يَرْنَأَ
Q. 1
(K, TA; in the CK, [erroneously,] تَرَنَّأَ;) He dyed his beard with يرنّأ. A strange verb as to its form, which [except in its final vowel] is that of an aorist, though it is a preterite. Mentioned in the L in art. رنأ , on the authority of IJ; and there also by ISd; and AHei and others assert the ى to be augmentative. [If so, the verb is a quasi-quadriliteral-radical word.] F follows Sgh, in mentioning it here.
