دَغَاوِلُ

Root: دغل

Full Definition

دَغَاوِلُ Calamities, or misfortunes: erroneously written by J دَوَاغِل, and so by IF in the Mj, as on the authority of A 'Obeyd, who said only دَغَاوِل, and thus it is in a verse of Sakhr El-Hudhalee: [but in one of my copies of the S it is written دَغَاوِل:] it has no sing.: or, as El-Bekree says, its sing. is not known: but some say that it is دغولة [thus without any syll. signs].
