The former of these pls. occurs in the Ḳur l. 10, meaning tall: (Ṣ, Bḍ, TA:) or bearing fruit; from أَبْسَقَتْ said of a ewe, as signifying “she was, or became, pregnant;” so that it is an instance of a part. n. of the measure فَاعِلٌ from a verb of the measure أَفْعَلَ: accord. to one reading, it is بَاصِقَات, because of the ق.
