Root: وقر

Full Definition

مُوقَرٌ [Laden;] having a load: or [heavily laden;] having a heavy load: [as also مَوْقُورٌ :] applied to a man: and also [the former] applied to a woman, in the same sense: or you apply to a woman the epithet مُوقَرَةٌ, meaning, bearing a heavy burden. You say also دَابَّةٌ وَقْرَى , meaning [A beast of carriage laden: or heavily laden]: but ISd holds that وَقْرَى is used elliptically, for ذَاتُ وَقْرَى, and is an Verbal.Noun, of the measure فَعْلَى, like حَلْقَى and عَقْرَى. [ مَوْقُورٌ , in the same sense, is also applied to a ship; as in the Expos. of the Jel, ii. 159.]
2 نَخْلَةٌ مُوقَرَةٌ, and , and مُوقِرٌ , like as one says, إِمْرَأَةٌ حَامِلٌ, and مُوقَرٌ, which is anomalous, and مِيقَارٌ , and , and , A palm-tree laden, or heavily laden, with fruit; abounding in fruit: pl. [of the first, second, third, and fourth,] مَوَاقِرُ, and [of ميقار and موقورة,] مَوَاقِيرُ.
3 See also وَقِيرٌ.
