Form: 2

Full Definition

التَّعْبِيقُII signifies التَّذْكِيَةُ [used in relation to wine, app. as meaning The becoming old; though the latter word, thus used, is probably tropical]. 'Adee Ibn-Zeyd says, describing wine, صَانَهَا التَّاجِرُ اليَهُودِىُّ حَوْلَيْ نِ فَأَذْكَى مِنْ نَشْرِهَا التَّعْبِيقُ [which seems to be cited as meaning, The Jewish merchant kept it two years, and the becoming old enhanced its fragrance: but I think that the last word may be more properly rendered the making it to remain long in its jar].
