Full Definition
رُقَارِقٌ
: see رَقِيقٌ, first sentence: and رُقٌّ. Also, applied to the سَرَاب [or mirage], or شَرَاب [i. e. wine or beverage], [the former of which readings I think the more probably that which is correct, supposing the mirage to be likened to shallow water, which is thus termed, but Freytag prefers the latter reading,] i. q.
رَقِقُ [app. as meaning Shallow, or perhaps thin]; and so
رَقْرَاقٌ .
2 And A sword having much مَآء [q. v.; i. e. much diversified with wavy marks, streaks, or grain; or having much lustre]: or shining, or glistening, much.
