَرٌ, (as in two different copies of the Ḳ,) and زِغْبُرٌ, (O and TA, and so accord. to a copy of the Ḳ,) or زَغْبُرٌ, (accord. to another copy of the Ḳ,) of a garment, or piece of cloth, i. q. زِئْبِرٌ [i. e. The nap: see زِئْبِرٌ, in art. زبر]. (O, Ḳ.) [Hence, app., supposing زَغْبَرٌ to be a dial. var., having the signification expl. above,] أَخَذَ الشَّىْءَ بِزَغْبَرِهِ He took the thing altogether, (O, Ḳ,* TA,) leaving nothing of it; as also بِزَأْبَرِهِ, and بِزَوْبَرِهِ. (O, TA.)
