جرن
Root entry · 1 derived lemmaجِرْنٌ جار جرن The body, with the limbs or members; syn. جِسْمٌ; said to be a dial. var. of جِرْمٌ; or the ن may be a substitute for the جرم of أَجْرَانٌ; but the former is the more probable, as the word has a pl., namely, أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ أَجْرَانَهُ, and this is scarcely ever the case when a word is formed by substitution. (TA.) Hence the saying, أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ أَجْرَانَهُ, i. q. القى عليه أَجْرَامَهُ and شَرَاشِرَهُ [ He threw upon him, or it, the weight of his body ]: (Lh, TA: [see also شَرْشَرةٌ, under which other explanations are given:]) or he threw his weights [meaning his whole weight ] upon him, or it; and so القى ↓ عليه جِرَانَهُ: or, accord. to the A, he disposed, or subjected, his mind to it; or persuaded himself to do it; namely, an affair. (TA.)
