Root entry · 1 derived lemma

1 رَاعَ ذ , aor. يَرِيعُ, (Msb, K,) inf. n. رَيْعٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and رُيُوعٌ (TA) and رِيَاعٌ (Lh, TA) and رَيَعَانٌ, (TA,) It increased, or augmented; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) said of wheat and other things: or, as some say, it denotes زِيَادَة [i. e. it signifies it became redundant, or it exceeded, as will be seen in what follows; but the truth is, that it has both of these significations; the latter] in relation to flour, and to bread. (TA.) You say, رَاعَتِ الحِنْطَةُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. تَرِيعُ, inf. n. رَيْعٌ [&c.]; (Msb;) and ↓ أَرَاعَت, (S, K,) which latter is said by Az to be more commonly used than the former; (TA;) and الطَّعَامُ ↓ رَيَّعَ [which is the same as رَيَّعَتِ الحِنْطَةُ]; (TA;) The wheat increased, or augmented; or received increase and blessing from God; or throve by the blessing of God: (S, Msb, K, TA:) and in like manner one says of other things. (Msb.) And رَاعَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ, and ↓ اراعت, but the former is rare, The tree became abundant in its produce, or fruit. (AHn.) And sometimes they said, (S,) الاـِبِلُ ↓ اراعت (S, IF, K) (tropical:) The camels had many young ones; (S;) they increased, and had many young ones. (IF, K.) One says also, رَاعَ الطَّعَامُ, and ↓ اراع, The wheat became redundant; or had a part, or portion, redundant; [app. meaning, over and above the original measure; ] in the kneading and the making of bread; syn. صَارَ لَهُ زِيَادَةٌ. (S.) [See the first sentence above; and see رَيْعٌ, below.] And رَاعَ فِى يَدِى كَذَا Such a thing was redundant, or remained over and above, in my hand; as also رَاقَ; syn. زَادَ: (L in this art., and TA in art. روع:) Sgh has mistranscribed the explanation, زاد, in his two books, [the TS and the O,] writing فَادَ; and the author of the K has imitated him in mentioning this in art. روع, instead of the present art., which is its proper place, but has written for the explanation أَفَادَ. (TA.) -A2- رَاعَ, aor. يَرِيعُ, (IDrd, S, K,) inf. n. رَيْعٌ, (S, TA,) He, or it, returned; went, or came, back; reverted: (IDrd, S, K:) and رَاعَ, aor. يَرُوعُ, (IDrd, and K in art. روع,) inf. n. رُوَاعٌ, (K in that art.,) signifies the same; (IDrd, and K in art. روع;) or it returned to its place: (TA in that art.:) but the former verb is the more common. (TA in the present art.) One says, of camels that have run away, صَاحَ عَلَيْهَا الرَّاعِى فَرَاعَتْ اـِلَيْهِ [ The pastor cried out at them, and ] they returned to him. (TA.) And وَعَظْتُهُ فَأَبِى أَنْ يَرِيعَ [ I exhorted him, but he refused ] to return, or revert. (TA.) And فُلَانٌ مَا يَرِيعُ بِكَلَامِكَ وَلا بِصَوْتِكَ Such a one does not return, or revert, by reason of thy speech nor by reason of thy voice. (TA.) And you say of vomit, رَاعَ مِنْهُ شَىْءٌ Somewhat of it returned: (S:) and رَاعَ عَلَيْهِ it returned to his inside. (TA.) And in like manner one says of anything that returns to him, رَاعَ, aor. يَرِيعُ. (TA.) ― -b2- رَاعُوا, They drew, gathered, or collected, themselves together; (Ibn- 'Abbád, TA;) as also ↓ تريّعوا; and ↓ ريّعوا, (Ibn-'Abbád, K,) inf. n. تَرْيِيعٌ. (TA.) ― -b3- See also 5. -A3- It became rent: so in the saying of El-Kumeyt, اـِذَا حِيصَ مِنْهُ جَانِبٌ رَاعَ جَانِبٌ [ When a side thereof is sewed up, a side becomes rent ]. (S.) -A4- [It is also said that] رَاعَ, aor. يَرِيعُ, is like رَدَّ [app. as signifying He returned a reply, or an answer, to a person; for it is mentioned immediately after رَيْعٌ as syn. with مَرْجُوعٌ]. (TA.)
