Full Definition

اصمغتIV The tree produced صَمْغ [i. e. gum].
2 Hence one says, يُصْمِغُ فُوهُ His mouth is discharging like a tree producing gum, and in like manner أُذُنَاهُ his two ears, and عَيْنَاهُ his two eyes, and أَنْفُهُ his nose. And اصمغ شِدْقُهُ The side of his mouth produced much spittle. And اصمغ الرَّجُلُ The man had foam coming forth upon the sides of his mouth. And اصمغت الشَّاةُ is said of the sheep or goat when her biestings are fresh (كَانَ لِبَؤُهَا طَرِيًّا, Ibn-'Abbád, O, TA, in the K لَبَنُهَا, but the former is the right, TA) [i. e. The sheep, or goat, yielded fresh biestings] on the first occasion of her being milked.
