Root: تعب

Form: 4

Full Definition

اتعبIV He fatigued, tired, wearied, or jaded, another; and himself, in a work that he imposed upon himself, or in which he laboured; and his travelling-camels, by urging them quickly, or by hard journeying.
2 He broke a bone again after it had been set, or consolidated: or he caused a bone to have a defect in it, after it had been set, so that there remained in it a constant swelling, or resulted a lameness: اتعب العَظْمَ signifying أَعْنَتَهُ بَعْدَ الجَبْرِ: or أَعْتَبَهُ بعد الجبر. (So in MS. copies of the K and in the TA. [In the latter, in art. عتب, this reading is confirmed; but a remark below, voce مُتْعَبٌ, rather favours the former reading, that of the CK.])
3 He filled a vessel; as, for instance, a drinking-cup, or bowl.

def.2 اتعب القَوْمُ The people's cattle became fatigued, tired, wearied, or jaded.
