طَافِلَةٌ

Root: طفل

Full Definition

طَافِلَةٌ[ , which Golius explains as meaning “ i. q. فَايِدَةٌ et خَيْرٌ, utilitas, bonum, ” referring to the KL as his authority, is evidently a mistake for طَائِلٌ, expl. as meaning فَائِدَةٌ and خَيْرٌ in my copy of the KL, which does not mention طَافِلَةٌ in any sense.]
