زرّق

Root: زرق

Form: 2

Full Definition

زرّقII , accord. to Golius, as on the authority of the KL, “ i. q. Pers. چكانيد, Fecit ut stillaret, stillatim emisit: ” but it appears from my copy of the KL that this should be زهّق; for I there find تَزْهِيقٌ (not تَزْرِيقٌ) expl. by the Pers. چكانيدن: then, however, immediately follows, in that copy, another explanation:
2 and The shifting backwards of a camel's saddle from his back: therefore it seems that either تَزْرِيقٌ is there omitted before this second explanation, or تَزْهِيقٌ is there a mistake for تَزْرِيقٌ.]
