1 غَرِقَ ذ , (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) aor. غَرَقَ , (Mgh, Msb,) inf. n. غَرَقٌ , (S, Mgh, O, Msb,) He, or it, (a thing, Msb,) sank, syn. غَارَ , (Mgh,) or رَسَبَ , (TA,) فِى المَآءِ [ in water, or in the water ]: (S, Mgh, O, Msb:) primarily [ he drowned; i. e. he sank under water, and ] the water entered the two apertures of his nose so that it filled its passages and he died. (TA.) -b2- [Hence,] غَرِقَ فِى البِلَادِ , inf. n. as above, * He (a man) went downwards and disappeared ( رَسَبَ ) in the lands, or tracts of land. (TA.) -A2- غَرَقَ , (thus in the O,) or غَرِقَ , like فَرِحَ , (thus accord. to the K,) He drank a [ draught such as is termed ] غُرْقَة : (O, K:) so says IAar. (O.) And غَرَقْتُ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ , (O, and thus in copies of the K, in the CK غَرِقْتُ ,) or غَرَقْتُ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ غُرْقَةً , (TA,) I took a [ draught such as is termed ] كُثْبَة of the milk: (O, K, TA:) so says Ibn-'Abbád. (O, TA.) -A3- And غَرِقَ He was, or became, without want, or need. (IAar, O, K.) -A4- غَرْقًا used in the sense of إِغْرَاقًا , see under 4.

2 غَرَّقَ see 4, first sentence. -b2- Hence تَغْرِيقٌ became used to signify (tropical:) Any killing: the origin of its being thus used being the fact that the midwife used to drown the new-born infant in the fluid of the secundine in the year of drought, (S, O, K, TA,) whether it were a male or female, (S, O, TA,) so that it died: (S, O, K, TA:) or it is from the phrase غَرَّقَتِ القَابِلَةُ الوَلَدَ meaning (tropical:) The midwife was ungentle with the child [ at the birth ] so that the [ fluid called ] سَابِيَآء entered its nose and killed it: or, accord. to the A, غَرَّقَتِ القَابِلَةُ المَوْلُودَ means the midwife did not remove from out of the nose of the new-born infant the mucus, so that it entered into the air-passages of the nose and killed it. (TA.) Hence the saying of Dhu-r-Rummeh, إِذَا غَرَّقَتْ أَرْبَاضُهَا ثِنْىَ بَكْرَةٍ بِتَيْهَآءَ لَمْ تُصْبِحْ رَؤُومًا سَلُوبُهَا i. e. When her ropes [with which her saddle is bound] kill a youthful she-camel's second young one, [and she casts it in consequence, in a desert in which one loses his way, ] she [ who is bereft of it ] does not become one that shows affection for her offspring, by reason of the fatigue that has come upon her: (S, O, TA:) for, as is said in the T, where this verse is cited, when the saddle is bound on the she-camel that has been ten months pregnant, sometimes the fœtus becomes drowned in the fluid of the سَابِيَآء , and she casts it. (TA.) -b3- غُرِّقَ , said of a bridle, [and of the scabbard of a sword, as also , (see مُغَرَّقٌ ,)] signifies (tropical:) It was ornamented, or was ornamented in a general manner, with silver.

(TA.) -b3- And اغرقهُ النَّاسُ (assumed tropical:) The people multiplied against him and overcame him: and in like manner, أَغْرَقَتْهُ السِّبَاعُ (assumed tropical:) [ The beasts of prey multiplied against him &c.] so says IAar.

(O, TA. *) -b5- اغرق الكَأْسَ means (tropical:) He filled the كأس [or wine-cup ].

Accord. to the copies of the K, اغترقت الَّفْسُ , meaning اِسْتَوْعَبَت : but this is a mistake: the correct phrase is اغترق النَّفَسَ , the latter word مُحَرَّكَة [and in the accus. case]; and the explanation, اِسْتَوْعَبَهُ فِى الزَّفِيرِ .
