نيء

Root entry · 1 derived lemma

4 اناء الأَمْرَ ذ He did the thing not firmly, not soundly, not thoroughly. الامر ↓ نيّأ, accord. to the K, signifies the same: but this is unknown, and not authorized by transmission [from the Arabs of the classical ages], and therefore not mentioned by IM nor by other leading lexicographers: the correct phrases are [when the verb is intrans.] ناء الامرُ [and اللحمُ], and [when it is trans.] اناء اللحمَ [and الامر]: the forms of the verb being like بَانَ and أَبَانَ. (TA.) ― -b2- اناء, (S, incorrectly written in the K أَنْيَأَ, TA,) inf. n. اـِنَاآءَةٌ, He insufficiently cooked flesh-meat [&c.]. (S, K.)
