غضن

Root entry · 1 derived lemma

1 غَضَنَهُ ذ , (S, K,) aor. غَضِنَ and غَضُنَ , (K,) inf. n. غَضْنٌ, (S,) He, or it, (a man, and a thing, S,) withheld, restrained, hindered, or diverted, him. (S, K.) One says, مَا غَضَنَكَ عَنَّا What withheld, hindered, or diverted, or has withheld, &c., thee from us? (S.) In the “ Nawádir ” of IAar, this verb, which is correctly thus, with ض, is erroneously with ص. (TA.) -A2- غَضَنَتْ بِوَلَدِهَا, and ↓ غَضّنت, She (a camel) cast her young one, or fœtus, in an imperfect state, (K, TA.) before the hair had grown upon it and its make had become [ perfectly apparent. (TA. [See also خَدَجَتْ.]) [This is what is meant in the S where, after the mention of a signification of ↓ التَّغْضِين which will be found below, it is said that this word signifies also الرِّجَاعُ (an inf. n. of رَجَعَتْ, q. v.): hence, app., (though referring to the K as his authority,) Freytag has given to غضّنت, as said of a she-camel, besides the signification mentioned above, another, which is also assigned to رَجَعَتْ; i.e., she falsely indicated her being pregnant, by raising her tail, &c.] -A3- See also 5, in form places: -A4- and see 4
