Root entry · 1 derived lemma

1 عَذُبَ ذ , (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) aor. عَذُبَ , (TA,) inf. n. عُذُوبَةٌ, said of water, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) [and app. of wine or other beverage, and of food, (see عَذْبٌ,)] It was, or became, sweet: (S, O, * TA:) or it was, or became, easy and agreeable to be drunk or swallowed. (Msb.) [See also 12. ― -b2- Freytag has also assigned to it a meaning belonging to أَعْذَبَ, q. v.] -A2- عَذَبَ: see 4, in two places. -A3- And see also 2, last sentence. -A4- [عَذِبَ, inf. n. عَذَبٌ, is mentioned by Golius as signifying “ Quisquiliis aut lente palustri obducta fuit, ” and in a similar manner by Freytag; by both as said of water, and as on the authority of the K: but I find, in the K, no ground for this, except an explanation of عَذِبٌ, q.v., of which ISd knew not a verb.]
