رنق
Root entry · 1 derived lemmaرَنْقَةٌ ذ A small quantity of turbid water remaining in a watering-trough or tank. (TA.) [And accord. to Freytag, ↓ رَنْقَاآءُ occurs in the Deewán El-Hudhaleeyeen as meaning A small quantity of turbid water. ] Accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, (TA,) one says, صَارَ المَاآءُ رَنْقَةً, (K, TA,) or ↓ رُوْنَقَةً, (JK, and so in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K,) meaning The water became such that mud predominated in it: (JK, K, TA:) but the correct phrase, as given in the “Nawádir” by Lh, is, صَارَ المَاآءُ رَنْقَةً وَاحِدَةً [ The water became one puddle in which mud predominated ]. (TA.) See also رَنْقٌ.
