Lane's Lexicon (Edward Lane, 1863)

غَامِرٌ ذ Much, or abundant: applied in this sense to property. (Ham p. 593.) [See also غَمْرٌ.] -A2- [ In a state of immersion; immerged. (See أَتَانٌ; and see also a verse cited voce أَنْ, p. 106, first col.)] ― -b2- And [hence, perhaps,] غَامِرَةٌ signifies Palm-trees (نَخْلٌ) not requiring irrigation: (AHn, K:) but Az did not find this to be known. (TA.) [See also مُغْتَمِرٌ.] ― -b3- Applied to land, (S, Msb, TA,) and to a house, (TA,) [but written with ة when أَرْضٌ is mentioned, or دَارٌ,] it signifies the Contr. of عَامِرٌ; (S, TA;) and thus, (TA,) waste; desolate; in a state the contrary of flourishing; in a state of ruin; syn. خَرَابٌ: (Msb, K, TA:) [land to which this term is applied is thus called] because overflowed by water, so that it cannot be sown; or because it is covered with sand or dust; or because water generally exudes from it, so that it produces only reeds and the بَرْدِىّ [i. e. papyrus or other rushes]: by غَامِرٌ is meant ذُو غَمْرٍ; like as one says هَمٌّ نَاصِبٌ, meaning ذُو نَصَبٍ: (TA:) or any land that is not tilled (لَمْ يُسْتَخْرَجْ) so as to be fit for sowing (K, TA) and planting: (TA:) or land that is unsown, but capable of being sown: so called because the water reaches it and comes over it: of the measure فَاعِلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ; (S, Msb;) like the epithets in سِرٌّ كَاتِمٌ and مَاآءٌ دَافِقٌ; and made of the measure فال only to correspond to عَامِرٌ as its opposite: (S, TA:) waste land which water does not reach is not called غَامِرٌ; (S;) but such is called قَفْرٌ. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., [which shows that the last two explanations given above are correct,] that 'Omar imposed a tax of a دِرْهَم and a قَفِيز upon every جَرِيب [of land], both عَامِر and غَامِر: and this he did in order that the people might not be remiss in sowing. (Az, TA.)

أَغْمَرُ ذ [ More, or most, abundant, copious, or deep: applied to water. ― -b2- ] More, or most surpassing, or excelling: so in the saying, هُوَ أَغْمَرُهُمْ بِطُولِ قَوَامِهِ He is the most surpassing of them by the tallness of his stature. (TA.)

(Ham p. 338.) Applied to a courageous man as meaning (assumed tropical:) One who incurs the rigours, or pangs, of death. (TA.) And (assumed tropical:) One who contends in an altercation, or a dispute: or who enters into the main part [or the thick or thickest ] of an altercation or a dispute: and some say that it is from الغِمْرُ, and means regarding, and regarded, with rancour, malevolence, malice, or spite. (TA.)

مُغْتَمِرٌ ذ Palm-trees (نَخْلٌ) imbibing water from a copious source. (AHn, K.) [See also غَامِرَةٌ, voce غَامِرٌ.] ― -b2- And (assumed tropical:) A drunken man: (Sgh, K, TA:) as though intoxication had drowned his reason. (TA.) -A2- See also مُغَمَّرٌ.

1 غَمَزَهُ ذ , (S, A, K,) or غَمَزَهُ بِيَدِهِ, (Msb,) aor. غَمِزَ , (Msb, K,) inf. n. غَمْزٌ, (TA,) He felt him, (namely, a ram,) to know if he were fat: (S, A, Msb, K:) and غَمَزَهَا he put his hand upon her (a camel's) back, to see how fat she was.

(TA.) So in a trad. of 'Omar: دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَعِنْدَهُ غُلَيْمٌ يَغْمِزُ ظَهْرَهُ [ He went in to him, and with him was a little boy pressing, or squeezing, or kneading, his back ]. (TA.) And in a trad. respecting the ablution termed الغُسْل, it is said, اِغْمِزِى قُرُونَكِ, meaning Press thou, or squeeze thou, the locks of thy hair, in washing. (TA.) You also say, غَمَزَ الثِّقَافُ القَنَاةَ The straightening-instrument pinched and pressed the spear. (A, * Mgh, TA. *) A poet (namely Ziyád El-Aajam, TA) says, وَكُنْتُ اـِذَا غَمَزْتُ قَنَاةَ قَوْمٍ كَسَرْتُ كُعُوبَهَا أَوْ تَسْتَقِيمَا [ And I used, when I pinched and pressed the spear of a people, to break its knots, or internodal portions, unless it became straight ]. (S, TA. It is a prov., respecting which see remarks in art. او.) -A2- غَمَزَ, (A, Msb,) and غَمَزَهُ, (S, Mgh, K,) aor. غَمِزَ , (Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. غَمْزٌ, (Msb, TA,) (tropical:) He made a sign, (A, Msb,) and he made a sign to him, (Mgh, K, *) with the eye, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) or eyebrow, (A, Mgh, Msb, K,) or eyelid [by winking]. (K.) So in the saying, in a trad., غَمَزَنِى عَلِىٌّ أَنْ قُلْ نَعَمْ (tropical:) '4 lee made a sign to me with the eye, or eyebrow, meaning, Say thou Yes. (Mgh.) The people of the West say, غَمَزَهُ فُلَانٌ بِفُلَانٍ, meaning, (tropical:) Such a one blinked towards such a one, to instigate him against him, or in order that he should have recourse to him for protection or the like, or seek aid of him. (Mgh.) ― -b2- Hence, الغَمْزُ بِالنَّاسِ: (S:) you say, غَمَزَ بِالرَّجُلِ, aor. غَمِزَ , (K,) inf. n. غَمْزٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) He calumniated, or slandered, the man. (K.) [See also 4.] ― -b3- You say also, غُمِزَتْ شَهَادَتَهُ [(assumed tropical:) His testimony was suspected (see مَغْمُوزٌ), or impugned ]. (TA in art. زور.) -A3- غَمَزَتِ الدَّابَّةُ, (K,) or غَمَزَ فِى مَشْيِهِ, (Msb,) or مِنْ رِجْلِهِ, (S,) aor. غَمِزَ , (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. غَمْزٌ, (S, Msb,) (assumed tropical:) The beast limped, or it halted, with its hind leg; had a slight lameness thereof: (K, * TA:) or he had what resembled عَرَج [or natural lameness ] in his gait: (Msb:) or, as IKtt says, غَمَزَتِ الدَّابَّةُ بِرِجْلِهَا the beast gave an indication of a limping, or halting, or slight lameness, in its hind leg: whence it appears that this signification may be tropical. (TA.) -A4- غَمَزَ said of a disease, or of a vice, or fault, of a man, It appeared. (AA, K.) -A5- See also 4.

3 غَاْمَزَ [This verb is mentioned by Golius as syn. with عايب, a verb for which I find no authority: and Freytag renders it “ Vitii arguit, ” and refers to a passage in Har (p. 427 of the see. ed.) where (like as is done by Golius) المُغامِز and المُعايِب, as syn., are erroneously put for المَغامِز and المَعايِب.]

4 أَغْمَزَتْ ذ She (a camel) had fat, (O, K,) or a little fat, (ISd, IKtt, TA,) in her hump. (ISd, IKtt, O, K.) Hence the epithet ↓ غَمُوزٌ, applied to her. (TA.) -A2- اغمز فِى فُلَانٍ (tropical:) He blamed, or found fault with, such a one; attributed or imputed to him, or charged him with, or accused him of, a vice, or fault; (S, IKtt, K, TA;) deemed him weak; (TA;) lessened his rank, or dignity: (S, IKtt, K, * TA:) he found in him that for which he should be deemed weak: (A, TA:) and ↓ اغتمزهُ he impugned his character; blamed him; censured him; or spoke against him. (K.) You say, فُلَانٌ ↓ فَعَلْتُ شَيْئًا فا@غْتَمَزَهُ (tropical:) I did a thing, and such a one impugned my character, or found in it that by which my character was impugned. (S, TA.) And سَمِعَ مِنِّى كَلِمَةً فِى عَقْلِهِ ↓ فَا@غْتَمَزَهَا (tropical:) He heard from me a saying, and deemed it weak: (A, TA:) and in like manner, أَغْمَزَ فِيهَا found in it that for which it was to be deemed weak. (TA.) -A3- أَغْمَزَنِى الحَرُّ (tropical:) The heat remitted, or abated, to me, so that I became emboldened to encounter it, and went upon the road: (AA, ISk, S, IKtt, K, * TA:) Az says ↓ غَمَزَنِى الحَرُّ, on the authority of AA: (TA:) and AA mentioned اغمرنى الحرّ in this sense, but afterwards doubted, and said, I think that it is with زاى. (TA in art. غمر.) ― -b2- And أَغْمَزَ (assumed tropical:) He (a man) became gentle, so that others were emboldened against him. (IKtt, TA.) -A4- And أَغْمَزَ [for which أَغْمَزَه is erroneously put in the CK] He acquired cattle such as are termed غَمَز [q. v.]: (O, K, TA:) like أَقْمَزَ. (O.)

5 تَغَمَّزَ [This verb is said by Freytag to have a signification belonging to تَغَمَّرَ.]

6 تغامزوا ذ They made signs, one to another, with their eyes, (S, A, K, B,) or with the eyebrow, (A,) or hand, indicating something blameable or faulty. (B.) In this sense it is expl. as used in the Kur lxxxiii. 30. (S, B.)

غَمُوزٌ ذ A she-camel of which one doubts whether she be fat or not and therefore feels the hump: (A'Obeyd, S, K:) pl. غُمْزٌ [or غُمُزٌ, or both?]. (TA.) See 4, first sentence.

غَمِيزٌ ذ : see the next paragraph, in two places.

غَمِيزَةٌ ذ (tropical:) A thing for which one's character is to be impugned; for which one is to be blamed, censured, or spoken against; a vice, or fault; (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ غَمِيزٌ (TA) and ↓ مَغْمَزٌ (S, A, Mgh, K) or ↓ مَغْمَزَةٌ: (Msb:) and weakness in work, and impotence of mind, (TA,) and ignorance: (T, TA:) the pl. of ↓ مَغْمَزٌ is مَغَامِزُ, (TA,) syn. with مَعَايِبُ. (S.) You say, لَيْسَ فِيهِ غَمِيزَةٌ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) and ↓ غَمِيزٌ, (TA,) and ↓ مَغْمَزٌ, (A, Mgh, K,) or ↓ مَغْمَزَةٌ, (Msb,) (tropical:) There is not in him anything for which his character is to be impugned; or for which he is to be blamed; &c.: (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K:) or there is not in it anything for which it is to be coveted: (K:) or ↓ مَا فِيهِ مَغْمَزٌ has both of the above-mentioned significations.

غَامِزٌ ذ [meaning Limping, or halting, &c., and having a limping, or halting, &c.,] is like ظَالِعٌ: sometimes used as a possessive noun; and [therefore] one does not say غَامِزَةٌ. (O and TA in art. ظلع.)

مَغْمَزٌ ذ [should by rule be مَغْمِزٌ: its primary signification is A place of feeling, to know if an animal be fat: hence, a place of pressing or squeezing a limb &c.: and a place of pinching and pressing a spear, to straighten it]. ― -b2- نُكْتَةٌ لَامَغْمَزَ لِقَنَاتِهَا وَلَا مَقْرَعَ لِصَفَاتِهَا (tropical:) [lit.
