سِمَةٌ [A mark, sign, or token, by which a person or thing is known; a cognizance, or badge; a characteristic; an indication; a symptom]; (K; [see also مَعْلَمٌ;]) and

أُعْلُومَةٌ , as in the saying
بَيْنَ القَوْمِ أُعْلُومَةٌ [Among the people, or party, is a mark, sign, or token]; and the pl. of this last is أَعَالِيمُ: the pl. of عَلَامَةٌ is عَلَامَاتٌ and [the coll. gen. n.]
عَلَامٌ , differing from عَلَامَةٌ only by the apocopating of the ة.
