الدَّهْمَانُ الدهمان The night: opposed to الوَضَّاحُ meaning “ the day. ” (L in art. وضح .)

(K.) And وَطْأَةٌ دَهْمَا=ءُ A new, or recent, footstep, or footprint: and غَبْرَا=ءُ means “becoming effaced:” or the former means one that is becoming effaced, because it has become obscure to him who seeks it; (JK;) or an old footstep, or footprint: and حَمْرَا=ءُ means one that is “new, or recent.” (S.)
