جَرْحٌ

جَرْحٌ: see the next paragraph.


جُرْحٌ

جُرْحٌ a subst. from جَرَحَ; (Ṣ, L, Ḳ;) A wound; (L;) and soجَرْحٌ↓, in its original acceptation; but some of those skilled in the science of lexicology say that the former is employed to denote the effect produced upon bodies by iron instruments and the like; and the latter, that produced upon objects of the mind by the tongue: (MF:) the pl. of the former is جُرُوحٌ and أَجْرَاحٌ [which is a pl. of pauc.] (Ṣ, L, Ḳ) and جِرَاحٌ; (T, A, L;) but the second of these is of rare occurrence, (Ḳ,) only used in poetry: (Ṣ, L:) [respecting the third, see what follows:] جِرَاحَةٌ↓ also signifies the same as جُرْحٌ; (Mṣb;) and its pl. is جِرَاحٌ (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ) and جِرَاحَاتٌ (A, Mṣb) and جَرَائِحُ; (A;) or جِرَاحٌ is a coll. gen. n., of which جِرَاحَةٌ is the n. un.; or, accord. to Az, this last has not a sing. sense, as Lth asserts it to have, but is a pl. of جُرْحٌ, like as حِجَارَةٌ is of حَجَرٌ, and جِمَالَةٌ of جَمَلٌ, and حِبَالَةٌ of حَبْلٌ. (L.)


جُرْحَةٌ

جُرْحَةٌA thing whereby testimony is invalidated, or its claim to be legally credible annulled: as in the saying, هَلْ لَكَ جُرْحَةٌ[Hast thou anything to adduce whereby to invalidate the testimony?]. (A, TA.) أَقْصَصْتُكَ الجُرْحَةَ فَإِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَكَ مَا تَجْرَحُ بِهِ الحُجَّةَ فَهَلُمَّهَا, said by the judge of El-Medeeneh to one of the parties in a lawsuit, when about to give judgment against him, means ‡ I authorize thee to adduce anything whereby to invalidate the testimony: [therefore, if thou have anything whereby thou mayest invalidate the allegation, adduce it.] (A,* TA.)


جَرِيحٌ

جَرِيحٌ; pl. جَرْحَى; (Ṣ, A, Mṣb, Ḳ;) each of which is masc. and fem.; (Ṣ, Ḳ;) Wounded. (Mṣb.) The pl. is not formed by the addition of و and ن because the fem. is not formed by the addition of ة. (TA.)
