Parallel reading

الأداف، كغراب أهمله الجوهري، وقال ابن الأعرابي: هو الذكر، ومنه الحديث: في الأداف الدية يعني الذكر إذا قطع

Al-Adāf, like ghurāb, was neglected by Al-Jawhari. Ibn al-A'rābī said: it is the male organ, and from it is the Hadith: 'In the adāf is the blood-wit,' meaning the male organ if it is cut.

الأدافا مثل الذراع يمتطي النطافا

Al-Adāfā, like the forearm, rides the Nutfā.

وهو مأخوذ من ودف الإناء، إذا قطر، وودفت الشحمة: إذا قطرت دهنا

And it is derived from 'wadif al-inā'' (the vessel dripped), if it dripped, and 'wadifat al-shahmah' (the fat dripped), if it oozed oil.

وقال غيره: الأداف الأذن نقله الصاغاني

Others said: Al-Adāf means the ear, as reported by Al-Sāghānī.

وأدفية، كأثفية: جبل لبني قشير هكذا ضبطه الصاغاني، وقلده المصنف، والذي صح أنه بالقاف، كما حققه ياقوت في المعجم

And Adfiyah, like Athfiyah: a mountain of Banu Qushayr. This is how Al-Sāghānī vocalized it, and the author followed him. What is correct is that it is with a qaf, as verified by Yaqut in the Mu'jam.

وأدفوة: بضم الهمزة وفتحها، وقد تعجم الدال هكذا بزيادة هاء في آخرها، ويوجد في بعض النسخ تشديد الواو أيضا، وكلاهما خطأ، والصواب في ضبطه أدفو بضم فسكون الدال والواو والفاء مضمومة، وقد تبدل الدال تاء

And Adfwah: with damma on the hamza and fatha. The dal might be Arabized with an added ha at the end, and some copies have a shadda on the waw as well; both are errors. The correct vocalization is Adfu, with damma, sukun on the dal, and damma on the fa, and the dal might be replaced by a ta.

A town near Alexandria in the provinces of Beheira, and also: a town in Upper Egypt, which is a populous village between Aswan and Qus, with many date palms, and it has a fruit that cannot be eaten until it is pounded in a mortar, like sugar, and sprinkled on porridges, according to Ibn Zulāq.
