Al-Yalamq: The tunic, Persian, its Persian name is 'yalama', as transmitted by Al-Jawhari.

تجلو البوارق عن مجرنثم لهق ... كأنه متقبى {يلمق عزب)

The lightning flashes reveal a strong-necked, broad-chested [beast]... as if it were a fine tunic.

وقوله: وتقدم في ل م ق هذه إحالة باطلة، فإنه لم يذكر هناك شيئا من هذا، وإنما اغتر بعبارة العباب

And his saying: 'And previously in L-M-Q, this reference is invalid, for he did not mention anything of this there, but rather he was deceived by the wording of Al-'Abab'.

فإنه فيه: اليلمق يفعل، وقد ذكرناه في تركيب ل م ق فتنبه لذلك

For in it [Al-'Abab] it says: Al-Yalamq is of the pattern 'yaf'alu', and we have mentioned it in the root L-M-Q, so be aware of that.

ثم إن ذكر الصاغاني إياه في ل م ق محل تأمل، فإن اللفظ معرب، والياء من أصل الكلمة فكيف يزنه بيفعل فتأمل ذلك

Then Al-Sagani's mention of it in L-M-Q is subject to contemplation, for the word is Arabicized, and the 'ya' is part of the original word, so how can he weigh it by 'yaf'alu'? Contemplate that.

And Amarah said in Al-Jam': 'As if they were walking in the tunics.'
