(TA.) A poet says, (S,) namely, En-Noamán Ibn-Nadleh, (TA,) اـِذَا شِئْتُ غَنَّتْنِى دَهَاقِينُ قَرْيَةٍ وَصَنَّاجَةٌ تَجْذُو عَلَى حَرْفِ مَنْسِمِ [ When I will, the husbandmen of a village sing to me, and a female player with the cymbals, standing upon the extremity of a toe ].

(K.) ― -b5- جَذَا مَنْخِرَاهُ His nostrils were, or became, raised and extended. (TA.) ― -b6- Er-Rá'ee, describing a strong, or sturdy, she-camel, says, لَمْ يَجْذُ مِرْفَقُهَا فِى الدَّفِ مِنْ زَوَرِ meaning Her elbow did not stand out far from the side by reason of [ the distortion termed ] زَوَر.
