طهو طوب طوح


طُوبٌ / طُوبَةٌ

طُوبٌ Baked bricks; syn. آجُرٌّ: (Ṣ, O, Mṣb, Ḳ:) n. un. with ة {طُوبَةٌ}: so says Az, and El-Fárábee says the like; and accord. to them it seems to be [genuine] Arabic: accord. to IDrd, it is of the dial. of Syria; but [Fei adds] I think it to be of the dial. of Room: (Mṣb:) or it is of the dial. of Egypt: (Ṣ, O:) [probably of Coptic origin. It is mentioned in the Ṣ and Ḳ in art. طيب.]


وَطَوْبَةً

أَوْبَةً وَطَوْبَةً, [the latter word] meaning الطِّيبَ, [and both together A return and perfume,] is a phrase which one says to the person entering and to him coming [as though he who said this meant I experience a return that is to me like perfume]. (O.)


طُوبَى

طُوبَى: see art. طيب.


[طَوَّابٌ]

[طَوَّابٌ A baker of bricks: from طُوبٌ: mentioned by Golius, in art. طيب, as occurring in the Hist. Sar.: and it is used in this sense in the present day.]
