(MA.) ― -b3- [Golius assigns to دال, with دَوْلَةٌ for its inf. n., as on the authority of the S and KL, two significations app. from two meanings of دَوْلَةٌ, one of which he seems to have misunderstood, and to neither of which do I find any corresponding verb: they are “ Obivit alter alterum in bello: ” and “ superior evasit. ” There are many inf. ns. that have no corresponding verbs.] ― -b4- دال, aor. يَدُوِلُ, (T, K,) inf. n. دَوْلٌ and دَالَةٌ, (K,) or دَوْلَةٌ, (T,) He became notorious [either in a bad or in a good sense ]; expl. by صَارَ شُهْرَةً, (IAar, T, K,) i. e. مَشْهُورًا.

2 دوّل دول دولة He wrote a د. (TA.)

3 داول داول , [inf. n. مُدَاوَلَةٌ,] He made to come round [ by turns, or to be by turns ]: hence the saying in the Kur [iii. 134], و تِلْكَ الْأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ And those days, we make them to come round [ by turns ] to men: (S, * K, * TA:) or this means, we dispense them by turns to men; (Bd, Jel;) to these one time, and to these another; (Bd;) or one day to one party, and one day to another. (Jel.) You say, دَاوَلْتُ الشَّىْءَ بَيْنَهُمْ ↓ فَتَدَاوَلُوهُ [ I dispensed the thing among them by turns, and they had, or received, or took, it by turns ]. (Bd on the passage of the Kur quoted above.) مُدَاوَلَةٌ also signifies The giving a turn of fortune, or good fortune. (KL. [See what next follows.])

4 ادالهُ أدال أداله اداله ادالة , (M, K,) inf. n. اـِدَالَةٌ, (T, TA,) [signifying He gave him a turn of good fortune, or a turn to prevail over another in war, &c.,] is from الدَّوْلَةُ. (T, M, K, TA. [See what next precedes.]) Hence, [in the CK from الدُّولَة,] the saying, أَدَالَنَا ا@للّٰهُ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا [ God gave us, or may God give us, a turn to prevail over our enemy ]. (S, K.) And أَدَالَكَ ا@للّٰهُ مِنْ عَدُوِّكَ and عَلَى عَدُوِّكَ, i. e. جَعَلَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِ دَوْلَةً [ May God appoint thee, or give thee, a turn to prevail over thine enemy ]. (Ham p. 547.) And ادال ا@للّٰهُ زَيْدًا مِنْ عَمْرٍو [ God gave to Zeyd a turn to have the superiority over 'Amr; ] i. e. God took away the turn of good fortune, or the good fortune, (الدولة,) from 'Amr, and gave it to Zeyd. (Har p. 118.) Hence, also, (TA,) El-Hajjáj said, اـِنَّ الأَرْضَ سَتُدَالُ مِنَّا كَمَا أُدِلْنَا مِنْهَا [ Verily the earth will be given (?) turn to prevail over us, like as we have been given a turn to prevail over it ]; (Lth, T, TA;) meaning that it will consume us, like as we have consumed [of] it. (T, TA.) And [hence] اـِدَالَةٌ signifies غَلَبَةٌ [or Victory ]: (S, K:) or [rather], as some say, it signifies نُصْرَةٌ [i. e. aid against an enemy ]: (Har ubi suprà:) you say, اَللّٰهُمَ أَدِلْنِى عَلَى فُلَانٌ O God, aid me against such a one. (S, and Har ubi suprà. [In the former, وَا@نْصُرْنِىعَلَيْهِ, as an explicative adjunct: in the latter, اى نصِّرنى عليه, for ا@نْصُرْنِى.])

6 تَدَاوَلُوهُ داول تداول تداولوه تداولوة They took it, or had it, by turns. (S, Msb, K. See 3.) You say, تَدَاوَلْنَا الأَمْرَ We took [or did ] the affair by turns. (M.)

And تَدَاوَلُوا البَاطِلَ They took it by turns to say, or to do, that which was false, wrong, vain, futile, or the like; syn. تَبَطَّلُوا بَيْنَهُمْ. (Az and K in art. بطل.)

And تَدَاوَلَتِ الرِّيَاحُ رَسْمَ الدَّارَ The winds blew by turns upon, or over, the remains that marked the site of the house [ so as to efface them ]; one time from the south, and another time from the north, and another time from the east, and another time from the west. (Az, TA in art. عور.) And, of a thing, you say, يُتَدَاوَلُ (T) or يُتَدَاوَلُ بِهِ (S) [meaning It is taken, or done, by turns ]. And تُدُوْوِلَتِ الأَرْضُ بِالرَّعْىِ [ The land was pastured on by turns ]. (S and K in art. وظب.) [تَدَاوَلُوهُ also signifies They made frequent use of it; i. e., used it time after time, or turn after turn; namely, a word or phrase: but perhaps in this sense it is postclassical: see an ex. in De Sacy's “ Chrest. Arabe, ” sec. ed., p. 141 of the Arabic text.] And تَدَاوَلَتِ الأَشْيَاآءُ The things alternated; or succeeded one another by turns, one taking the place of another: (L in art. نسخ:) and [in like manner] الأَزْمَنَةُ [ the times ].

(M.) ― -b3- And اندال It (the belly) became wide, and near, or approaching, to the ground. (M, K.) Also (K) It (the belly) was, or became, flaccid, flabby, or pendulous; (S, O, K;) and so ↓ دَالَ. (K.) ― -b4- And It (a thing) dangled, or moved to and fro; and hung. (M, K.)

دَالٌ دال One of the letters of the alphabet, (د,) the place of utterance of which is near to that of ت: masc. and fem.; so that you say دَالٌ حَسَنٌ and حَسَنَةٌ [ a beautiful د]: the pl. is أَدْوَالٌ if masc., and دَالَاتٌ [if fem.; the latter the more common]. (TA.) -A2- Also A fat woman. (Kh, TA.) -A3- See also دَالَةٌ.

دَوْلَةٌ دوله دولة A turn, mutation, change, or vicissitude, of time, or fortune, (K, TA,) from an unfortunate and evil, to a good and happy, state or condition; (TA;) [i. e.,] relating to good; as دَبْرَةٌ, on the contrary, relates to evil: (As, T and M in art. دبر:) [therefore meaning a turn of good fortune; a favourable turn of fortune: or] good fortune [absolutely]: (KL:) a happy state or condition, that betides a man: (MF:) [also] a turn which comes to one or which one takes [in an absolute sense]; syn. نَوْبَةٌ: (K in art. نوب:) and [particularly] (K) a turn (عُقْبَةٌ) [ to share ] in wealth, and [ to prevail ] in war; as also ↓ دُولَةٌ: ('Eesà Ibn-'Omar, * T, * S, * M, K: *) or each is a subst. [in an absolute sense, app. as meaning a turn of taking, or having, a thing,] from تَدَاوَلُوا الشَّىْءَ signifying “ they took, or had, the thing by turns: ” (Msb:) or ↓ دُولَةٌ is in wealth; and دَوْلَةٌ is in war; (Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà, T, S, M, Msb, K;) this latter being when one of two armies defeats the other and then is defeated; (Fr, T;) or when one party is given a turn to prevail (تُدَال) over the other: one says, كَانَتْ لَنَا عَلَيْهِمُ الدَّوْلَةُ فِى الحَرْبِ [ The turn to prevail over them in war was ours ]: (S:) and قَدْ رَجَعَتِ الدَّوْلَةُ عَلَى هٰؤُلَاآءِ [ The turn to prevail against these returned ]; as though meaning المَرَّةُ: so says Fr: but ↓ دُولَةٌ, he says, is in religions and institutions that are altered and changed with time: (T:) accord. to Zj, (T,) or A'Obeyd, (so in two copies of the S,) ↓ دُولَةٌ signifies a thing that is taken by turns; and دَوْلَةٌ, the act [ of taking by turns ]; (T, S;) and a transition from one state, or condition, to another: (T: [in this last sense, app. an inf. n.: see 1, third sentence:]) you say, بَيْنَهُمْ ↓ صَارَ الفَىْءُ دُولَةً, meaning [ The فىء (or spoil, &c.,) became ] a thing taken by turns among them: (S:) and the saying, in the Kur [lix. 7], بَيْنَ الأَغْنِيَاآءِ مِنْكُمْ ↓ كَىْ لَا يَكُونَ دُولَةً means That it may not be a thing taken by turns [ among the rich of you ]: (T:) or دَوْلَةٌ relates to the present life or world; and ↓ دُولَةٌ, to that which is to come: (M, K:) and it is said that the former of these two words signifies prevalence, predominance, mastery, or victory; and ↓ the latter, the transition of wealth, blessing, or good, from one people, or party, to another: (TA:) the pl. (of دَوْلَةٌ, S, Msb) is دَوِلٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) like as قِصَعٌ is pl. of قَصْعَةٌ, (Msb,) and (of ↓ دُولَةٌ, T, S, Msb), دُوَلٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and دُولَاتٌ, (S, TA,) and ↓ دَوَلٌ (M, K) is [a quasi-pl. n.] of both, because, as IJ says, دَوْلَةٌ is regarded as though it were originally دُولَةٌ. (M.) ― -b2- [In post-classical works, it signifies also A dynasty: and a state, an empire, or a monarchy. ] -A2- Also The حَوْصَلَة [or stomach of a bird; its triple stomach: or only its first stomach; the crop, or craw ]: because of its اِنْدِيَال [or flaccidity]. (Ibn-'Abbaád, K.) And The قَانِصَة [which may here mean the same as the حوصلة, for this is one of the meanings assigned to it, and this explanation of دولة is not given by Ibn- 'Abbád: or it may here mean the intestines, of a bird, into which the food passes from the stomach: or the gizzard ]. (K.) ― -b2- And The شِقْشِقَة [or faucial bag of the he-camel]. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) ― -b3- And A thing like a مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag ] with a narrow mouth. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) ― -b4- And The side of the belly. (K.) [But] accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, مَا أَعْظَمَ دَوْلَةَ بَطْنِهِ means How large is his navel! (TA.)

دَوَالِىُّ دالية دوالى دوالي A sort of grapes of Et-Táïf, (M, K,) black inclining to redness. (M.) [See also دَوَالٍ, in art. دلو.]

دَوَالَيْكَ دالية دواليك i. q. مُدَاوَلَةً, [in the CK, erroneously, مُتَداوَلَةً,] used in an imperative sense [with its verb and the objective complement thereof understood before it, and thus meaning دَاوِلِ الفِعْلَ مُدَاوَلَةً Make thou the action to come round, or to be, by turns ]: (M, K:) or it may be rendered as meaning that the thing happened in this manner [i. e. the action being made to come round, or to be, by turns ]: (Sb, M:) or it means تَدَاوُلٌ بَعْدَ تَدَاوُل [i. e. a taking, or doing, (a thing) by turn after (another's) doing so, and may be rendered virtually in the same manner as above, i. e. let the action be done by turns: or the action being done by turns ]: (S, O, K: [in the PS, تَدَاوُلًا بَعْدَ تَدَاوُلٍ, which better explains the two manners in which it is said to be used:]) IAar says that it is an invariable expression, like حَجَازَيْكَ and هَذَاذَيْكَ; and is from the phrase تَدَاوَلُوا الأَمْرَ بَيْنَهُمْ, said of persons when this takes a turn and this a turn. (T, TA.) 'Abd-Beni-l- Has-hás says, اـِذَ شُقَّ بُرْدٌ شُقَّ بِالبُرْدِ مِثْلُهُ دَوَالَيْكَ حَتَّى لَيْسَ لِلْبُرْدِ لَابِسُ [ When a burd (a kind of garment) is rent, the like thereof is rent with the burd, the action being done by turns, so that there is no wearer of the burd; it having been rent so as to fall off]: (S:) the poet is speaking of a man's rending the clothing of a woman to see her person, and her rending his also. (T, TA. [This verse is related with several variations: see another reading of it voce هَذَاذَيْكَ, in art. هذ; with another explanation of it.]) ― -b2- Ibn-Buzurj says, (T,) sometimes the article ال is prefixed to it, so that one says الدَّوَالَيْكَ, (T,) meaning One's walking with an elegant and a proud and self-conceited gait, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side, (T,) or one's urging, or pressing forward, and striving, (أَنْ يَتَحَفَّزَ, [in the CK, erroneously, ان يَتَحَفَّزَ,]) in his gait, or pace, (K,) when he moves about his shoulder-joints, and parts his legs widely, in walking. (T, K,* TA. In the copies of the K, جال [or جاءك] is erroneously put for حَاكَ, the reading in the T, TA. [The author of the TK follows the reading جال; and has fallen into several other evident mistakes in explaining this expression; which is itself, in my opinion, when with the article ال, a mistake for الدَّوَالِيْكُ, mentioned in art. دلك.]) A poet uses the phrase يَمْشِى الدَّوَالَيْكَ as meaning Walking, or going, in the manner explained above: (Ibn-Buzurj, T and TA in the present art.:) or يَمْشِى الدَّوَالِيكَ. (TA in art. دلك.)

مُنْدَالٌ مندال as meaning Dangling, or moving to and fro; and hanging; is said by Seer to be of the measure مُنْفَعِلٌ from التَّدَلَّى, and formed by transposition; and if so, it has no inf. n.; for the word that is formed by transposition has no inf. n. (M. [But for this assertion I see no satisfactory reason.])

مُتَدَوَالٌ متدوال : see دَوَلٌ. ― -b2- [الكَلَامُ المُتَدَاوَلُ signifies, in modern Arabic, The language commonly used. ]

دُولَابٌ دولاب , or دَوْلَابٌ: see art. دلب.

(Mgh.) [Hence, دَامَ مُلْكُهُ May his dominion be of long continuance. ] And دام عَلَى الأَمْرِ; (MA;) and عَلَيْهِ ↓ داوم, [and ↓ داومهُ, as is shown by a usage of the act. part. n. in art. دمن in the S, &c.,] (S, * MA,) inf. n. مُدَاوَمَةٌ; (S;) He kept continually, or constantly, to the thing, or affair. (S, MA.) مَا دَامَ means Continuance; because ما is a conjunct noun to دام; and it is not used otherwise than adverbially, like as inf. ns. are used adverbially: you say, لَا أَجْلِسُ مَا دُمْتَ قَائِمًا, i. e., دَوَامَ قِيَامِكَ [ I will not sit during the continuance of thy standing ]; (S, TA;) [or as long as thou standest; or while thou standest; for] ما denotes time; and قُمْ مَا دَامَ زَيْدٌ قَائِمًا means مُدَّةَ قِيَامِ زَيْدٍ [i. e. Stand thou during the period of Zeyd's standing ]. (Ibn-Keysán, TA.) [And عَلَىالدَّوَامِ means Continually, or constantly; like دَائِمًا.] ― -b2- Said of rain, it means It fell, or descended, consecutively, continuously, or constantly. (Msb.) Some say, (M,) دَامَتِ السَّمَاآءُ, aor. تَدِيمٌ, inf. n. دَيْمٌ, (M, K,) which, if correct, should be included in art. ديم, (M,) meaning The sky rained continually; as also ↓ دَوَّمَت and دَيَّمَت, (M, K,) in which last the و is changed into ى as it is in دِيمَةٌ, (M,) and ↓ ادامت: (K:) or rained such rain as is termed دِيمَة; (M in art. ديم;) and so ↓ دَيَّمَت, inf. n. تَدْيِيمٌ; (S in art. ديم;) and ↓ ادامت. (Z, TA.) [See also دَوْمٌ, below.] IAar cites the following verse, (M, TA,) by Jahm Ibn-Shibl, (TA in this art.,) or Ibn-Sebel, (TA in art. سبل, in which, also, the verse is cited,) in praise of a horse, as is said in “ the Book of Plants ” of Ed-Deenäwaree, and in “ the Book of Horses ” of Ibn-El-Kelbee, not, as J asserts it to be, in praise of a munificent man, (TA,) هُوَ الجَوَادُ بْنُ الجَوَادِ بْنِ سَبَلْ جَادَ وَ اـِنْ جَادُوا وَبَلْ ↓ اـِنْ دَيَّمُوا [ He is the fleet, the son of the fleet, the son of Sebel (a famous mare): if they are unremitting in their running, (the masc. pl. being here used, though relating to horses, in like manner as it is used in the Kur xli. 20,) he is fleet; and if they are fleet, he is vehement in his running ]: or, as some relate it, اـِنْ دَوَّمُوا. (M, TA. [It should be observed that the three verbs in this verse, and the word سبل, also relate to rain.]) ― -b3- (tropical:) It (a thing, T) was, or became, still, or motionless; said of water (T, S, * Msb, K, * TA) left in a pool by a torrent, and of the boiling of a cooking-pot; (Msb;;) and said, in this sense, of the sea: (M:) and it stopped, or stood still. (T, TA.) ― -b4- (assumed tropical:) He was, or became, tired, or fatigued: (T, TA:) [app. because he who is so stops to rest.] ― -b5- (assumed tropical:) It (a thing) went round, revolved, or circled: (T, TA:) [app. because that which does so keeps near to one place.] دَوَمَانٌ [an inf. n. of دَامَ like as حَوَمَانٌ is of حَامَ,] signifies (tropical:) The circling of a bird (K, TA) around water. (TA. [But in my MS. copy of the K, and in the CK, in the place of الدَّوَمَانُ I find ↓ الدَّوَمَاآءُ. See also 2.]) [Hence,] دِيمَ بِهِ (tropical:) He was taken, or affected, with a vertigo, or giddiness in the head; as also بِهِ ↓ أُدِيمَ, (M, TA,) and ↓ اُسْتُدِيمَ [app., in like manner, followed by بِهِ]. (Z, TA.) ― -b6- دَامَتِ الدَّلْوِ, (K,) inf. n. دَوْمٌ, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) The bucket became full: (K:) in this meaning, regard is had to the stagnant water [in the bucket]. (TA.)

2 دَوَّمَتِ السَّمَاآءُ دومت السماآء , and دَيَّمَت: and دَيَّمُوا said of horses: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in three places. ― -b2- دوّمت الكِلَابُ The dogs went far: (Akh, IAar, M, K:) or continued their course. (IAar, M.) Dhu-r-Rummeh says, (de scribing a wild bull, T, TA,) حَتَّى اـِذَا دَوَّمَتْ فِى الأَرْضِ رَاجَعَهُ كِبْرٌ وَ لَوْ شَاآءَ نَجَّى نَفْسَهُ الهَرَبُ [ Until, when they went far in the land, pride returned to him: but, had he pleased, flight had saved his blood: J, however, assigns to the verb in this instance another signification, as will be seen below]. (M, TA.) ― -b3- دوّم said of a bird, (T, M, K,) inf. n. تَدْوِيمٌ, (T, S,) (tropical:) It circled (Lth, T, S, M, K, TA) in the sky, (Lth, T, M, K,) as also ↓ تداوم, (KL,) [or ↓ تَدوّم, (see مُتَدَوِّمَاتٌ,)] to rise high towards the sky; (S;) as also ↓ استدام: (M, K:) or circled in the sky, (M,) or flew, (T, * K,) without moving its wings; (T, M, K;) like the kite and the aquiline vulture: (T, TA:) or put itself into a state of commotion in its flying. (TA. [See also 1, near the end of the paragraph.]) Dhu-r-Rummeh makes التَّدْوِيم to be on the earth, or ground, in the verse cited above in this paragraph; [as though the meaning were, (assumed tropical:) Until, when they went round &c.;] As disallows this, and asserts that one says only دَوَّى فِىالأَرْضِ, and دَوَّمَ فِى السَّمَاآءِ; but some affirm that التَّدْوِيمُ فِىالأَرْضِ is correct; and say that hence is de rived ↓ الدُّوَّامَةُ, meaning “ the round thing [or top] which the boy throws, and makes to revolve, or spin, upon the ground, by means of a string; ” though others say that this is so called from the phrase دَوَّمْتُ القِدْرَ [explained below], because, by reason of the quickness of its revolving, or spinning, it seems as though it were at rest: and تَدْوَامٌ is like تَدْوِيمٌ: some, however, say that تَدْوِيمُ الكَلْبِ signifies the dog's going far in flight: (S:) AHeyth says that, accord. to As, التَّدْوِيمُ is only the act of a bird in the sky: (T, TA:) AAF says that, accord. to some, التَّدْوِيمُ is in the sky, and التَّدْوِيَةُ is on the earth, or ground; but accord. to others, the reverse is the case; and this, he says, is the truth in his opinion. (M, TA. [See also دَوَّىَ in art. دوى.]) ― -b4- You say also, دَوَّمَتِ, الشَّمْسُ, (M, K,) or دوّمت الشمس فى السَّمَاءِ, (T,) or فِىكَبِدِ السَّمَاآءِ, (S,) i. e. دَارَتْ فِى السَّمَاآءِ [or دارت فى كبد السماء, lit. (tropical:) The sun spun in the sky, or in the middle of the sky; meaning, was as though it were spinning ]; (T, M, K;) or was as though it were motionless [&c.]: (T, S:) and hence is [said to be] derived the word ↓ دُوَّامَةٌ applied to the boy's revolving, or spinning, thing. (T.) Dhu-r-Rummeh says, (describing the [insect called] جُنْدَب, [generally said to be a species of locust,] TA in art. رمض) مَعْرَوْرِيًا رَمَضَ الرَّضْرَاضِ يَرْكُضُهُ وَالشَّمْسُ حَيْرَى لَهَا فِى الجَوِّ تَدْوِيمُ (T, * S, TA) i. e. Venturing upon the [vehement] heat of the pebbles, [meaning the vehemently-hot pebbles,] striking them with its foot, for so the جندب does, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) when the sun is [apparently] stationary in the summer midday, [as though perplexed in its course,] as though having a spinning [in the region between heaven and earth ]: (T, TA:) or as though it were motionless. (S.) ― -b5- And one says, دَوَّمَتْ عَيْنُهُ (assumed tropical:) [ His eye rolled; i. e.] the black of his eye revolved as though it were in the whirl of a spindle. (IAar, M, K.) -A2- [دوّم is also trans.] You say, دوّم الدُّوَّامَةَ, (M, K,) inf. n. تَدْوِيمٌ, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) He made the دوّامة [ or top ] to revolve, or spin [so as to seem to be at rest, as has been shown above]: (M, K:) or he played with the دوّامة. (TA.) ― -b2- And دوّمت الخَمْرُ شَارِبَهَا (tropical:) The wine intoxicated its drinker so as to make him turn round about. (As, S, TA.) ― -b3- And دَوَّمُوا العَمَائِمَ (assumed tropical:) They wound the turbans around their heads. (TA.) ― -b4- And دوّم المَرَقَةَ (assumed tropical:) He put much grease into the broth so that it swam round upon it. (M, K.) ― -b5- التَّدْوِيمُ [or app. تَدْوِيمُ اللِّسَانِ] also signifies (assumed tropical:) The mumbling the tongue, and rolling it about in the mouth, in order that the saliva may not dry up: so says Fr. (S, TA.) ― -b6- [Hence, app., as the context seems to indicate,] Dhu-r-Rummeh says, describing a camel braying in his شِقْشِقَة [or faucial bag], دَوَّمَ فِيهَا رِزَّهُ وَ أَرْعَدَا [as though meaning (assumed tropical:) He made his braying to roll, or rumble, in it, and threatened ]. (Fr, S, TA.) ― -b7- And دوّم signifies (tropical:) He moistened a thing. (S, M, K.) Ibn-Ahmar says, وَقَدْ يُدَوِّمُ رِيقَ الطَّامِعِ الأَمَلُ (S, M;) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [ And hope sometimes, or often, ] moistens the saliva [ of the eager ]: (S:) he is praising En-Noamán Ibn-Besheer, and means that his hope moistens his saliva in his mouth by making his eulogy to continue. (IB.) ― -b8- (tropical:) He mixed, or moistened, or steeped, (دَافَ,) saffron, (Lth, T, S, M, K, TA,) and stirred it round in doing so: (Lth, T, TA:) he dissolved saffron in water, and stirred it round therein. (A, TA.) ― -b9- دوّم القِدْرَ, and ↓ ادامها, (S, M, K,) He stilled the boiling of the cooking-pot by means of some [ cold ] water: (S:) or he sprinkled cold water upon [ the contents of ] the cooking-pot to still its boiling: (M, K:) or the former, (K,) or both, (M,) he allayed the boiling of the cooking-pot by means of something, (M, K,) and stilled it: (M:) and the latter signifies he left the cooking-pot upon the أَثَافِى [or three stones that supported it ], after it had been emptied, (Lh, M, K,) not putting it down nor kindling a fire beneath it. (Lh, M.)

4 ادامهُ أدام أدامه أدامة اـدام اـدامه اـدامة ادامه ادامة , (inf. n. اـِدَامَةٌ, TA,) trans. of دَامَ; (S, M, * Msb, K; *) [i. e.] i. q. جَعَلَهُ دَائِمًا [ He made it to continue, last, endure, or remain: to be extended, or prolonged: to continue, last, endure, or remain, long: and to continue, last, or exist, incessantly, always, endlessly, or for ever; to be permanent, perpetual, or everlasting ]: (TK:) he did it continually, or perpetually: (MA:) he had it continually, or perpetually. (MA, KL.) [Accord. to Golius, followed in this case by Freytag, ↓ تداوم signifies Perennitate donavit; a signification app. given by Golius as on the authority of the KL; but not in my copy of that work.] ― -b2- ادام القِدْرَ: see 2, last sentence. ― -b3- ادام الدَّلْوَ (assumed tropical:) He filled the bucket. (K, TA.) ― -b4- الاـِدَامَةٌ also signifies تَنْقِيرُ السَّهْمِ عَلَى الاـِبْهَامِ [i. e. The trying the sonorific quality of the arrow by turning it round upon the thumb: or, as explained in this art. in the TK, the making the arrow to produce a sharp sound upon the thumb: or rather this or the former is the meaning of اـِدَامَةُ السَّهْمِ; for, as is said in the TK, ادام السَّهْمَ signifies نقره على الابهام (i. e. نقّرهُ)]. (T, K.) -A2- ادامت السَّمَاآءُ: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in two places. ― -b2- أُدِيمَ بِهِ: see 1, last sentence but one.

10 استدام استدام ٱستدام : see 1. ― -b2- And see also 2. ― -b3- And اُسْتُدِيمَ: see 1, last sentence but one. -A2- As a trans. v., (T,) i. q. اِنْتَظَرَ, (Sb, T, TA,) as also ↓ تدوّم, (K, [or this may perhaps be used only without an objective complement expressed,]) and رَقَبَ, (T,) or تَرَقَّبَ: (Sh, TA:) you say, اِسْتَدِمْ كَذَا, meaning اِنْتَظِرْهُ and اُرْقُبْهُ (assumed tropical:) [ Look thou for, expect, await, wait for, or watch for, such a thing. ] (T.) [When no objective complement is expressed, it seems to mean (assumed tropical:) He paused, and acted with deliberation, or in a patient or leisurely manner, or he waited in expectation; app. from the same verb as syn. with دَوَّمَ; and thus, like one who hovers about a thing: see حَوَّمَ; and see also اِنْتَظَرَ.] And استدامهُ (tropical:) He acted with moderation, gently, deliberately, or leisurely, in it; (S, M, K, TA;) namely, an affair, or a case: (S:) or he sought, desired, asked, or demanded, its continuance, or long continuance, or endless continuance: and so ↓ داومهُ (M, K, TA) in both of these senses: (K, TA:) or he asked him to render a thing continual &c.: (Mgh, Msb, TA:) and also (assumed tropical:) he acted gently and deliberately in it; namely, an affair, or a case: (Msb:) and (assumed tropical:) he acted gently with him; (Fr, T in art. ديم, M, Msb, Kt;) i. e., another person, (Msb,) or his creditor; as also اِسْتَدْمَاهُ, (Fr, T, M, K,) which we judge to be formed from the former by transposition, because we do not find it [in this sense] to have any inf. n. (M.) A poet says, (T, S, Msb,) namely, Keys Ibn-Zuheyr, (S,) فَلَا تَعْجَلْ بِأَمْرِكَ وَا@سْتَدِمْهُ ↓ فَمَا صَلَّى عَصَاكَ كَمُسْتَدِيمِ (T, S, Msb,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [ Therefore haste not in thine affair, but act with moderation, gently, deliberately, or leisurely, therein ]; for no one has straightened thy staff by turning it round over the fire, (T,) meaning, no one has managed thine affair soundly, like one who acts with moderation, &c. (T, Msb.) And another says, (S,) namely, Mejnoon, (TA,) وَاـِنَّى عَلَى لَيْلَى لَزَارٍ وَاـِنَّنِى عَلَىذَاكَ فِيمَا بَيْنَنَا أَسْتَدِيمُهَا meaning (assumed tropical:) [ And verily I am blaming Leylà; and verily, notwithstanding that, ] I look for her aiding me by good conduct [ in the matter that is between us ]. (S.) You say also, أَسْتَدِيمُ ا@للّٰهَ نِعْمَتَكَ I seek, or desire, or ask, of God the continuance, or long continuance, or endless continuance, of thy favour, or the like. (Mgh, TA. *) And أَسْتَدِيمُ ا@للّٰهَ عِزَّكَ I ask God to continue, or continue long, &c., thy might, or power, &c. (Msb.) The phrase استدام لُبْسَ الثَّوْبِ, meaning [ He continued long the wearing of the garment, or] he did not hasten to pull off the garment, may be from the saying اِسْتَدَمْتُ عَاقِبَةَ الأَمْرِ, meaning I looked, or watched, or waited, for the end, or issue, or result, of the affair, or case. (Msb.) -A3- Also He (a man) stooped his head, blood dropping from it: formed by transposition from اِسْتَدْمَى (Kr, TA.)

دَامٌ دام دامي for دَائِمٌ: see the latter word.

دَوْمٌ دوم an inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (S, M, Msb, K.) — [Hence,] مَا زَالَتِ السَّمَاآءُ دَوْمًا دَوْمًا The sky ceased not to rain [ in the manner of the rain termed دِيمَة]; and so ↓ دَيْمًا دَيْمًا; (M, K; [in the CK, erroneously, دِيْمًا دِيْمًا;]) in which the ى is interchangeable with the و; (M;) mentioned by AHn, on the authority of Fr.

Arab., ” p. cxxvi.,) Borassus flabelliformis; a name applied (after him) by Sonnini to the Theban palm; but now generally used by botanists to designate another species of fan-palm:] the tree of the مُقْل; (S, M, Msb, K;) a well-known kind of tree, of which the fruit is [ called ] the مُقْل: (TA:) n. un. with ة: AHn says that the دَوْمَة [is a tree that ] becomes thick and tall, and has [ leaves of the kind termed ] خُوص, like the خوص of the date-palm, and racemes like the racemes of a date-palm. (M, TA.) Accord. to Aboo-Ziyád El-Aarábee, (AHn, M,) The نَبِق [which properly signifies the fruit of the سِدْر, but here app. means, as it does in the present day, the tree called سِدْر, a species of lote-tree, called by Linn. rhamnus spina Christi, and by Forskal rhamnus nabeca, ] is also thus called, (AHn, M, K,) by some of the Arabs: accord. to 'Omárah, great [ trees of the kind termed ] سِدْر: (AHn, M:) and, (M, K,) accord. to IAar, (M,) big trees of any kind. (M, K.) [See also دَوْمَةٌ, below.]

(TA.) ― -b3- [Golius also explains it, as on the authority of the K, as meaning “ Ebriosa mulier; ” and Freytag, as meaning “ mulier vinum vendens: ” both are wrong: it is mentioned in the K as the name of a woman who sold wine.]
