[proper] name: (L: [i. e., accord. to Ibr D, because he uses عُرْجَ as a sing. proper name, curtailed by poetic license from العُرْجَة: if so, this last word seems here to signify a personification of lameness:]) and accord. to him (i. e. IAar), one says ↓ هٰذِهِ عُرَاجُ, meaning This is the female hyena [not hyenas]; the latter word imperfectly decl. (O.) ― -b4- الأَعْرَجُ is also an appellation of A certain deaf, malignant serpent.
