نَاعِرٌ

Full Definition

نَاعِرٌ Uttering a sound or noise [with, or in, the خَيْشُوم, or innermost part of the nose]. And نَعَّارٌ Clamorous: , applied to a woman, and signifying the same: or, so applied, it signifies clamorous and foul, or immodest: and إِمْرَأَةٌ غَيْرَى a [very jealous] clamorous woman; in which phrase, نعرى may not be regarded as fem. of نَعْرَانُ, because [epithets of the measures] فَعْلَانُ and فَعْلَى come from verbs of the class of فَرِحَ; not from those of the class of مَنَعَ [or that of ضَرَبَ].
2 [And so] نَعَّارٌ One who drives away the beasts and cries out after them. (TA, art. زغق.)
3 You say also, صَوْتًا أَطْرَتُ بِهٰذَا [lit., I made a clamorous voice to fly with this; meaning,] I published this.
4 Also نَاعِرٌ A vein flowing with blood: [or gushing with blood; &c. ] And نَعَّارٌ A vein gushing with blood; and so نَعُورٌ : that does not cease to flow with blood; as also نَعُورٌ and نَاعُورٌ : and نَعَّارٌ applied to a wound signifies the same; as also تَعَّارٌ, with ت and ع, and , with ت and غ: and نَعُورٌ applied to a wound signifies making a sound by reason of the vehemence with which the blood comes forth.
