Full Definition

تَامٌّ [part. n. of 1 in the first of the senses explained above]: Complete, entire, whole, or full; without, or free from, deficiency: and consummate, or perfect: as also تَمَامٌ , [which see above,] [and تِمَامٌ , of which see three exs. voce تَمَامٌ,] and تِمٌّ , and تَمَمٌ . Thus تَامُّ الخَلْقِ signifies Complete, or perfect, in make, or formation; without any deficiency in his members; applied to a man; [and, thus applied, signifying also full-grown, as does, sometimes, تَامٌّ alone: and likewise applied to a new-born child, meaning fully formed or developed:] and تَمِيمٌ signifies the same, applied to a man and to a horse, and تَمَمٌ also; and in like manner is used the phrase خَلْقٌ تَمَمٌ [a complete, or perfect, make or formation].
