Parallel reading

ولا يظهر له وجه، فإن الظاهر أن الازدرام افتعال من زرم لا افعلال، فالمادة واحدة فتأمل.
And its meaning is not apparent, for it appears that 'izdiram' is an 'ifti'al' form from 'zarama' and not 'if'ilal', so the root is one, ponder this.
وقد ذكره الجوهري بعد تركيب زرم على الاستقلال، وجعله من تركيب زدرم " بتقديم الدال على الراء "، ثم أورد زردم بتقديم الراء على الدال.
And Al-Jawhari mentioned it after the root 'zarama' independently, and he made it from the root 'z-d-r-m' (with the 'dal' preceding the 'ra'), then he mentioned 'z-r-d-m' (with the 'ra' preceding the 'dal').
