5 تجدّد أجد جد جدد تجدد [originally It became cut, or cut off. ― -b2- And hence,] It (an udder) lost, or became devoid of, its milk: (S, K:) and [in like manner] ↓ جُدَّ, aor. يُجَدُّ, inf. n. جَدَدٌ, it, (a breast, and an udder,) became dry. (A Heyth, TA.) ― -b3- Hence also, [ It was newly made; as though newly cut off from the web; ] said of a garment: (TA:) and it (a thing, S, A) became new: (S, A, K:) and it (a thing, or an affair,) originated; was originated, or innovated; or was done newly, or for the first time: and sometimes ↓ استجدّ is used intransitively [in the same senses]. (Msb.) [Also (assumed tropical:) It (an action, as, for instance, ablution, and a compact, or the like,) was renewed. See جَدَّدَ as syn. with أَجَدَّ.]

10 اـِسْتَجْدَ3َ see 4, in two places: -A2- and see also 5.

جَدٌّ جد Fortune, or particularly good fortune, syn. حَظٌّ, (S, A, Mgh, L, K,) and بَخْتٌ, (S, A, L, K,) in the world, or in wordly circumstances; (TA;) advance in the world, or in worldly circumstances: (Mgh:) pl. [of mult.] جُدُودٌ (S) and [of pauc.] أَجْدَادٌ and أَجُدٌّ. (TA.) You say, فُلَانٌ ذُو جَدٍّ فِى كَذَا Such a one is possessed of good fortune in such a thing. (L.) And it is said in a trad. respecting the day of resurrection, وَاـِذَا أَصْحَابُ الجَدِّ مَحْبُوسُونَ And lo, the people who were possessed of good fortune and riches in the world were imprisoned. (L.) And in a prayer, (L,) لَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الجَدِّ مِنْكَ الجَدُّ The good worldly fortune of him who is possessed of such fortune will not profit him, (Mgh, L,) in the world to come, (L,) in lieu of Thee; (Mgh, L; *) i. e., of obedience to Thee: (Mgh, and Mughnee in art. مِنْ:) or in lieu of the good fortune that cometh from Thee: or, as some say, will not defend him from Thee. (Mughnee ubi suprà. [See also another explanation below.]) Hence, أَجَدَّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ [or أَجَدِّكَ]; and, accord. to some, وَجَدِّكَ: see جِدٌّ. ― -b2- One's lot in life; and the means of subsistence that one receives from the bounty of God. (L, K.) One says, لِفُلَانٍ فِى هٰذَا الأَمْرِ جَدٌّ Such a one has in this thing, or state of affairs, means of subsistence. (A'Obeyd, L.) ― -b3- Richness; competence, or sufficiency; or the state of being in no need, or of having no wants, or of having few wants. (S, L, Msb.) لا ينفع ذا الجدّ منك الجدّ, [explained above, is said to mean] Riches, &c., will not profit the possessor thereof with Thee; for nothing will profit him but acting in obedience to Thee: منك here signifies عِنْدَكَ. (S, Msb.) ― -b4- Greatness, or majesty; (Mujáhid, S, Mgh, Msb, K;) accord. to some, specially of God: (TA:) so in the Kur lxxii. 3: (S, TA:) or his freedom from all wants or the like; syn. غِنًى. (S.) Hence, تَعَالَى جَدُّكَ, (Mgh, TA,) in a trad. respecting prayer, (TA,) Exalted be thy greatness, or majesty. (Mgh, * TA.) ― -b5- See also أَجَدَّكَ, as an interrogative phrase, voce جِدٌّ. -A2- Also, (S, K,) and ↓ مَجْدُودٌ, (S, A, Mgh, K,) and ↓ جَدِيدٌ, (S, Msb, K,) and ↓ جَدِّيٌّ, (S,) and ↓ جُدٌّ, and ↓ جُدِّيٌّ, the last two with damm, (K,) applied to a man, Fortunate; or possessed of good fortune; (S, A, Mgh, Msb;) or possessed of good worldly fortune: (TA:) or possessing great fortune, or great good fortune: (K:) [the words here given from the S are there coupled with synonyms of the same form, thus; ↓ جَدِيدٌ حَظِيظٌ, and مَحْظُوظٌ ↓ مَجْدُودق, and جَدٌّ حَظُّ, and حَظِّىٌّ ↓ جَدِّيٌّ; on the authority of ISk:] ↓ جُدٌّ, with damm, as an epithet applied to a man, is said by Sb to be syn. with مَجْدُودٌ; and its pl. is جُدٌّونَ only. (L.) -A3- Also جَدُّ, A grandfather; the father's father, and the mother's father: (S, Msb, K:) and (assumed tropical:) a higher ascendant; an ancestor: (Msb:) and ↓ جَدَّةٌ a grandmother; the father's mother, and the mother's mother: (K:) [and (assumed tropical:) a female ancestor: ] pl. of the former, أَجْدَادٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and جُدُودٌ and جُدُودَةٌ: (K:) and of the latter, جَدَّاتٌ. (TA.) Hence, accord. to some, وَجَدِّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ: see جِدٌّ. -A4- See also جُدَّةٌ: ― -b2- and see جَدِيدٌ.

جُدٌّ جد : see جَدٌّ, in two places. -A2- See also جُدَّةٌ. ― -b2- Also The side (جَانِب) of anything. (K.) -A3- And A well in a place where is much herbage, or pasture: (S, Msb, K:) a well abounding with water; (K;) [and] so ↓ جُدْجُدٌ; (KL;) but A'Obeyd says that this is not known: (L:) and, contr., a well containing little water: a scanty water, or water little in quantity: a water at the extremity of a [ desert such as is called ] فَلَاة: (K:) an old water: (Th, K:) an old well: (KL:) pl. (in all these senses, TA) أَجْدَادٌ. (Msb, TA.)

جِدٌّ جد [accord. to some an inf. n., but accord. to others a simple subst., (see جَدَّ,)] Seriousness, or earnestness, contr. of هَزْلٌ, (S, A, Msb, K,) in speech. (Msb.) Hence, ثَلَاثٌ جِدُّهُنَّ جِدٌّ وَهَزْلُهُنَّ جِدٌّ [There are three things in relation to which what is serious is serious and what is jesting is serious ]: a saying of Mohammad, whereby he forbade a man's divorcing and emancipating and marrying and then retracting, saying “ I was jesting; ” as was customary in the time of paganism. (Msb.) أَجِدَّكَ and ↓ أَجَدَّكَ signify the same; (S;) but the former is the more chaste; (TA;) جِدّ and جَدّ being thus used only as prefixed nouns: (S, K:) As says that the meaning is, أَبِجِدٍّ مِنْكَ هٰذَا [ Does this proceed from thee in seriousness, or in earnest? ]; and that جِدّ is put in the accus. case because of the rejection of the [prep.] ب: AA says that the meaning is, مَا لَكَ أَجِدًّا مِنْكَ [ What aileth thee? Doth it proceed from thee in seriousness, or in earnest? ]; and that جدّ is put in the accus. case as an inf. n.: Th says that the phrase as it occurs in poetry is أَجِدَّكَ, with kesr: (S:) but when it occurs with وَ [in the place of أَ, or with أَ in the sense of وَ, as a particle denoting an oath,] it is ↓ وَجَدِّكَ [or أَجَدِّكَ], with fet-h: (S, K:) yon say, وَجَدِّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ, (K, in the CK وَجَدَّكَ,) meaning, By thy grandfather, do not [such a thing]: or by thy fortune, or good fortune, do not: (TA:) also, when you say, أَجِدَّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ, [or أَجِدِّكَ, for أَ (q. v.) is substituted for a particle of swearing, as in أَللّٰهِ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ,] the meaning is, I adjure thee by thy truth, (Lth, K,) and by thy seriousness, or earnestness, (Lth, TA,) do not: and when you say, لَا تَفْعَلْ ↓ أَجَدَّكَ, [or أَجَدِّكَ,] the meaning is, I adjure thee by thy fortune, or good fortune, do not: (Lth, K:) Aboo- 'Alee Esh-Shalowbeenee asserts that it implies the signification of an oath. (MF.) In the phrase اجدّك لا تَفْعَلُ, AAF says, we may consider لا تفعل as put in the place of a denotative of state; or the phrase may be originally اجدّك أَنْ لَا تَفْعَلَ, ان being suppressed, and its government annulled: [therefore it may be rendered, in the former case, Is it with seriousness on thy part, thou doing such a thing? and in the latter case, Is it with seriousness on thy part that thou will not do such a thing? i. e. dost thou mean seriously that thou will not do it? or in this case, اجدّك may be used as a form of adjuration in one of the senses explained above, and لَا تَفْعَلُ may mean, that thou do not such a thing; or اجدّك may mean وَجَدَّكَ, (explained above, and so in the three exs. below,) and لَا تَفْعَلُ, thou wilt not do it:] and, as AHei says, there is here a nice point, which is this; that the noun [meaning the pronoun] to which جدّ is prefixed should agree in person with the verb which follows it; so that one should say, اجدِّى لَا أُكْرِمُكَ, and اجدّكَ لَا تَفْعَلُ, and اجدّهُ لَا يَزُورُنَا; because جدّ is an inf. n. corroborating the proposition that follows it. (MF.) ― -b2- Also, [and in this case, likewise, accord. to some an inf. n., but accord. to others a simple subst., (see, again, جَدَّ,)] A striving, labour, or toil; exertion of one's self, or of one's power or efforts or endeavours or ability; vigorousness, strenuousness, laboriousness, diligence, studiousness, sedulousness, earnestness, or energy; painstaking, or extraordinary painstaking; (S, L, Msb, K;) in affairs, (S,) or in an affair. (Msb, K.) Hence, جِدًّا [meaning In a great, or an extraordinary, degree; greatly, much, exceedingly, or extraordinarily; very; very greatly, or very much; extremely ]; as in the phrase, (Msb,) فُلَانٌ مُحْسِنٌ جِدًّا [ Such a one is beneficent in a great, or an extraordinary, degree; very, exceedingly, or extremely, beneficent ]: you should not say جَدًّا. (S, Msb. * [In my copy of the Msb, it is محسن جدّا بالفتح: but the context shows that there is an omission here, and that, after جدّا, we should read, as in the S, وَلَا تَقُلْ جَدًّا.]) جِدًّا [in a phrase of this kind] is put in the accus. case as an inf. n. [of which the verb is understood; so that, in the ex. given above, the proper meaning is, يَجِدُّ فِى الاـِحْسَانِ جِدًّا striving in beneficence with a great striving ]; because it is not from the same root as the preceding word, nor is it identical with it [in meaning]. (L.) You say also, فِى هٰذَا خَطَرٌ جِدَّ عَظِيمٍ, meaning عَظِيمٌ جِدًّا [(assumed tropical:) In this is a very, or an extremely, great danger, or risk ]. (S.) And هٰذا العَالِمُ جِدَّ العَالِمِ This is the learned man, the extremely [or the very ] learned man. (L.) And هٰذَا عَالِمٌ جِدَّ عَالِمٍ This is a learned man, an extremely [or a very ] learned man. (L, * K.) ― -b3- Also (tropical:) Haste. (S, L, K, TA.) So in the phrase فُلَانٌ عَلَى جِدِّ أَمْرٍ (tropical:) Such a one is in haste in an affair. (S, L, TA.) -A2- Also Executed seriously, or in earnest, [ in which there is no jesting, ] and excessive; syn. مُحَقَّقٌ مُبَالَغٌ فِيهِ [meaning مُحَقَّقٌ فِيهِ وَمُبَالَغٌ فِيهِ; (see جَدَّ فِى أَمْرِهِ;) جِدٌّ thus used as an epithet having an intensive signification because it is originally an inf. n., or as some say, a simple subst.]: (L, K:) applied in this sense to a punishment: (L:) and also applied to a pace. (K in art. نص.) -A3- See also جُدَّةٌ: ― -b2- and see جَدِيدٌ.

جَدَّةٌ جد جده جدة : see جَدٌّ, near the end of the paragraph.

جُدَّةٌ جد جده جدة The bank, or side, or a river; as also جِدَّةٌ and ↓ جِدٌّ (IAth, L, K) and ↓ جُدٌّ (IAth, Mgh, L) and ↓ جَدٌّ, (Mgh, L, K,) accord. to some, but correctly جُدٌّ; so called because cut off from the river, or because cut by the water, in like manner as it is called سَاحِلٌ because it is abraded by the water: (Mgh:) or the part of a river that is near the land; as also ↓ جِدَّةٌ: (L:) and the shore of the sea: (MF:) accord. to As, جدّة is an arabicized word from the Nabathean كدّ. (L.) ― -b2- The stripe, or streak, that is on the back of the ass, differing from his general colour. (S, A, * K.) And (tropical:) A streak (Fr, S, K, TA) in anything, (TA,) as in a mountain, (Fr, S,) differing in colour from the rest of the mountain, (S,) white and black and red; (Fr, TA;) as also in the sky: (A, TA:) pl. جُدَدٌ, (Fr, S,) occurring in the Kur xxxv. 25; (S;) where some read جُدُدٌ, pl. of ↓ جديدة [app. جَدِيدَةٌ], which is syn. with جُدَّةٌ; and some, جَدَدٌ [q. v.]. (Bd.) ― -b3- A sign, or mark, syn. عَلَامَةٌ, (Th, K,) of, or in, anything. (Th, TA.) ― -b4- A beaten way, marked with lines [ cut by the feet of the men and beasts that have travelled along it ]: (Az, L:) or a road, or way: pl. جُدَدٌ: (Msb:) and جُدُودٌ, also, [app. another pl. of جُدَّةٌ,] signifies paths, or tracks, forming lines upon the ground. (Az, L.) See also جَادَّةٌ. ― -b5- [Hence, app., but accord. to the S from the same word as signifying “a streak,”] رَكِبَ جُدَّةً مِنَ الأَمْرِ, (S, A, TA,) or جُدَّةَ الأَمْرِ, (K,) (tropical:) He set upon a way, or manner, of performing the affair: (A:) or he formed an opinion respecting the affair, or case. (Zj, S, A, K.) ― -b6- See also جِدَّةٌ.

جِدَّةٌ جد جده جدة : see جُدَّةٌ, in two places: ― -b2- and see جَدِيدٌ. ― -b3- Also A rag; or piece torn off from a garment; and so ↓ جُدَّةٌ: thus in the saying, مَا عَلَيْهِ جِدَّةٌ and جُدَّةٌ [ There is not upon him a rag ]. (K.) ― -b4- A collar upon the neck of a dog: (Th, L, K:) pl. جُدَدٌ [like لُحًى pl. of لِحْيَةٌ, or perhaps a mistake for جِدَدٌ]. (L.)

جَدَدٌ جدد جديد Hard ground: (S:) or hard level ground: (Har p. 522:) [see also جَدْجَدٌ:] or rough level ground: (K:) or rough ground: or level ground: (TA:) or a level and spacious tract of land; a tract such as is called صَحْرَاآء, and such as is called فَضَاآء, containing no soft place in which the feet sink, nor any mountain, nor any [ hill such as is called ] أَكَمَة; sometimes wide, and sometimes of little width: (ISh:) [and] a conspicuous road: (Bd in xxxv. 25:) pl. أَجْدَادٌ. (ISh.) It is said in a prov., مَنْ سَلَكَ الجَدَدَ أَمِنَ العِثَارَ [ He who walks along hard, or hard and level, ground is secure from stumbling ]; (S, TA;) meaning, he who pursues the course marked out by common consent is secure from stumbling. (TA.) And مَكَانٌ جَدَدٌ occurs in a trad., meaning Level ground. (TA.) ― -b2- See also جَدِيدٌ. ― -b3- Also Sand that is thin, or fine, (K, TA,) and sloping down. (TA.) ― -b4- And A thing resembling a سِلْعَة [or ganglion ] in the neck of a camel. (K.)

جَدَادٌ جداد and ↓ جِدَادٌ The cutting off of the fruit of palm-trees. (S, * A, * L, Msb, * K. *) You say, هٰذَا زَمَنُ الجَدَادِ and الجِدَادِ [ This is the time, or season, of the cutting off of the fruit of the palmtrees ]. (S, A, Msb. *) Some say that جداد signifies particularly [as above,] the cutting off [of the fruit] of palm-trees; and جذاذ, the cutting off of all fruits, in a general sense: others say that they signify the same. (TA.) ― -b2- Also The time, or season, of the cutting off of the fruit of palm-trees. (S, * L.) You say جَدَادٌ and جِدَادٌ, like صَرَامٌ and صِرَامٌ, and قَطَافٌ and قِطَافٌ; (Ks, S;) whence it seems as though the measures فَعَالٌ and فِعَالٌ were uniformly applicable to every noun signifying the time of the action; such nouns being likened to أَوَانٌ and اـِوَانٌ. (S.)

جِدَادٌ جداد : see جَدَادٌ, and جَادٌّ.

جَدُودٌ جد جدود , (ISk, S, A, K,) or جَدُودَةٌ, (L,) Having little milk, (ISk, S,) or not from any imperfection; (L;) applied to a ewe, (ISk, S, K,) but not to a she-goat; the epithet مَصُورٌ being used in the latter case: (ISk, S:) or a ewe or she-goat having no milk; as also ↓ جَدَّاآءُ: (A:) pl. جَدَائِدُ (S, L) and جِدَادٌ. (L.) ― -b2- Also A fat she-ass: pl. جِدَادٌ. (AZ, K.)

جَدِيدٌ جديد , of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, [i. e. ↓ مَجْدُودٌ,] Cut, or cut off. (S, Msb.) A poet says, أَبِى حُبِّى سُلَيْمَى أَنْ يَبِيدَا وَأَمْسَى حَبْلُهَا خَلَقًا جَدِيدَا [ My love of Suleymà hath refused to perish; but her cord (i. e. her tie of affection to me) hath become worn out and cut ]: (S:) [as جديد signifies “new” more commonly than "cut,"] this verse appears as though it involved a contradiction. (MF.) ― -b2- Applied to a garment, or a piece of cloth [sufficient for a garment or the like], Newly cut off [ from the web ] by the weaver: (S, K:) and so (without ة, S) applied to a مِلْحَفَة; (S, A;) thus applied to a fem. n. because syn. with ↓ مَجْدُودَةٌ; (S, ISd;) or, accord. to Sb, because by ملحفة in this case is meant اـِزَار, and for a like reason in like cases; (Ham p. 555;) but one also says جَدِيدَةٌ; (ISd;) and accord. to some, جديد is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ, and therefore the ة is regularly affixed to it: (Ham ubi suprà:) the pl. is جُدُدٌ (Mbr, Th, S, A, K) and جُدَدٌ; (AZ, A'Obeyd, Mbr;) but the former is the more common. (TA.) ― -b3- And hence, (L,) applied to a garment, (L, TA,) or a thing, (S, Msb,) New; contr. of قَدِيمٌ, (Msb,) or contr. of خَلَقٌ; (S, L;) from جِدَّةٌ as contr. of بِلًى: (K:) pl. [of pauc.] أَجِدَّةٌ and [of mult.] جُدُدٌ and جُدَدٌ. (L.) You say, أَصْبَحَتْ خَلَقُهُمْ جُدُدًا, a phrase mentioned by Lh, meaning خُلْقَانُهُمْ جُدُدًا [i. e. Their old worn-out garments became replaced by new ]: or جُدُدًا may be here put for جَدِيدًا. (L.) ― -b4- And hence, (TA,) الجَدِيدَانِ and ↓ الأَجَدَّانِ The night and the day; (S, Msb, K;) because they never become impaired by time. (TA.) You say, لَا أَفْعَلُهُ مَا ا@خْتَلَفَ الجَدِيدَانِ and ↓ الأَجَدَّانِ [ I will not do it while the day and the night succeed each other ]: (S:) or مَا كَرَّ الجَدِيدَانِ and الأَجَدَّانِ [ while the day and the night return time after time: i. e., ever ]. (A.) ― -b5- Hence likewise, جَدِيدٌ also signifies A thing of which one has had no knowledge. (L.) ― -b6- And hence, (L,) الجَدِيدُ signifies Death: (K:) or is applied as an epithet to death, in the dial. of Hudheyl. (L.) Accord. to Akh and El-Mugháfis El-Báhilee, جَدِيدُ المَوْتِ means The commencement of death. (L.) -A2- Also The face, or surface, of the earth, or ground; [as though it were cut;] (S, K, TA;) and so ↓ جَدَدٌ, and ↓ جِدَّةٌ, and ↓ جَدٌّ, (K,) and ↓ جِدٌّ. (TA.) -A3- See also جَدٌّ, in two places.

جُدَادَةٌ جداده جدادة What is cut off from the roots, or eradicated, of, or from, palm-trees &c. (Lh, TA.)

جَدِيدَةٌ جديد جديده جديدة The kind of pad, or stuffed thing, (رِفَادَةٌ,) and the felt, stuck, or attached, beneath the two boards of a horse's saddle: there are two such things, called جَدِيدَتَانِ: (S:) or the جديدتان consist of the felt that is stuck, or attached, in the inner side of a horse's and of a camel's saddle: (L:) but جديدة thus applied is a post-classical word: the [classical] Arabs say جَدْيَةٌ, (S,) or, as in J's own handwriting, جَدِيَّةٌ. (So in the margin of a copy of the S.) -A2- See also جُدَّةٌ.

جَدِّىٌّ جد جدى جدي جديي : see جَدٌّ, in two places.

جُدِّىٌّ جد جدى جدي جديي : see جَدٌّ.

(S.) Accord. to IAar, A certain insect that clings to a skin, or hide, and eats it. (TA.) -A2- See also جُدٌّ.

جَادٌّ جاد act. part. n. of جَدَّ; (Mgh, L;) Cutting, or cutting off. (Mgh.) -A2- أَجَادُّ أَنْتَ أَمْ هَازِلٌ Art thou serious or jesting? (A.) It is said in a trad., لَا يَأْخُذَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ مَتَاعَ أَخِيهِ لَاعِبًا جَادًّا [ By no means shall any one of you take the property of his brother in play and in earnest ]; by which is meant taking a thing without meaning to steal it, but meaning to vex and anger the owner, so that the taker is in play with respect to theft, but in earnest in annoying. (TA in art. لعب.) ― -b2- فُلَانٌ جَادٌّ Such a one is striving, labouring, or toiling; exerting himself or his power or efforts or endeavours or ability; &c. (TA.) And ↓ فُلَانٌ جَادٌّ مُجِدٌّ, thus with the two similar words together, (As, S, L,) signifies the same [in an intensive degree]. (L, TA.) -A3- جَادُّ مِائَةِ وَسْقٍ Land, or palm-trees, of which the produce, cut therefrom, is a hundred camel-loads: جَادٌّ being here used in the sense of ↓ مَجْدُودٌ. (L.) It is said in a trad. of Aboo-Bekr, عِشْرِينَ وَسْقًا ↓ نَهَلَ عَائِشَةَ جِدَادَ, meaning He gave to 'Áïsheh palm-trees of which the quantity of the dates cut therefrom was a hundred camel-loads; but the phrase heard from the Arabs is جَادَّ عِشْرِينَ: the former is like the saying هٰذِهِ الدَّرَاهِمُ ضَرْبُ الأَمِيرِ; and the latter, like عِيشَةٌ رَاضِيَةٌ. (Mgh.)

جَادَّةٌ جاد جاده جادة The main part of a road; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) its middle: (Mgh, Msb, and M voce جَرَجَة:) or its even part: or the beaten track, or part along which one walks, or travels; the conspicuous part thereof: or a main road that comprises other roads, or tracks, and upon which one must pass: (TA:) or a road, or way, absolutely; as also ↓ جُدَّةٌ: (Zj, MF:) or a road leading to water: (AHn, TA:) it is so called because it is marked with tracks, forming lines: (T, TA:) pl. جَوَادٌّ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) occurring in poetry without teshdeed, but disapproved by As. (L.) فُلَانٌ عَلَى الجَادَّةِ means (assumed tropical:) Such a one is following the right course of action or the like. (Mgh.) You say also, هُوَ عَلَى جَادَّةِ الحَقِّ (assumed tropical:) [ He is on the road, or main road, of truth ]: not, however, عَلَى جَادَّةِ البَاطِلِ, but على مَزَلَّةِ البَاطِلِ, and مَزْلَقَتِهِ, and مَهْلَكَتِهِ. (MF.)

(M, TA. [Respecting أَخْصَبَّا, see 4 in art. خصب.]) ― -b2- Also A place, (S, A, K,) or a country, or region, (Msb,) affected with drought, barrenness, or dearth; or with drought, and dryness of the earth; and so ↓ جَدِيبٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and ↓ جَدُوبٌ and ↓ مَجْدُوبٌ, (K,) the last derived from جُدِبَ though this verb has not been used, (TA,) and ↓ مُجْدِبٌ, (M, A,) of which the pl. is مَجَادِيبُ. (A.) You say also أَرْضٌ جَدْبٌ [in which جدب is an inf. n.

(S, K.) And ↓ فَلَاةٌ جَدْبَاآءُ [fem. of أَجْدَبُ] (M, K) A desert affected with drought, &c.; (K;) in which is neither little nor much, neither pasture nor herbage. (M, TA.)

جَدُوبٌ جدوب : see جَدْبٌ, in three places.

جَادِبٌ جادب Finding fault, dispraising, expressing disapprobation: whence the saying of Dhu-rRummeh, فَيَا لَكَ مِنْ خَدٍّ أَسِيلٍ و مَنْطِقٍ رَخِيمٍ وَمِنْ خَلْقٍ تَعَلَّلَ جَادِبُهْ meaning [ O thou smooth and even cheek, and gentle speech, and make ] whereof he who dispraises it occupies himself vainly, finding no defect in it. (S, TA.) ― -b2- It is also said [as in the K &c.] to signify Lying; and the author of the 'Eyn says that it has no verb belonging to it [in this sense]; but this is a mistranscription [for خَادِبٌ]: AZ says that جَادِبٌ, with ج, has the signification here first given. (M, TA.)

جُنْدَبٌ جندب and جُنْدُبٌ (S, K, &c.) and جِنْدَبٌ, like دِرْهَمٌ, (Sb, M, K,) the last of which is of weakest authority, because of a rare measure, whereof it has been said that there are only four examples: (TA:) in all of them the ن is said by some to be radical; but others, with more reason, hold it to be augmentative: (MF:) Sb says that it is augmentative: (S:) A species of locust, (S, K,) well known: (K:) or the male locust: or small locust: or, accord. to Seer, i. q. صَدًى [ a kind of cricket ], that creaks by night, and hops and flies: [but see صَدًى:] or, accord. to the M, it is smaller than the صدى, and is found in the deserts: pl. جَنَادِبُ. (TA.) صرّ الجندب [i. e. صَرَّ الجُنْدَبُ The جندب creaked ] is a saying of the Arabs, used as a proverb; alluding to a difficult affair by which a person is troubled in mind; originating from the fact that the جندب, when its feet are scorched by the heated ground, does not keep them steadily upon it, and a creaking sound is consequently heard, produced by its legs. (TA.) ― -b2- أُمُّ جُنْدَبٍ The sand; because the locust [or جندب] deposits its eggs therein: and the walker therein falls into evil [or encounters difficulty]. (TA.) ― -b3- [Hence it signifies also] Misfortune: (S, M, K:) and perfidy, or faithlessness, or treachery: (M, K:) and wrong, or injury: (S, M, K:) and evil conduct, or ill treatment. (S.) You say, وَقَعَ فُلَانٌ فِى أُمِّ جُنْدَبٍ Such a one fell into misfortune: or into perfidy. (TA.) And وَقَعُوا فِى أُمِّ جُنْدَبٍ They suffered wrong, or injury. (AZ, S, K.) And وَقَعَ القَوْمُ جُنْدَبٍ The people, or company of men, committed wrong, or injury, and slew him who was not a slayer: (TA:) [as though they came with violence upon sand in which eggs of the جندب were deposited, and so destroyed the eggs, which had occasioned them no harm.] And رَكِبَ أُمَّ جُنْدَبٍ He committed wrong, or injury. (TA.)

[ أَجْدَبُ ذ i. q. جَدْبٌ as syn. with جَدِيبٌ: fem. جَدْيَاآءُ. Hence,] فَلَاةٌ جَدْيَاآءُ: see جَدْبٌ. ― -b2- [Hence also,] سَنَةٌ جَدْبَاآءُ A year of much snow. (L in art. شهب.) ― -b3- أَجْدَبُ is [also] said in the M to be [used as] a subst. applied to what is termed مُجْدِب [i. e. as syn. with the latter word used as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant; app. meaning A place, or the like, affected with drought, &c.]. (TA.) ― -b4- [Also, as a comparative and superlative epithet, meaning More, and most, affected with drought, &c.; contr. of أَخْصَبُ.]

أَجَادِبُ ذ , in a trad., where it is said, وَكَانَتْ فِيهِ أَجَادِبُ أَمْسَكَتِ المَاآءِ, (K, * TA,) or وكانت فِيهَا, (TA,) [ And there were in it اجادب that retained the water ], is said to be pl. of أَجْدُبٌ, which is pl. of ↓ جَدْبٌ, (K, TA,) like as أَكَالِبُ is pl. of أَكْلُبٌ, which is pl. of كَلْبٌ; (TA;) and signifies hard parts of the ground, that retain water, and do not imbibe it quickly; or, as some say, land having no plants or herbage, from ↓ جَدْبٌ meaning “ drought ” &c: the word is thus written in the two Saheehs, of El-Bukháree and Muslim: (IAth, TA:) but some say that it is an anomalous pl. of جَدْبٌ, like as مَحَاسِنُ is of حُسْنٌ: and there are other readings; namely, أَجَاذِبُ and أَحَادِبُ and أَحَازِبُ and أَجَارِدُ, pl. of أَجْرَدُ, and اـِخَاذَاتٌ, pl. of اـِخَاذَةٌ. (MF, TA.)

مِجْدَابٌ مجداب Land scarely ever, or never, abundant in herbage, or in the goods, conveniences, or comforts, of life; scarcely ever, or never, fruitful, or plentiful. (K.)

8 اجتدث اجتدث He made, or prepared, a جَدَث, i. e., a grave, or sepulchre; or did so for himself. (S, K, TA.)

جَدَثٌ جدث A grave; a sepulchre; pl. أَجْدَاثٌ (S, Msb, K) and أَجْدُثٌ; (S, K;) of which latter, J cites an ex., but in this instance it is the proper name of a place. (TA.) It is of the dial. of Tihámeh: the people of Nejd say جَدَفٌ: (Msb:) or [as some say] the ف in the latter is a substitute for the ث in the former; for اجداث is used as a pl. by common consent, and اجداف is not used: (TA:) but Suh affirms, in the R, that the latter pl. is used by Ru-beh. (TA in art. جدف.)

1 جَدَحَ جدح , aor. جَدَحَ , inf. n. جَدْحٌ, He mixed anything. (L.) جَدَحَ السَّوِيقُ, (S, A, Mgh, L, K,) وَنَحْوَهُ, aor. and inf. n. as above; and ↓ جدّحهُ, inf. n. تَجْدِيحٌ; (L;) and ↓ اجتدحهُ, (S, L, K,) and ↓ اجدحهُ; (K;) He stirred about the سويق [or meal made of parched barley or wheat ], and the like, with water, [or milk, (see what follows,) or clarified butter, or fat of a sheep's tail, &c., (see لَتَّ,)] until the whole became of a uniform consistence: (L:) or he stirred it about with a مِجْدَح: (A, L:) or he stirred about the سويق in milk, and the like, with a مجدح, until it became mixed: (Lth, TA:) or he beat and mixed the سويق with a مجدح: (Mgh:) i. q. لَتَّهُ: (S, K:) and ↓ جدّحهُ, inf. n. تَجْدِيحٌ, he mixed it; in the K, لَطَخَهُ; but the right reading is خَلَطَهُ, as in the L and other lexicons: (TA:) and ↓ اجتدحهُ he drank it (شربه [but this is perhaps a mistranscription for ضَرَبَهُ he beat it ]) with the مجدح. (L, TA.)
