Root entry · 1 derived lemmaبَقْلٌ بقل قل a word of which the meaning is well known; (S;) [ Leguminous, or tender, plants; such as we term herbs; i. e. plants, or vegetables, that may be gathered, with the hand, or depastured down to the ground, and that are only annuals; ] plants which are neither shrubs nor trees; (Lth, JK, * Mgh;) such as, when depastured, have no stem remaining; thus differing from trees and shrubs, which have stems remaining [ when they have been depastured ]: (Lth, Mgh:) or the herbs, or herbage, produced by [ the rain, or the season, called ] the رَبِيع: (Mgh:) or whatever herbs, or plants, grow from seed, (AHn, Mgh, K,*) not upon a permanent أَرُومَة [i. e. root-stock, or root ]: (AHn, K:) and accord. to this definition may be explained the saying that the cucumber is of the things termed بُقُولٌ [pl. of بَقْلٌ, meaning sorts, or species, of بَقْل], not of those termed فَوَاكِهُ: (Mgh:) or the kind of which the root and branch do not last in the winter: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or, it is said, (S, Mgh,) any plants, or herbs, whereby the earth becomes green: (S, IF, Mgh, Msb:) [pl. of pauc. أَبْقَالٌ: the pl. of mult. has been mentioned above:] the n. un. is with ة, i. e. بَقْلَةٌ. (S, K.) Hence the prov., لَا تُنْبِتُ البَقْلَةَ اـِلَّا الحَقْلَةُ [ Nothing produces the leguminous, or tender, plant, or herb, but the clear and open piece of good land ]: (TA:) [i. e., only a good parent produces good offspring: (see Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 516:)] it is said to be applied to the case of a vile saying proceeding from a vile man. (TA in art. حقل.) The saying بَاعَ الزَّرْعَ وَ هُوَ بَقْلٌ means [ He sold the seedproduce ] when it was green, not yet ripe.
