Full Definition

ازغلهُIV , Verbal.Noun إِزْغَالٌ, He poured it out, or forth. (TA. [And زَغَلَهُ app. signifies the same.]) One says, أَزْغَلَ مِنْ عَزْلَآءِ المَزَادَةِ المَآءَ He poured forth, from the spout of the leathern water-bag, the water. And أَزْغِلْ لِى مِنْ سِقَائِكَ, or مِنْ إِنَائِكَ, (K, [in the CK ازْغَلْ, i. e. اِزْغَلْ, from زَغَلَهُ,]) Pour thou out, for me, somewhat [or a gulp or mouthful] of milk from thy skin, or from thy vessel. See also 1, in two places. One says also, أَزْغَلَتِ النَّاقَةُ بِبَوْلِهَا and بِهِ The she-camel ejected her urine in repeated small quantities ( زُغْلَةً ), and interrupted it. And أَزْغَلَتِ الطَّعْنَةُ بِالدَّمِ, like أَوْزَغَت [i. e. The wound made with a spear or the like emitted blood in repeated gushes].
2 أَزْغَلَتْ وَلَدَهَا She suckled her child. And ازغل فَرْخَهُ He fed his young one with his mouth, or bill: [and ارغل is a dial. var. thereof.]

def.2 أَزْغَلْتَ, said by 'Ásim to Mis'ar, when the latter was reading, or reciting, to him, and did so incorrectly, means Thou hast become like the زُغْلُول, i. e. young infant: mentioned by Z: or he said أَزْغَلْتَ, which is a dial. var. of the former verb. (TA in art. رغل.)
