From Edward William Lane, An Arabic-English Lexicon (1863–1893), under the root فوج. Digitised by the Perseus Project (Tufts); Arabic decoded from Perseus's transliteration.

فَاجَ , [aor. يَفُوجُ ,] said of musk, i. q. فَاحَ [i. e. It diffused, or exhaled, its odour]. (O, K.) ― -b2- And, said of the day, (tropical:) It became cool. (O, K, TA.) And one says, فَاجَتِ الشَّمْسُ عِنْدَ بَرْدِ النَّهَارِ (assumed tropical:) [The sun became moderated at the cool time of the day]. (O.)

لَسْتُ بِرَايءِحٍ حَتَّى أُفَوِّجَ means [I am not going in the evening] until I refresh myself by the coolness of the air. (K: there expl. by the words أَىْ أُبَرِّدَ عَنْ نَفْسِى [in which, for أُبَرِّدَ , I read أُبْرِدَ ]: in some copies [erroneously] عَلَى نفسى .)

افاج , (K,) inf. n. اـِفَاجَةٌ , (S,) He hastened, or went quickly; (S, K, and O and Msb in art. فيج :) and he ran. (S, K.) ― -b2- And افاج القَوْمُ فِى الأَرْضِ The people, or party, went away, and spread, or dispersed themselves, in the land. (L in art. فيج .) ― -b3- And افاج فِى عَدْوِهِ He was slow in his running. (L in art. فيج .) [Thus افاج has two contr. significations.] -A2- Also He sent the camels to the watering-trough, or tank, drove by drove. (O, * K.)

اُسْتُفِيجَ فُلَانٌ Such a one was desired, or incited, to be [quick, or] brisk, or prompt; syn. اُسْتُخِفَّ . (K, and O in art. فيج .)

فَوْجٌ A company, congregated body, party, or group, of men; (S, A, O, L, Msb, K; *) as also ↓ فَايءِجٌ , (L,) and ↓ فَايءِجَةٌ , (K,) and ↓ فَيْجٌ , (O, K, and Msb in art. فيج , q. v.,) which last is said by Az to be originally فَيِّجٌ , from فَاجَ , aor. يَفُوجُ , like هَيِّنٌ from هَانَ , aor. يَهُونُ , for which they say also هَيْنْ : (O, and Msb * in art. فيج :) or a crowd, or dense company &c.: (so accord. to an explanation of the first of the following pls. by Z in the Ksh and by Bd, both in Kur cx. 2:) or a company, &c., of the followers, or dependants, of chiefs: or a great crowd of men: (L:) [and app. (assumed tropical:) a multitude of things: (see an ex. voce أَفْكَلُ , in art. فكل :)] pl. [of pauc.] أَفْوَاجٌ [also used as a pl. of mult.] (S, O, Msb, K) and [of mult.] فُوءُوجٌ and pl. pl. أَفَاوِيجُ (S, O, Msb, K) and أَفَاوِجُ (S, O, K) and أَفَايءِجُ , as though pl. of أَفِيجَةٌ . (O.)

فَيْجٌ : see the next preceding paragraph: -A2- and see also art. فيج .

فَايءِجٌ : see فَوْجٌ . One says, مَرَّ بِنَا فَايءِجُ وَلِيمَةِ فُلَانٍ , meaning The company ( فَوْج ) of those that were at the repast of such a one [passed by us]. (TA.) -A2- It is said that فَايءِجٌ , applied to a she-camel, signifies Fat: or such as is termed حَايءِل , and fat: but the word commonly known [thus used] is فَايءِجٌ [q. v.]. (TA.)

فَايءِجَةٌ : see فَوْجٌ : -A2- and see also art. فيج .
