دبو

دَبًى, q. v. infrà], He walked, or went, gently, or in a leisurely manner. (TA.)

2 تَدْبِيَةٌ i. q. صَنْعَةٌ. (K.) You say, دبّاهُ, meaning صَنَعَهُ [He made it, or wrought it; &c.]. (TK.)

4 ادبى, said of the [tree, or shrub, called]

رِمْث, (S,) or of the عَرْفَج, (M, K,) or of each of these, (TA,) It put forth what resembled [the young locusts termed] دَبًى; (M, K;) [i. e.] what

came forth, of its leaves, resembled دَبًى; (S;) and thus became fit to be eaten. (S, M.) [See أَبْقَلَ and ثَقَّبَ and حَنَطَ; and see also رِمْثٌ, and عَرْفَجٌ.]

دَبًى or دَبًا [sometimes written with ى and sometimes with ا] Locusts before they fly: (S:) or locusts when they [first] put themselves in motion, and become black, before their wings grow: in their first state, when they are white, they are termed سَرْءٌ: (AO, T:) or the smallest of locusts, and of ants: (M, K:) or [locusts]

after the state of that which is termed سِرْوَةٌ: (M:) [see جَرَادٌ:] n. un. دَباةٌ. (S, M.)

b2: [Hence,] ↓ جَآءَ بِدَبَى دُبَىٍّ, (M,) or بِدَبَا دُبَىٍّ, and بِدَبَا دُبَيَّيْنِ, (IAar, T, Mj, K,) and ↓ بِدَبَى دُبَيَّانَ and بِدَبَى

دُبَيَّانٍ, (Th, M,) (assumed tropical:) He came with, or brought, much; and what was good: (M:) he came with, or brought, much property or wealth, or many cattle: (M, K:) ↓ دُبَىٌّ is a soft tract in EdDahnà, frequented by locusts, which lay their eggs therein; (M;) it is a spacious place; so that the phrase [جَآءَ بِدَبَى دُبَىٍّ] is as though it meant he came with, or brought, property, or wealth, or cattle, like the [locusts termed] دبا of the spacious place called دبىّ. (T.) J is in error as to this phrase: (K, TA:) for it is stated in the S, as on the authority of IAar, that one says, جَآءَ فُلَانٌ بِدَبَا دَبَا, meaning Such a one came with, or brought, property, or wealth, or cattle, like the دبا in abundance: and thus it is found in his handwriting: and in the Tekmileh it is written, as on the same authority, بِدَبَى دَبًى. (TA.)

Accord. to Abu-l-'Abbás [Th], the [right] phrase is ↓ بِدَبَى دُبِىٍّ: and in one place he says that ↓ دَبىٌّ [thus (for دَبِىٌّ) in the TT as from the T, but probably a mistranscription for ↓ دُبَىٌّ,] signifies Much property or wealth, or many cattle: and accord. to AA, one says, ↓ جَآءَ فُلَانٌ بِدُبَىٌّ, meaning Such a one came with, or brought, property, or wealth, or cattle, like the دبا. (T.)

A2: Also A gentle, or leisurely, manner of walking or going. (K. [See 1.])

دُبَّآءٌ The gourd: n. un. with ة: (S, Msb:) it is mentioned in this art. by J and Z [and Fei]: but accord. to Hr and the K, its proper art. is دب [q. v.]: accord. to Az, دبأ, for he says that its measure is فُعَّالٌ: (TA:) some allow its being written and pronounced ↓ دُبًّى. (TA in art. دب.)

أَرْضٌ مَدْبَاةٌ: see what next follows.

أَرْضٌ مُدْبِيَةٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ مَدْبَاةٌ (S) A land abounding with [the locusts termed] دَبًى or دَبًا. (S, M, K.)
