Full Definition

تأبّهV He magnified himself; behaved proudly, or haughtily. You say, تَأَبَّهَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى فُلَانٍ The man magnified himself against such a one, and held himself above him. And تَأَبَّهُ عَنْ كَذَا He shunned, avoided, or kept himself far from, such a thing; he was disdainful of it, he disdained it, or held himself above it.
