إِبْرَدَةُ

Root: برد

Full Definition

إِبْرَدَةُ , with kesr to the ء and the ر [in the CK اِبْرَدَة,] Cold in the belly, or inside; a well-known malady, arising from the prevalence of cold and humidity, and preventing one, by languor, from performing the act of coition: and a dripping of the urine, which prevents a man's taking pleasure in women.
2 Also Coldness of the damp earth, and of rain. An Arab says, إِنَّهَا لَبَارِدَةٌ اليَوْمَ [Verily it (the morning, الغَدَاةُ, L) is cold to-day]; and another says to him, لَيْسَتْ بِبَارِدَةٍ إِنَّمَا هِىَ إِبْرِدَةُ الثَّرَى [It is not cold: it is only the coldness of the damp earth].
