وَلْثَةٌ ذ : see وَلْثٌ. ― -b2- عِنْدِى وَلْثَةٌ مِنْ خَبَرٍ I have a little news. (TA.)

شَرٌّ وَالِثٌ ذ A lasting, or constant, evil. (K.) ― -b2- دَيْنٌ وَالِثٌ, an expression used by Ru-beh, (TA,) A burdensome debt: (K:) or a lasting, or constant, debt: (IAar:) or, as some say, a debt by which one constantly binds himself (يَتَفَلَّدُهُ), as he does by a contract.

1 وَلَجَ ذ , aor. يَلِجُ, inf. n. وُلُوجٌ and لِجَةٌ; and ↓ اـِتَّلَجَ; (S, K;) and ↓ تولّج; (L;) He, or it, entered. (S, K.) You say وَلَجَ البَيْتَ, and ↓ اتّلجه, and ↓ تولّجهُ, He entered the house. (L.) And وَلَجَ الشَّىْءُ فِى غَيرِهِ The thing entered into another thing. (Msb.) As is said in the S and L, Sb says that وَلَجَ has for its inf. n. وُلُوجٌ, which is of one of the measures of the inf. ns. of intrans. verbs, because the meaning [of وَلَجْتُ البَيْتَ] is وَلَجْتُ فِيهِ: and it is said in the M, that Sb holds the intermediate particle to be dropped: but Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed holds the verb to be trans. without an intermediate particle. MF observes, that Sb's words appear to make ولج a trans. verb, which no one asserts it to be: that if he mean that it has as its complement a noun in the acc. case as an adverbial noun of place, it is like دَخَلْتُ and other intrans. verbs: but if he mean that it governs a simple objective complement, like ضَرَبْتُ زَيْدًا, his opinion is not correct. (TA.)

[xxii. 60; and other chapters,] يُولِجُ ا@للَّيلَ فِى النَّهَارِ وَيُولِجُ النَّهَارَ فِى ا@للَّيْلِ signifies He maketh the night, by increasing it, to enter into, [or encroach upon, ] the day, and maketh the day, in like manner, to enter into, [or encroach upon, ] the night: (Jel:) or He increaseth the night with a part of the day, by taking from the latter and adding to the former, and in like manner increaseth the day with a part of the night. (S.) ― -b3- [اولج is often used for اولج ذكره; and hence as meaning Inivit. ]

وَلَدٌ ذ (of the measure فَعَلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, Msb) and ↓ وُلْدٌ (S, A, L, Msb, K) and ↓ وِلْدٌ (S, L, K) and ↓ وَلْدٌ, (K,) each used alike as sing. and pl., (S, M, A, L, K,) and masc. and fem., (M, L, Msb,) A child, son, daughter, youngling, or young one; and children, sons, daughters, offspring, young, or younglings; of any kind: [often applied to an unborn child, &c.; a fœtus: ] (M, L, Msb:) pl. [of pauc.] of وَلَدٌ, (M, L, Msb, TA,) and of وُلْدٌ, (M, L,) أَوْلَادٌ; (M, L, Msb, K;) and [pl. of pauc. of وَلَدٌ,] وِلْدَةٌ and اـِلْدَةٌ: (M, L, K:) and pl. of وَلَدٌ, وُلْدٌ, (S, M, L, Msb, K, *) like as أُسْدٌ is pl. of أَسَدٌ, (S, L, Msb,) in the dial. of the tribe of Keys, (T, Msb,) who make وَلَدٌ singular. (T.) ― -b2- مَنْ دَمَّى عَقِبَيْكِ ↓ وُلْدُكِ, a proverb, (T, S, L; but in the S, عَقِبَيْكَ;) of the Benoo-Asad, (S, L,) Thy son is he who made thy two heels to be smeared with blood; (TA;) i. e., whom thou thyself broughtest forth; (K, TA;) he is thy son really; not he whom thou hast taken from another, and adopted.

لِدَةٌ ذ , in which the ة is a substitute for the و that is elided from the beginning, for it is from الوِلَادَةُ, (S, L,) or, accord. to some, it is from لَدى, q. v., (TA,) applied to a male and to a female, (TA, voce تِرْبٌ,) i. q. تِرْبٌ; (S, L, K;) meaning One born at the same time with another; coëtanean, or a contemporary in birth (TA) of a man: (S, L:) dual لِدَانِ; (S, L;) [but لِدَةٌ occurs in a dual sense in the Jm and O and K, voce صَوْغٌ, q. v.;] pl. لِدَاتٌ and لِدُونَ: (S, L, K:) AHei and other expositors of the Tesheel say, that words like لدة have the latter form of pl. when they become proper names. (TA.) The dim. [of the pl.] is وُلَيْدَاتٌ and وُلَيْدُونَ, (K,) because the formation of a dim. restores a word to its original form; (TA;) not لُدَيَّاتٌ and لُدَيُّونَ, as some of the Arabs erroneously make it: (K:) but this which F pronounces an error is accordant to the authority of the leading writers on inflexion, who say that by regarding the original form, and restoring it thereto, the word is made to depart from the meaning intended by it; for if its dim. were made وُلَيْدٌ, there would be no difference between it and the dim. of وَلَدٌ. (TA.) See also art. لدى. ― -b2- See مِيلَادٌ.

(S, L.) ― -b7- One also says, فِى الأَرْضِ عُشْبٌ لَا يُنَادَى وَلِيدُهُ [ In the land is fresh herbage respecting which the servant-boy, or slave, will not be called out to ]; because it matters not in what part of such land the beasts are; the whole abounding with herbage: and جَاؤُوا بِطَعَامٍ لَا يُنَادَى وَلِيدُهُ [ They brought food respecting which the servant-boy, or slave, would not be called out to ]; meaning, that one would not care what injury he might do to it, nor when he ate of it.

(L, K.) [It is difficult to mark the exact line of distinction between the Islámees and the Muwelleds, so as always to be certain to which of these two classes a poet belongs. The latter are those born, not merely since the first corruption of the Arabic language, which happened in, or before, the age of Mohammad, (see Mz, 44th نوع,) but since the extensive corruption which happened after the Arabs had spread themselves, by their conquests, among foreigners, in consequence of which their language became simplified. This change took place in the latter half of the first century of the Flight. Hence the poetry of the Muwelleds in not cited as authoritative in lexicology or grammar, or as to the metres of verse, or rhymes.
