📖 Lane's Lexicon (Root: طعم)

[1] طَعِمَهُ , aor. طَعَمَ , inf. n. طَعْمٌ and طَعَامٌ, He ate it; namely, food: (K, * TA:) and طَعِمَ, aor. as above, inf. n. طُعْمٌ, with damm, he tasted [a thing]: (K:) or طَعِمَ, aor. as above, (S, Mgh, * Msb,) inf. n. طُعْمٌ, with damm, (S,) or طَعْمٌ, with fet-h, (Msb,) or both, (Mgh,) and مَطْعَمٌ also is an inf. n. of the same verb, (TA,) signifies he ate, (S, Mgh, Msb, *) a thing, (Mgh,) and [app. also he swallowed, for it is said that] it applies to anything that is swallowed easily or agreeably, even to water: (Msb:) and he tasted (S, Mgh, Msb) a thing; (Mgh, Msb;) as also ↓ تطعّم; (S, Mgh, K;) [i. e.] this latter verb signifies he tasted food in order that he might know its flavour; and so ↓ استطعم: (Msb:) and طَعِمَ as meaning he tasted may be used in relation to that which is eaten and to that which is drunk. (L.) Hence, in the Kur [xxxiii. 53], فَإِذَا طَعِمْتُمْ فَٱنْتَشِرُوا And when ye shall have eaten [disperse yourselves]. (S, * TA.) And you say, فُلَانٌ قَلَّ طُعْمُهُ, meaning [Such a one,] his eating [was, or became, little]. (S.) The saying in the Kur [ii. 250], وَمَنْ لَمْ يَطْعَمْهُ فَإِنَّهُ مِنِّى means But whoso does not taste it, (S, Msb, * TA,) he is of my followers, (Bd, Jel,) or is at one, or in union, with me: (Bd:) or, accord. to Zj, the meaning is, لَمْ يَتَطَعَّمْ ↓ بِهِ [app. meaning does not refresh himself with it as though with food]: (TA:) or, as some say, the passage in which it occurs denotes a prohibition to take aught save as much as is laded out with the hand; and when water has with it something that is chewed, one says of it يُطْعَمُ. (Er-Rághib, TA.) تَطَعَّمْ ↓ تَطْعَمْ i. e. Taste thou, (S, Mgh, K,) then thou wilt have desire, or appetence, (Mgh,) or so that thou mayest have desire, or appetence, and mayest eat; (S, K;) or taste thou the food, for it will induce thee to eat it; (IB, TA;) is a prov., (IB, Mgh, TA,) said to him who refrains from an affair; meaning, commence it, for thy doing so will invite thee to finish it. (IB, TA.) ― 2-b2- الطَّعْمُ signifies also The eating with the central incisors: one says, إِنَّهُ لَيَطْعَمُ طَعْمًا حَسَنًا [Verily he eats well with the central incisors]. (TA.) ― 2-b3- مَا يَطْعَمُ آكِلُ هٰذَا الطَّعَامِ, (K, * TA,) a phrase mentioned by ISh, (TA,) means (tropical:) The eater of this food does not become satisfied in stomach. (K, * TA.) ― 2-b4- طَعِمَ said of a branch, or shoot, (tropical:) It received ingraftment. (ISh, K, TA.) ― 2-b5- And [hence, perhaps,] طَعِمَتْ عَيْنُهُ (assumed tropical:) [His eye had a mote cast into it: see 4]. (TA.) ― 2-b6- طَعِمَ عَلَيْهِ, (K, TA,) inf. n. طُعْمٌ, (K, * TA,) which, in the K, is improperly disjoined from its verb, [as though it were a simple subst.,] (TA,) i. q. قَدَرَ [i. e. He had power over him, or it; or he had power, or ability, to do it, &c.]. (K, TA.)
