(S, O.) -A2- See also فَلٌّ, first quarter. -A3- Also, and ↓ فَلِيلَةٌ, a quantity of hair collected together: (S, M, O, K:) the two words are either of the class of سَلٌّ and سَلَّةٌ [which are exactly syn., each with the other,] or are an instance of the pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] that does not differ from its sing. [or n. un.] except in [its not having] the [affix] ة: (M:) in one instance, occurring in a trad., the latter is said to signify a كُبَّة [or portion convolved, or glomerated, or formed into a ball ] of hair, or, as Z says, app. of [ the silk called ] دِمَقْس: the pl. [of either] is فَلَائِلُ. (TA.) Hence, (O,) ↓ فَلِيلَةٌ signifies also The mane of the lion. (O, TA.) In the saying of Sá'ideh Ibn-Ju-eiyeh, وَغُودِرَ ثَاوِيًا وَتَأَوَّبَتْهُ مُذَرَّعَةٌ أُمَيْمَ لَهَا فَلِيلُ [ And he was left remaining, and a hyena having stripes upon its arms, (thus مُذَرَّعَةٌ as used in this verse is expl. in the TA in art. ذدع, q. v.,) a young mother, (أُمَيْمَ being an instance of تَرْخِيم, used by poetic license, for أُمَيْمَةُ, a dim. of أُمٌّ,) and therefore unusually fierce, having a mane, or having convolved, or glomerated, hair, came to him at night, or in the beginning of the night ], the last word is expl. by Suh, in the R, as meaning the عَرْف [so in my original, an obvious mistranscription for عُرْف, with damm]; but by Skr as meaning شَعَر مَكْبُوب.

Pepper; ] a sort of berry, (حَبٌّ, S, O, K,) brought from India, (O, K, *) well known, (S, M, O,) not growing in the land of the Arabs, but often mentioned in their language: AHn was informed by one who had seen it that its tree is just like the pomegranate; (M, TA;) but Dáwood the hakeem adds that it is taller; (TA;) between the pair of leaves thereof are two fruit-stalks, regularly disposed, each fruitstalk of the length of the finger; and it is green, and is then plucked, and spread in the shade, and becomes black and shrivelled; and it [ the tree ] has thorns, like those of the pomegranate: when it [i. e. the fruit ] is fresh and moist, it is preserved with water and salt until it becomes mature, when it is eaten like as preserved herbs are eaten upon the tables of food, and it is a digestive: the n. un. is ↓ فُلْفُلَةٌ [app. meaning a peppercorn, like حَبَّةُ فُلْفُلٍ: and حَبُّ فُلْفُلٍ means peppercorns, collectively]: (M, TA:) Dáwood says, in the “ Tedhkireh, ” that its leaves are thin, red next the tree and green in the other direction, and its wood is lank and soft: and it is white and black: (TA:) the white is the better.

PلPل دراز [i. e. PُلْPِلدَرَاز, the latter of which words signifies “ long ”]: (TA:) it increases the venereal faculty, causes the food to digest; removes colic, (K, TA,) and flatulence; (TA;) and is beneficial as a remedy against the bite, or sting, of venomous reptiles, applied as a liniment, with oil. (K, TA.) ― -b3- فُلْفُلٌ is also a name sometimes applied to The fruit of the بَرْوَق [q. v., in art. برق]; likening it to the فُلْفُلٌ mentioned before [i. e. to peppercorns]: he who pronounces it, when thus applied, ↓ فِلْفِلٌ errs; for this signifies the fruit of certain trees of the [ kind called ] عِضَاه; and the people of El-Yemen call thus [particularly] the fruit of the [ species of عِضَاه. termed ] غَاف [q. v.]. (M.) ― -b4- فُلْفُلُ المَاآءِ is the name of A certain plant growing in the neighbourhood of water, lank, soft, or smooth, in the leaves, having berries (حَبِّ) in bunches. (TA.) ― -b5- فُلْفُلُ القُرُودِ is The same as حبّ الليم [but what this is I do not find]. (TA.) ― -b6- فُلْفُلُ الصَّقَالِبَةِ is What is called [ in Pers. ] فنجنكشت [i. e. فَنْجَنْكُشْت: see الفَقْدُ].
