أَوٌّ ذ The word ↓ أَوْ when made a noun. (T, K.) So say the grammarians. (T.) You say, هٰذهِ أَوٌّحَسَنَةٌ [ This is a good أَوْ]. (T.) And to one who uses the phrase أَفْعَلُ كَذَا أَوْ كَذَا, (T,) you say, دَعِ الأَوَّجَانِبًا [ Let thou, or leave thou, the word أَوْ alone ]. (T, K.)

أَوَّةٌ ذ [ A moaning (see its syn. اآهَةٌ in art. اوه)] is said by some to be of the measure فَعْلَةٌ, in which the ة is the sign of the fem. gender; for they say, سَمِعْتُ أَوَّتَكَ [ I heard thy moaning ], making it ت: and so says Lth; أَوَّةٌ is after the manner of فَعْلَةٌ: (T:) you say, أَوَّةً لَكَ [May God cause moaning to thee! ], (Lth, T, and S in art. اوه,) and اآهَةً لَكَ: [but accord. to J, the former of these is cognate with the latter; for he says that] the former is with the ه suppressed, and with teshdeed to the و. (S in art. اوه, where see اآهَةٌ.) ― -b2- أَوَّتَا عَلَيكَ; and أَوَّتَاه, or اآوَّتَاه, or أَوَتَاه, or أَوَتَاهُ: see أَوِّ مِنْ كَذَا.

أُوَّةٌ ذ i. q. دَاهِيَةٌ [ A calamity, a misfortune, &c.: or, perhaps, very cunning, applied to a man]: pl.

أُوَوْ ذ ; (AA, T, K, TA; [but in copies of the K, written أُوَوٌ;]) which is one of the strangest of the things transmitted from the Arabs; the regular form being أُوَّى, like قُوَّي, pl. of قُوَةٌ; but the word occurring as above in the saying of the Arabs, مَا هُوَ اـِلَّا أُوَّةٌ مِنَ الأُوَوْ [ It is no other thing than a calamity of the calamities: or, perhaps, he is no other than a very cunning man of the very cunning ]. (AA, T, TA.)

(S.) And اآبَ اـِلَيْهِ People came to him from every direction, or quarter. (TA, from a trad.) The poet Sáideh Ibn-El-'Ajlán uses the expression, لَاآبَكَ مُرْهَفٌ, meaning A thin sword would have come to thee; in which the verb may be trans. by itself, or the prep. اـِلَى may be understood.

(T, S, M, L, K: [in the CK فَأْتادَ is erroneously put for فَا@نْاآدَ.]) El-'Ajjáj says, لَمْ يَكُ يَنْاآدُ فَأَمْسَى ا@نْاآدَا [ He used not to become bent, and he has become bent ], making the pret. to be a denotative of state because قَدْ is meant to be understood, as in the saying in the Kur [iv. 92], أَوْ جَاؤُوكُمْ حَصِرَتْ صُدُورُهُمْ.

مَاآوِدُ ماآود Calamities: (IAar, M, L, K:) as also مَوَائِدُ, which is app. formed by transposition. (M, L.)

اـِوَزٌّ أوز اـوز اـوزة اوز وز (S, Msb, K) and اـِوَزَّةٌ, (S,) or the latter is the n. un. of the former, [which is a coll. gen. n.,] (Msb,) i. q. بَطٌّ [The goose, or geese; and the duck, or ducks; but اوزّ is generally applied to the former of these birds; and بطّ, to the latter; agreeably with a statement in the Jm, that بَطٌّ is applied by the Arabs to the small, and اـِوَزٌّ to the large ]; (S, K;) as also وَزٌّ, of which the n. un. is وَزَّةٌ: (Msb:) اـِوَزٌّ is of the measure فِعَلٌّ: (Msb:) [but see what follows:] the pl. is اـِوَزُّونَ, (S, Msb, K,) a form which is sometimes used, (S, Msb,) and which is anomalous. (Msb.) [See also كُرْكِىٌّ.] ― -b2- [Hence,] اـِوَزٌّ also signifies (assumed tropical:) Short and thick: (K:) fleshy without being tall: (Lth, TA:) fem. with ة. (TA.) El-'Okberee asserts that the أ is augmentative, because it is followed by three radical letters: (MF, TA:) but ISd says that it is of the measure فِعَلٌّ, and may not be of the measure اـِفْعَلٌ, [i. e., originally اـِوْزَزٌ,] because this does not occur as the measure of an epithet. (TA.) [It seems, however, that اوزّ is in this case a subst. used tropically as an epithet, after the manner of many nicknames.] ― -b3- Also, applied to a man, and to a horse, and to a camel, Firm in make: (AHei in the Expos. of the Tes-heel, and TA:) or, applied to a horse, compact and strong in make.

(TA.) Az says that it may be of the measure اـِفْعَلَى, [i. e., originally اـِوْزَزَّى,] or فِعَلَّى; but Abu-l-Hasan holds the latter to be the more correct, because it is the measure of many words relating to walking; as جِيَضَّى, and دِفَقَّى. (TA.)

أَضٌ مَأْوَزَةٌ ذ A land abounding with the birds called اـِوَزّ. (Sgh, K.)

اآسٌ اآس [ The myrtle; ] a certain kind of tree, (S, Msb, K,) well known, (S, K,) fragrant, (IDrd, M, Msb,) and evergreen, abundant in the land of the Arabs, growing in the plains and mountains, and increasing so as to become a great tree: (AHn, M, TA:) n. un. with ة: (AHn, M, Msb, K:) IDrd says, I think it an adventitious word, although used by the Arabs, and occurring in chaste poetry. (M, TA.)

(M, TA.) And اـِيفَ الطَّعَامُ, (Ibn Buzurj, T,) or الزَّرْعُ, (K,) or البَّشْىءُ, with the verb in the pass. form, (Msb,) like قِيلَ, (K,) The wheat, or seed-produce, or thing, became affected, or smitten, with what is termed اآفَة [i. e. a blight, blast, taint, canker, or the like ].

(Lth, T, M, K.) Lth says, in this case one says اـِفُوا, and in one dial. اـِيفُوا: (T:) in several copies of his book, in one dial. أُفِّفُوا, with two distinct ف s, of which the former is with teshdeed: but in some copies as mentioned just before. (Sgh, TA.)

اآفَةٌ اآفه اآفة [ A blight, blast, taint, canker, disease, bane, pest, plague, or the like; any evil affection; an evil; a cause of mischief or harm or injury; anything that is noxious or destructive; a calamity;] i. q. عَاهَةٌ; (S, Msb, K;) i. e. (Msb, [in the K “ or, ”]) an accident that mars, or corrupts, that which it affects, or befalls, or smites: (T, M, O, Msb, K:) pl. اآفَاتٌ. (Msb, K.) [See 1.] One says, اآفَهُ الظَّرْفِ الصَّلَفُ وَ اآفَةُ العِلْمِ النِّسعيَانُ [ The bane of elegance in manners, or the like, is the overpassing the due limits therein, and arrogating to oneself superiority therein, through pride; and the bane of science is forgetfulness ]. (T.) And it is said in a trad., اآفَةُ الحَدِيثِ الكَذِبُ وَ اآفَةُ العِلْمِ النِّسْيَانُ [ The bane of discourse is lying; and the bane of science is forgetfulness ]. (TA.) And hence the saying, لِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ اآفَةٌ وَ لِلْعِلْم اآفَاتٌ [ To everything there is a bane; and to science there are banes ]. (TA.)
