ضَمْرٌ

Root: ضمر

Full Definition

ضَمْرٌ : see ضَامِرٌ, in two places.
2 Hence, in the opinion of ISd, as he says in the M, it is also applied to a horse as meaning دَقِيقُ الحَجَاجَيْنِ [i. e. Thin in the bones surrounding, or projecting over, the cavities of the eyes: in the TA, الهجاجين, an obvious mistranscription; and in the TK, الحجاجتين, which is also wrong]: on the authority of Kr: in the copies of the K, الحَاجِبَيْنِ.
3 And Narrow; applied to a place.
4 And i. q. ضَمِيرٌ [app. in the first of the senses assigned to the latter below]. (O, K: in the CK ضِمِّير.) See also. مُضْمَرٌ.
