Full Definition

داجنهُIII , Verbal.Noun مُدَاجَنَةٌ, He endeavoured to conciliate him; treated him with gentleness, or blandishment; soothed, coaxed, wheedled, beguiled, or deluded, him; syn. دَاهَنَهُ: in the S it is said that مُدَاجَنَةٌ is like مُدَاهَنَةٌ: in the M, that it signifies the mixing in familiar, or social, intercourse, or conversing, in a good manner. [Golius assigns to داجن another signification of داهن; namely “ He held in contempt;” as on the authority of the KL; in my copy of which it is not mentioned; nor can I find it elsewhere.]
