لَادٌّ ذ and ↓ لَدُودٌ, (S, L, Msb, K,) the latter having an intensive sense, and ↓ لَدٌّ, which is an inf. n. used as an epithet [and therefore also intensive], (Msb,) A man who overcomes in contention, or altercation; in dispute; in litigation: (S, * L, K: *) or, who opposes violently, or vehemently, and very violently, or vehemently, in contention, or altercation; in dispute; in litigation: (Msb:) and ↓ أَلَدُّ (S, L, Msb, K) and ↓ أَلَنْدَدٌ and ↓ يَلَنْدَدٌ (S, L, K) a man violent, or vehement, in contention, or altercation; in dispute; in litigation: (S, L, Msb:) or difficult therein, and vehement in war: (IKtt:) or a contentious, disputatious, or litigious, (L,) and tenacious adversary, who will not incline to the truth: (L, K:) the fem. of ↓ ألَدُّ is لَدَّاآءُ: (L, Msb:) and the pl, لُدٌّ (S, L, Msb, K) and لِدَادٌ: (L, K:) the أ in ↓ أَلَنْدَدٌ and the ى in ↓ يَلَنْدَدٌ are letters of quasi-coördination, [i. e., added to render those two words quasi-coordinate to سَفَرْجَلٌ,] as is shown by the two dáls being not incorporated by idghám; for it is allowable to add a letter at the beginning of a word for the purpose of quasi-coördination when the word has another augmentative letter: (IJ, L:) the dim. of ↓ أَلنْدَدٌ is ↓ أُلَيْدُّ, because it is originally أَلَدُّ, the ن being added to render it quasi-coördinate to سَفَرْجَلٌ. (S, L.) قَوْمًا لُدًّا in the Kur, [xix. 97,] is said to signify A people who are adversaries perverted from the truth: or, who are deaf to the truth. (L.) You say also, هُوَ شَدِيدٌ لَدِيدٌ [assimilating the second epithet in form to the first, He is strong, and one who overcomes in contention, &c. ] (A.)
