Root: جبه

Full Definition

جَبِيهَةٌ We came to a water that was salt, so that the drinking thereof did not take away the thirst of our cattle: or that was altered for the worse in taste and colour, from some such cause as long standing, though still drinkable; or covered with the green substance called طُحْلُب and with leaves: or that was deep in the bottom, difficult to give to drink. [See also 1, last meaning but one.]
