Root entry · 1 derived lemma

2 غلّلهُ ذ , (K,) or غلّل لِحْيَتَهُ, (S, O,) بِالغَالِيَةِ, (S, O, K,) inf. n. تَغْلِيلٌ, (K,) He perfumed him, (K,) or daubed, or smeared, his beard, much, (O,) the teshdeed denoting muchness, (S, O,) with غَالِيَة: (S, O, K:) and بالغالية ↓ تغلّل and ↓ اغتلّ and ↓ تَغَلْغَلَ He perfumed himself with غالية: (K:) Lh mentions تَغَلَّى بِالغَالِيَةِ, which is either from the word غَالِيَة or originally تَغَلَّلَ, in the latter case being like تَظَنَّيْتُ for تَظَنَّنْتُ, but the former is the more agreeable with analogy: accord. to Fr, one says, بالغالية ↓ تَغَلَّلْتُ, and not تَغَلَّيْتُ: (TA:) As held ↓ تَغَلَّلْتُ from الغالية to be allowable if meaning I introduced the غالية into my beard or my mustache; (S, O;) and the like is the case with respect to غَلَّلْتُ بِهَا لِحْيَتِى: (S:) accord. to Lth, one says, from الغالية, غَلَّلْتُ and غَلَّفْتُ and غَلَّيْتُ. (TA. [See also 1 in art. غلف; and see art. غلى.])
