Full Definition

تبالغVI The tan attained its utmost effect in the skin. And تبالغ فِيهِ الهَّمُ, and المَرَضَ, Anxiety, or disquietude of mind, or grief, attained its utmost degree in him, and so disease, or the disease. [This verb seems properly to signify It reached, or attained, by degrees.]

def.2 تبالغ فِى كَلَامِهِ He affected eloquence (بَلَاغَة) in his speech, not being of those characterized thereby: [whence] one says, مَا هُوَ بِبَلِيغٍ وَلٰكِنْ يَتَبَالِغُ [He is not eloquent, but he affects eloquence].
