بَتِعٌ and بَتِعَةٌ A strong neck: or an excessively long neck: or a thick and fleshy neck: and
أَبْتَعُ [in like manner] signifies full, applied to a رُسْغ, [app. here meaning a pastern], accord. to Lth, who cites, from Ru-beh, the phrase رُسْغًا أَبْتَعَ: but IB thinks that the right reading is جِيدًا أَبْتَعَ [a full neck].
