غن

أَغَنُّ ذ One who speaks [ with a nasal sound, or twang, i. e.] in [or rather through ] his nose; (TA;) who speaks from his خَيَاشِيم [app. here meaning (as expl. before) the innermost parts of the airpassages of the nose ]: (S, Msb:) or, accord. to AZ, (Mgh, TA,) whose speech flows, (Mgh, K, *) or passes forth, (TA,) in his لَهَاة [app. (as expl. voce غُنَّةٌ) the arches, or pillars, of the soft palate, or the furthest part of the mouth ]: (Mgh, K, TA:) fem. غَنَّاآءُ, applied to a woman. (Msb.) ― -b2- It is also applied to a gazelle (ظَبْىٌ), meaning Whose cry issues from his خَيَاشِيم [expl. above]: J has erred in saying that it is applied to طَيْر [i. e. birds, or flying things]: (K:) or if by طير he mean flies (ذُبَابٌ), his saying thus is not a mistake, for it is applied to them [as meaning making a humming sound ]. (TA.) ― -b3- [Hence,] وَادٍ أَغَنُّ (assumed tropical:) A valley abounding with herbs or herbage: for to such the flies constantly keep, and in their sounds is a غُنَّة. (S. [See also مُغِنٌّ.]) And (for this reason, TA) one says رَوْضَةٌ غَنَّاآءُ i. e. (assumed tropical:) [ A meadow, or garden, ] abounding with herbs or herbage: or in which the winds pass with a sound that is not clear, [i. e. with a confused, humming, or murmuring, sound, ] by reason of the denseness of its herbs or herbage. (K, TA.) And [for the same reason one says] عُشْبٌ أَغَنُّ (assumed tropical:) Herbs, or herbage, tall, full-grown, or of full height, and in blossom. (TA.) ― -b4- And (hence also, S) قَرْيَةٌ غَنَّاآءُ (tropical:) [ A town, or village, ] abounding with inhabitants (S, K, TA) and buildings (K, TA) and herbs or herbage [ so that in it is heard the hum of men and women and of flies &c. ]. (S, TA.) ― -b5- حَرْفٌ أَغْنُّ means A letter from [ the utterance of ] which results what is termed غُنَّة [i. e. the nasal sound thus termed ]. (TA.) ― -b6- See also غُنَّةٌ, last sentence.
