A bone of which the flesh has been [eaten or] thrown from it. (TA.)
2.
And A man having little flesh; (K;) and so مَعْرُوقُ العِظَامِ; (S, O, K;) and مُعْتَرَقٌ, (S, O, TA, [and probably in correct copies of the K, but in my MS. copy of it and in the CK مُعْتَرِقٌ, which does not accord. with any of the explanations of its verb,]) and العِظَامِ مُعْتَرَقُ; (TA;) and مُعَرَّقٌ, and مُعَرَّقُ العِظَامِ. (K.) And A horse having no flesh upon his قَصَب [meaning bones of the legs]; as also مُعْتَرَقٌ. (TA.) And مَعْرُوقُ الخَدَّيْنِ, applied to a horse, in which the quality denoted thereby is approved, Having no flesh in the cheeks: (TA:) and الخَدَّيْنِ مُعَرَّقُ a man having little flesh in the cheeks: (S, O:) and القَدَمَيْنِ مُعَرَّقُ, (K and TA in article نهس,) and الكَعْبَيْنِ, a man having little flesh upon the feet, and upon the ankle-bones: (TA in that article:) and مُعَرَّقٌ applied to a horse signifies مُضَمَّرٌ [i. e. rendered lean, or light of flesh, probably by being made to sweat, agreeably with an explanation of the latter epithet, and thus radically differing from مَعْرُوقٌ and مُعْتَرَقٌ]. (TA.)
