Full Definition
صَنْفِىٌّ
A species, or sort, of
عُودُ الطِّيبِ [i. e. aloes-wood] not of good quality: or one of the worst kinds of
عُود, little differing from
خَشَب [i. e. wood used in carpentry and the like]: or inferior to the
قَمَارِىّ
and superior to the
قَاقُلِّىّ: used for fumigating therewith: so called in relation to a place [the situation of which I am unable to determine with certainty: see, respecting it, note 12 to ch. xx. of my Translation of the Thousand and One Nights].
