دَكٌّ دك An even, or a level, place; (K;) [and so ↓ أَدَكُّ, as is shown by an explanation of its fem. in this paragraph:] or land, or ground, broken, and made even: (S:) you say أَرْضٌ دَكٌّ: (Akh, S:) pl. دُكُوكٌ.

[ He made it, in the former instance, and shall make it, in the latter instance,] even, or level, (AZ, Az, Ibn-'Arafeh,) without any hill: (Ibn- 'Arafeh: [this addition relating to the former instance:]) or crumbled: (Ksh, * Bd:) or, accord. to Akh, دَكًّا may be here an inf. n.; as though the meaning were ↓ دَكَّهُ دَكًّا: [see 1:] or it may be elliptical, meaning جَعَلَهُ ذَا دَكٍّ: another reading is ↓ جَعَلَهُ دَكَّاآءَ, (S,) meaning in the former instance a hill rising from the ground like the دَكَّةَ: (Ksh:) or meaning جَعَلَهُ أَرْضًا دَكَّاآءَ, (S,) i. e. He made it even, or level, ground; (Ksh, Bd;) because the word جَبَل [to which دكّاآء virtually relates] is masc. (S.) ― -b2- Also, [as a subst.,] Even, or level, sand; and so ↓ دَكَّةٌ: pl.
