بندق بنصر بنفسج


بِنْصِرٌ

بِنْصِرٌ The finger that is next to the little finger; (Ṣ in art. بصر;) [the third finger;] that which is between the little and middle fingers: (Mṣb in art. بصر, and Ḳ:) of the fem. gender: (Ḳ:) pl. بَنَاصِرُ, (Ṣ,) or بَنَاصِرَةٌ. (Mṣb.) Accord. to the author of the Ḳ, the ن is a radical letter, and therefore the mention of this word in art. بصر is wrong. (TA.)
