صَرْمَةٌ

Root: صرم

Full Definition

صَرْمَةٌ [an epithet applied to a man, but used as a subst., and therefore having for its pl. صَرَمَاتٌ]. One says, هُوَ صَرْمَةٌ مِنَ الصَّرَمَاتِ, [the last word said to be thus (مُحَرَّكَة) in the TA, but in the CK (in which as well as in my MS. copy of the K من is omitted) written الصَّرْماتِ,] meaning He is [a person] slow to revert from his anger.

def.2 Also, [if not a mistranscription for صِرْمَة ,] A portion of silver, melted, and cleared of its dross, and poured forth into a mould.
