ورب

وَرْبٌ ذ The hole of a wild beast: pl. أَوْرَابٌ. (K, TA.) ― -b2- وَرْبٌ The space between two ribs; مَا بَيْنَ الضِّلَعَيْنِ: (K:) but this (says SM) I find not in any other book than the K; and probably it should be ما بين اـِصْبَعَيْنِ the space between two fingers; for we read in the L that ورب is said to signify مابين الأَصَابِعِ: (TA:) pl. أَوْرَابٌ. (K, TA.) [See also أَرْبٌ.] ― -b3- وَرْبٌ The space measured by the extension of the thumb and forefinger; syn. فِتْرٌ: pl. أَوْرَابٌ. (K, TA.) -A2- وَرْبٌ A member; a limb: pl. أَوْرَابٌ. (K, TA.) ↓ وِرْبٌ [also] is a dial. from of اـِرْبٌ, (K,) as signifying “ a member, or limb. ” (TA.) The form of word commonly known, says AM, is اـِرْبٌ; but I do not deny that ورب may be a dial. form, like as وِرْثٌ and اـِرْثٌ are two words whereof one is a dial. form of the other. (TA.) ― -b2- وَرْبٌ and ↓ وَرْبَةٌ The podex: syn. اـِسْتٌ: pl. of the former أَوْرَابٌ. (K, TA.) ― -b3- ↓ وَرْبَةٌ The pit, or hollow, that is in the lower part of the side, i. e., the hypochondre, or flank. (TA.) ― -b4- وَرْبٌ The mouth of the hole of a rat, or mouse, (فَأْرَة,) and of a scorpion: pl. أَوْرَابٌ. (K.)
