بن

بِنٌّ بان بن بنن A place having a fetid odour. (Fr, T, K.) -A2- It also signifies طِرْقٌ مِنَ الشَّحْمِ (T, K) and السِّمَنِ (K, TA: in the CK السَّمْنِ:) [said in the TA to mean قُوَّةٌ مِنْهُمَا, i. e. Strength arising from fat and from fatness: but I think that وَالسِّمَنِ has been added in the K in consequence of a misunderstanding, and that the meaning is a layer of fat; this meaning seeming to be indicated by the ex. here following, and corroborated by significations of several conjugates of طِرْقٌ, as طَرِيقَةٌ and طَرَقٌ and طِرَاقٌ &c.] One says (T, K) of a beast (دَابَّة) when it has become fat, (T,) رَكِبَهَا بِنٌّ عَلَىبِنٍ (T, K *) and طِرْقٌ عَلَى طِرْقٍ (T) [clearly I think, meaning Layer upon layer, of fat, has accumulated upon it. ]
