عنو

5 تعنّى ذ He [a camel] was, or became, smeared with عَنِيَّة [q. v.]: whence the saying of EshShaabee, لَأَنْ أَتَعَنَّى بِعَنِيَّةٍ أَحَبُّ اـِلَىَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَقُولَ فِى مَسْأَلَةٍ بِرَأْيِى [ Verily my being smeared with عَنِيَّة would be more approvable to me than my saying respecting a question according to my opinion ].
