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

وَلَجَ , aor. يَلِجُ , inf. n. وُلُوجٌ and لِجَةٌ ; and ↓ اـِتَّلَجَ ; (S, K;) and ↓ تولّج ; (L;) He, or it, entered. (S, K.) You say وَلَجَ البَيْتَ , and ↓ اتّلجه , and ↓ تولّجهُ , He entered the house. (L.) And وَلَجَ الشَّىْءُ فِى غَيرِهِ The thing entered into another thing. (Msb.) As is said in the S and L, Sb says that وَلَجَ has for its inf. n. وُلُوجٌ , which is of one of the measures of the inf. ns. of intrans. verbs, because the meaning [of وَلَجْتُ البَيْتَ ] is وَلَجْتُ فِيهِ : and it is said in the M, that Sb holds the intermediate particle to be dropped: but Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed holds the verb to be trans. without an intermediate particle. MF observes, that Sb's words appear to make ولج a trans. verb, which no one asserts it to be: that if he mean that it has as its complement a noun in the acc. case as an adverbial noun of place, it is like دَخَلْتُ and other intrans. verbs: but if he mean that it governs a simple objective complement, like ضَرَبْتُ زَيْدًا , his opinion is not correct. (TA.)

اولج , (S, K,) inf. n. اـِيلَاجٌ ; (Msb;) and ↓ اـِتَّلَجَ , as in the CK and in several MS. copies of the K) or أَتْلَجَ , (as in the L, and all the copies of the K consulted by SM, in this art., and in art. تلج ,) in which ت is substituted for و , and this is the correct reading; (TA;) He, or it, caused to enter; introduced; inserted. (S, K.) ― -b2- The expression in the Kur. [xxii. 60; and other chapters,] يُولِجُ ا@للَّيلَ فِى النَّهَارِ وَيُولِجُ النَّهَارَ فِى ا@للَّيْلِ signifies He maketh the night, by increasing it, to enter into, [or encroach upon,] the day, and maketh the day, in like manner, to enter into, [or encroach upon,] the night: (Jel:) or He increaseth the night with a part of the day, by taking from the latter and adding to the former, and in like manner increaseth the day with a part of the night. (S.) ― -b3- [ اولج is often used for اولج ذكره ; and hence as meaning Inivit.]

تَوَلَّجَ see 1.

اـِوْتَلَجَ see 1 and 4.

رَجُلٌ خُرَجَةٌ وُلَجَهٌ , (S,) and ↓ خَرَّاجٌ وَلَّاجٌ , and ↓ خَرُوجٌ وَلُوجٌ , (TA,) A man frequently going, or coming, out and in. (S, TA.) [This is the primary meaning: for others see art. خرج .]

وَلَجَةٌ A place, (S,) or a cavern, in which passengers shelter themselves from rain &c.: pl. أَوْلَاجٌ and وَلَجٌ , (S, K,) [or rather the latter, which is omitted in the CK, is a coll. gen. n., of which ولجة is the n. un.] or وُلُجٌ . (L.) ― -b2- Also, A bend, or place of bending, of a valley: (IAar:) pl. as above. (K.)

وَلُوجٌ and وَلَّاجٌ : see وُلْجَةٌ .

وَلِيجَةٌ Anything that is introduced, or inserted, into a thing, and that does not belong to it: any such thing is termed a وليجة of a thing. (A'Obeyd.) ― -b2- هُوَ وَلِيجَتُهُمْ He is an adherent to them; (K;) one who has entered, or become introduced, or included, among them,] and not belonging to them. (TA.) Pl. وَلَايءِجُ . (TA.) ― -b3- وَلِيجَةٌ (assumed tropical:) A particular, or special, intimate, friend, or associate, of a man; syn. خَاصَّةٌ (S, K) and بِطَانَةٌ (S) and دَخِيلَةٌ : (K:) by these syns. A'Obeyd explains it in the Kur. ix. 16: and it is applied to one and to more than one: (TA:) or one whom a person takes to rely upon, or to place confidence in, not being of his family: (K:) and so some explain the word in the verse above referred to: (TA:) or it there signifies an intimate friend who is one of the polytheists. (Fr.)

وَالِجَةٌ i. q. دُبَيْلَةٌ , (K,) i. e., A certain disease in the belly. (TA.) A pain that attacks a man; or a pain in a man; وَجَعٌ يَأْخُذُ الاـِنْسَانَ , (so in two copies of the S, and in the L,) or وَجَعٌ فِى الاـِنْسَانِ : (so in the TA and a MS. copy of the K:) or a pain that attacks the teeth; or a pain in the teeth; وجع يأخذ الأَسْنَانَ , (so in a copy of the S,) or وجع فى الأَسْنَانِ . (So in the CK.)

أَوْلَجُ [More, or most, penetrating]: applied to language or discourse. [TA, in art. جمع : see an ex. voce مُجْمَعٌ .]

تَوْلَجٌ The hiding place of a wild beast, (or antelope, TA,) among trees, (S, K,) into which he enters ( الَّذِى يَلِج فِيهِ ); like دَوْلَجٌ : the ت , says Sb, is substituted for و , and the word is of the measure فَوْعَلٌ ; for تَفْعَلٌ is scarcely found in Arabic as the measure of a subst., whereas فَوْعَلٌ is frequent. (S.)

مَوْلِجٌ A place of entrance; a place into which one enters: (TA:) pl. مَوَالِجُ . (S.) [See its contr. مَخْرَجٌ .]

مَوْلُوجٌ A man attacked by the disease called وَالِجَة , or دُبَيْلَة . (K, TA.)
