Full Definition
مُعَلْهَجٌ
[mentioned in the O and K in art. علهج] One whose father is free, or an Arab, and whose mother is a slave; syn. هَجِينٌ: or one who claims as his father a person who is not his father; or who is claimed as a son by a person who is not his father: and one born of two different races: or one born of a slave the daughter of a female slave: or, accord. to ISd, one who is not of pure race: a low, a vile, or an ignoble, man; foolish, or stupid, or deficient in intellect; a frivolous babbler. F charges J with error in asserting the ه to be augmentative; but all the authorities on inflection assert the same thing.
