Full Definition
طِرَاقٌ
(of which طُرْقٌ is the pl. [app. in all its senses]) Any sole that is sewed upon another sole so as to make it double, matching the latter exactly: [this is called طِرَاقُ نَعْلٍ; for it is said that] طِرَاقُ النَّعْلِ signifies that with which the sole is covered, and which is sewed upon it.
2 And The skin [meaning sole] of a sandal, when the [thong, or strap, called] شِرَاك has been removed from it. El-Hárith Ibn-Hillizeh [in the 13th verse of his Mo'allakah, using it in a pl. sense,] applies it to the Soles that are attached to the feet of camels: or he there means by it the marks left by the طراق of a she-camel. And A piece of skin cut in a round form, of the size of a shield, and attached thereto, and sewed.
3 And Anything made to match, or correspond with, another thing.
4 Iron that is expanded, and then rounded, and made into a helmet or a [kind of armlet called] سَاعِد and the like. And Any قَبِيلَة [i. e. plate, likened to a قبيلة of the head,] of a helmet, by itself. And Plates, of a helmet, one above another.
5 رِيشٌ طِرَاقٌ Feathers overlying one another. And طَائِرٌ طِرَاقُ الرِّيشِ A bird whose feathers overlie one another.
def.2 Also A brand made upon the middle of the ear of a ewe, externally; being a white line, made with fire, resembling a track of a road: there are two such brands, called طِرَاقَانِ.
def.3 See also طِرِّيقَةٌ.
