[of pauc.] أَنْوَاطٌ (S. K) and [of mult.] نِيَاطٌ (Az, K;) the former is pl. of نَوْطٌ in the general sense first mentioned above: and also signifies what is suspended (نُوِّطَ, as in two copies of the S, or نُوطَ, as in the TA) upon the camel when he is loaded: (S, TA:) and i. q. مَعَالِيقُ [ things suspended to a beast of burden; such as the قُمْقُمَة and the قِرْبَة and the مِطْهَرَة]. (S, K.) It is said in a proverb عَاطٍ بَغَيْرِ أَنْوَاطٍ Taking [or reaching to take ] without there being there anything suspended; which is like the saying “ Driving by singing without having a camel ” (S, L, See also art عطو.]) And in another proverb. اـِنْ أَعْيَا البَعِيرُ فَزِدْهُ نَوْطًا [ If the camel be fatigued, add thou to him an appendage to his full load ] meaning, if he be slow and inobsequious in his pace, do not thou lighten his burden: (K:) accord. to As, اـِنْ أَعْيَا فَزِدْهُ نَوْطًا is a proverb relating to the pressing a niggardly man.

نِيَاطٌ ذ The loop-shaped handle (عُرْوَة) of a قِرْبَة [or water-skin]: (Msb:) the [ appendage called ] مُعَلَّق [q. v.] of a bow; (S, K;) by which it is suspended: (K, voce خَطَمَ:) and of a قِرْبَة: [by which it is suspended; (see 1, second sentence;) and of anything. (K.) ― -b2- See also شِيَاقٌ. ― -b3- Also (S, Msb [in the K, “ or, ” which is evidently a mistake,]) النِّيَاطُ [i. e. نِيَاطُ القَلْبِ The suspensory of the heart; ] a vein, (S, Msb,) or a thick vein, (K,) [app. the ascending aorta, ] by which the heart is suspended (S, Msb, K) from, (مِنْ, S, Msb [or possibly this may mean forming a part of,]) or to, (اـِلَى, K,) the وَتِين, [which seems here to signify the descending aorta, or, accord. to the second rendering of من, suggested above, the aorta altogether, ] (S, Msb, K,) the cutting, or severing, of which causes death; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ نَيْط: (S:) pl. [of pauc.] أَنْوِطَةٌ and [of mult.] نُوطٌ, with damm, (Az, K,) because the ى in نِيَاطٌ is originally و: the latter is allowable when the number is not meant [to be limited to a few]: or, accord. to some, there are two things thus called: the upper being that of the heart: and the lower, the فَرْج. (Az, L.) [Hence,] المُقَطَّعَةُ النِّيَاطِ (K, and so in a copy of the S, excepting that the former word is there without the article,) is applied to (tropical:) The أَرْنَب [or female hare ], (S, K,) like مُقَطَّعَةُ الأَسْحَارِ, (S,) as an appellation of good omen, i. e. as meaning that her نياط will be severed: or, as some say, المُقَطِّعَةُ النِّيَاطِ, (K, and so in some copies of the S, excepting that the former word is there without the article,) as meaning that, by reason of her swiftness, her نياط, or [as in the A,] the نياط of [every one of] the dogs [that pursue her], will be severed. (K.) Hence also the saying, ↓ رَمَاهُ ا@للّٰهُ بِالنَّيْطِ, meaning [ God smote him, or may God smite him, ] with death. (S.) [See also art. نيط.] [Hence likewise,] النِّيَاطُ is applied to (tropical:) Two stars [app. s and t of Scorpio ] between which is قَلْبُ العَقْرَبِ [which is the star and of that constellation ]. (Sgh, K, TA.) ― -b4- Also, i. q. الفُؤَادُ [which generally means The heart; but is probably here used in one of its other senses, namely, the appendages of the œsophagus, consisting of the liver and lungs and heart ]. (K.) ― -b5- Also, A certain vein lying within the صُلْب [i. e. backbone, or back ], beneath the [ portion of flesh and sinew called the ] مَتْن; and so ↓ النَّائِطُ: (K:) or the latter is a vein extending in, or along, the صُلْب, [in some copies of the K, قَلْب, which, as is said in the TA, is a mistake,] by the cutting of which the مَصْفُور [or person in whose belly is yellow water, as explained in the TA,] is treated for the purpose of cure. (S, K.) ― -b6- نِيَاطُ المَفَازَةِ (tropical:) The far extent of the desert: (TA:) or of the way thereof; as though it were connected with another desert, (S, K,) hardly coming to an end. (S, TA.) [Thus,] البَعِيدُ نِيَاطُهُ, applied to the Hijáz, means البَعِيدُ مُعَلَّقُهُ (assumed tropical:) [i. e. Whereof every connected part, or appendant tract, is far-extending ]. (Ham, p. XXX ). The Rájiz, El-'Ajjáj, says, وَبَلْدَةٍ بَعِيدَةِ النِّيَاطِ مَجْهُولَةٍ تَغْتَالُ خَطْوَ الخَاطِى (assumed tropical:) [ Many a region far extending, unknown, rendering unapparent the trace of the stepping of the stepper ]. (S and O in the present art. and in art. غول.)

النَّائطُ ذ : see نِيَاطٌ.

تَنَوُّطٌ ذ , (S, K,) like تَكَرُّمٌ, (K,) and تُنَوِّطٌ, (S, K,) with damm to the ت (K) and fet-h to the ن (TA) and kesr to the و, (K,) or تَنَوِّطٌ, (as in some copies of the S,) and تُنُوِّطٌ, (TA, voce تُبُشِّرٌ,) A certain bird, that lets down strings from a tree, (As, S, K,) and weaves its nest like an oilflask, suspended to those strings, (K,) then produces her young therein; and hence its appellation: (As, S:) a certain bird, like the قَارِيَة in blackness, [or rather in dinginess, ] that constructs its nest between two twigs, or branches, or upon one twig, or branch, making its nest long, so that a man cannot reach its eggs until he introduces his arm to the shoulder-joint: or, accord. to Aboo-'Alee, a certain bird, that suspends pieces of the bark of trees [ formed into strings ], and makes its nest at their extremities, to protect itself from serpents and men and ذَرّ [or young ants, or small red ants]: (TA [see also صَافِرٌ:]) called in Persian كِيPُوْ: (Kzw:) n. un. with ة. (S, K.) [See De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, 2nd ed., vol. iii., p. 499.] Hence the proverb, أَصْنَعُ مِنْ تَنَوُّطٍ [ More skilled in fabricating than a تنوّط]. (Meyd.)

تَنْوُاطٌ ذ What is hung (S, K) from, (S,) or upon, (K,) the [ kind of vehicle called ] هَوْدَجٌ, for ornament: (S, K:) or the implements, or apparatus, &c., that are hung upon a horse. (Ham, p. 165 ) ― -b2- And hence, (tropical:) Adventives; or persons who introduce themselves among a people, and live among them, not being of their race; and persons whose fathers are free men, or Arabs, and whose mothers are slaves, and who have become conjoined with the genuine and pure Arabs, not being of them: for ذُو التَّنْوَاطِ; [or ذَوُو التَّنْوَاطِ;] the latter of these two words being originally an inf. n.: or it may be an inf. n. used as an epithet. (Ham, ibid.) [See also مَنُوطٌ.]

مَنَاطٌ ذ A place of suspension, or hanging. (Msb.) ― -b2- [Hence the saying,] فُلَانٌ مِنِّى مَنَاطَ الثُّرَيَّا (tropical:) [ Such a one is with respect to me as though he were in the place of suspension of the Pleiades ]; i. e., in distance: (Sb, S, K * [in the K, هذا is put for فُلَانٌ; and in the CK, مَناطُ is erroneously put for مناطَ]:) or the meaning is, in such a station: the prep. being understood, as in ذَهَبْتُ الشَأْمَ and دَخَلْتُ البَيْتَ: Z says, هُمْ مِنِّى مَنَاطَ الثُّرَيَّا (tropical:) [ they are &c.] by reason of their elevated state. (TA.)

مَنُوطٌ ذ Suspended; hung. (K.) You say, هٰذَا مَنُوطٌ بِهِ This is suspended, or hung, to him, or it. (K.) ― -b2- [Hence the saying,] هٰذَا رَجُلٌ مَنُوطٌ بِالقَوْمِ (assumed tropical:) This is a man adventive to the people; one who has introduced himself among them, and lives among them, not being of their race: (K, * TA:) or i. q. دَعِىٌّ [ one whose origin, or lineage, is suspected; &c.]: (K:) and مَنُوطٌ مُذَبْذِبٌ is also applied to a person of this latter description who betakes himself to a people; the latter epithet being added to denote that he knows not to whom to assert himself related, like the wind wavering to the right and left. (TA.) See also تَنْوَاطٌ.]

مُنْتَاطٌ ذ (tropical:) Distant, or remote; and far extending. (TA.) You say, مُنْتَاطُ المَحَلِّ (tropical:) Whose place of abode is distant. (TA.) And غَايَةٌ مُنْتَاطَةٌ (tropical:) A distant goal, or scope; or a far-extending space. (TA.)

1 نَاآءَ ذ , aor. يَنِىْءُ, (so in the S, Nh, L, Msb; but in some copies of the K, يناءُ, [which appears to be put by mistake for the inf. n. in the acc. case];) inf. n. نَىْءٌ, (S,) and نَىٌّ, without ء, and نَوْءٌ, (Sh,) It (flesh meat, &c.) was not, or did not become, sufficiently cooked; it was insufficiently cooked: (S, K:) (like نَهِئَ:) or it was untouched by fire; (i. e., raw ]. (L.) ― -b2- It (a thing) was not firmly, not soundly, not thoroughly, done. [See 4.] (TA.)

2 نَيَّاَ see 4.

4 اناء الأَمْرَ ذ He did the thing not firmly, not soundly, not thoroughly. الامر ↓ نيّأ, accord. to the K, signifies the same: but this is unknown, and not authorized by transmission [from the Arabs of the classical ages], and therefore not mentioned by IM nor by other leading lexicographers: the correct phrases are [when the verb is intrans.] ناء الامرُ [and اللحمُ], and [when it is trans.] اناء اللحمَ [and الامر]: the forms of the verb being like بَانَ and أَبَانَ. (TA.) ― -b2- اناء, (S, incorrectly written in the K أَنْيَأَ, TA,) inf. n. اـِنَاآءَةٌ, He insufficiently cooked flesh-meat [&c.]. (S, K.)

نِىْءٌ ذ Flesh meat &c. insufficiently cooked: (S, K:) or untouched by fire; [i. e., raw ]. (L.) It was also pronounced by the Arabs نِىٌّ; but the original word is with ء. (TA.) ― -b2- Wine untouched by the fire: cooked [or mulled] wine being called نَضِيجٌ, (TA [written نِىٌّ, without ء]). ― -b3- Pure [ and sweet ] milk: sour milk being called نضيج: or milk just drawn from the udder, before it is put into the skin. (TA [written نِىٌّ, without ء.])

نَىٌّ ذ [for نَىْءٌ] Fat, as contradistinguished from flesh, [which is app. called نَضِيجٌ]. (TA.)

نُيُوْءٌ ذ and نُيُوْءَةٌ The state of being insufficiently cooked: (S, K:) or of being untouched by fire; [i. e., rawness ]. (L.)

1 نَابَهُ ذ , aor. يَنِيبُ, He hit him on his ناب, i. e., his canine tooth. (S, K.)

2 نيّب السَّهْمَ ذ He bit the wood of the arrow, to know whether it were strong or weak, and made an impression upon it with his canine tooth. (S, K.) ― -b2- نيّب فِيهِ He (a beast of prey) made an impression upon him with his canine tooth: he fixed his canine teeth in him. (TA) ― -b3- نيّبت She (a camel) became extremely old: (Lh, S, K:) became what is termed a ناب. (A.) ― -b4- نيّب and ↓ تنيّب (assumed tropical:) It (a plant) put forth its root. (K.) Also signifying the same with reference to white, or hoary hair. The root is thought by ISd to be thus likened to a canine tooth. (TA.) ― -b5- ظَفَّر فُلَانٌ فِى كَذَا وَنَيَّبَ (tropical:) Such a one clung to, caught to, or took fast hold upon, such a thing: [lit., stuck his nails and dog-teeth into it ]. (A.) See also ظَفَّرَ.

5 تَنَيَّبَ see 2.

نَابٌ ذ [originally نَيَبٌ, The canine tooth, or dog-tooth; or eye-tooth; the tusk, or tush; or the fang; of certain animals:] one of the teeth; (S;) the tooth that is [ next ] behind the رَبَاعِيَة, [or next but one to the central pair of incisors: ] (M, K.) [In this sense, the word is masc.:] the tooth thus called is mase., when thus called: [though if you call it سِنٌّ, it is fem.:] but ناب when fem. signifies “ an old she-camel ” (Msb:) or, accord. to the M and K, it is fem. only in each of the above senses without distinction. (TA.) Sb says, that the Arabs observed the pronunciation termed imáleh (اـِمَالَة) in the case of ناب in the nom. [as well as in the acc. and gen., in which latter case this pronunciation is agreeable with analogy on account of the final kesreh,] likening its (tropical:) to that in رَمَى, [in which it is expressed in writing by ى,] because it is changed from ى: but this is extr. That is, this pronunciation of (tropical:) changed from ى or و is only observed [regularly] when the said ا is a final radical letter; and specially in verbs: the instances of this kind that occur in nouns are extr.; and more so are those in which the ا changed from ى is a medial radical letter. (TA.) [But the restriction to the case of verbs is inconsistent with what is said by Ibn-Málik and other high authorities: and so, too, is the restriction to the case of a final radical letter.] Pl. أَنْيُبٌ (Lh, K) and أَنْيَابٌ [both pls. of pauc.: but the latter is used as a pl. of mult.:] and نُيُوبٌ; (S, K;) the latter contr. to analogy, (S,) because [نَابٌ is originally نَيَبٌ, and] a word of the measure فَعَلٌ does not [regularly] assume the measure فَعُولٌ in the pl.; (TA;) to which should be added نِيُوبٌ, a dial. var., as in the case of every pl. of the measure فُعُولٌ of which the medial radical letter is ى: (M, F:) and pl. pl. أَنَايِيبُ. (K, TA.) Ibn-Seenà says that no animal has both a ناب and a horn. (Msb.) ― -b2- نَابٌ An aged she-camel: (S, K:) not applied to a male camel: (S;) so called because of the length of her lush; (S;) by synedoche; the whole being called by the name of a part: (TA:) as also ↓ نَيُوبٌ; (K;) accord. to some copies of the K, نَيَّوبٌ; but this is a mistake: (TA:) pl. of the former أَنْيَابٌ and نُيُوبٌ (K) and نِيبٌ: (S, K:) or these are pls. of both the former of sing. (K. accord. to some copies; and TA.) Sb is of opinion that نِيبٌ is pl. of ناب, and says that the Arabs have made it of the measure فُعْلٌ [as it is said to be in the S, for it is originally نُيْبٌ like as they have the pl. of دَارٌ, disliking the sound of نُيُوبٌ, because the ى is with dammeh, and preceded by dammeh, and followed by و. It is also said to be pl. of ↓ نَيُوبٌ; as it is related, on the authority of Yoo, that certain of the Arabs say صِيدٌ and بِيضٌ, as pls. of صَيُودٌ and بَيُوضٌ, agreeably with the dial. of those who say رُسْلٌ [instead of رُسُلٌ]; namely, the tribe of Temeem but their not saying نُيُبٌ, like as they say صُيُدٌ and بُيُضٌ, is an argument in favour of the opinion of Sb. ― -b3- لَا أَفْعَلُ ذٰلِكَ مَا حَنَّتِ النِّيبُ [ I will not do that as long as aged she-camels yearn towards their young ones i. e., I will never do it]. A proverb. (S.) ― -b4- The dim. of نَابٌ is نُيَيْبٌ, without ة, because ناب, as applied to an aged she-camel, is like an epithet: (S:) or rather this formation of the dim. without ناب is a dev. from constant rule. (MF.) Sh says, that some of the Arabs make the dim. of ناب to be ثُوَيْبٌ, because many an ا such as that in ناب is changed from و: [or rather, this is generally the case:] but this, says Ibn-Es-Sarráj is an error on his part [who does so]. (S.) This apparently means, that Ibn-EsSarráj accuses Sh of an error; but such is not the case: for Sb himself says “ but this is an error on their part; ” i. e., on the part of the Arabs who say نويب for نييب (IB.) ― -b5- نَابُ قَوْمٍ (tropical:) The lord, master, or chief, of a people: (S, K:) pl. أَنْيَابٌ. (TA.) ― -b6- عَضَّتْهُ أَنْيَابُ الدَّهْرِ, and نُيُوبُهُ, [(tropical:) The dog-teeth of fortune bit him ]. (A.) ― -b7- انياب are likewise met. assigned to evil, or mischief. (TA.)

نَيُوبٌ ذ : see نَاب.

نُيَّبٌ ذ [as though pl. of نَائِبٌ or نَائِبَةٌ] an epithet added to نُيُوبٌ as signifying “ canine teeth. ” to render the signification intensive, or energetic. (TA.)

أَنْيَبُ ذ Having a large, or thick, canine tooth, (K,) that does not bite a thing without breaking it. (Th.)
