مَا أَعِيجُ بِهِ

1.
, (Lth, O, K, TA,) verbal noun عَيْجٌ (Lth, O, TA *) and عُيُوجٌ (Lth, O, TA) and عُوُوجٌ [apparently عُوءُوجٌ], (TA,) I do not regard it; do not care for it. (Lth, O, TA.) One says, مَا عَاجَ بِقَوْلِهِ, verbal noun عَيْجٌ and عَيْجُوجَةٌ, He did not regard his saying: or he did not believe it. (ISd, TA.) And مَا أَعِيجُ مِنْ كَلَامِهِ بِشَىْءٍ I care not for anything of his speech, or of what he says: (Fr, ISk, S, O:) and the Benoo-Asad say, مَا أَعُوجُ بِكَلَامِهِ [explained in article عوج]; taking it from عُجْتُ النَّاقَةَ. (ISk, S.)

مَا عِجْتُ بِهِ I was not pleased, well pleased, content, or satisfied, with it; or did not approve it. (IAar, S, O, K.)

مَا عِجْتُ بِالمَاءِ I did not satisfy my thirst with the water: (S, O, K, TA:) said by one who has drunk salt water: (S, O, TA:) or I did not profit by it: and sometimes the verb is used in this sense in an affirmative phrase. (TA.) And مَا عِجْتُ بِالدَّوَاءِ I did not profit by the medicine. (S, O, K.) And عاج, aorist يَعِيجُ, [thus used affirmatively,] He profited by speech, &c. (TA.)

مَا يَعِيجُ بِقَلْبِى شَيءٌ مِنْ كَلَامِكَ [apparently meaning Nothing of thy speech remains in my heart, or mind, (compare عُجْتُ بِالمَكَانِ, in article عوج,)] is a saying mentioned by IAar. (TA.)
6.
[And it seems that عاج عَلَى الشَّيءِْ signifies He took to, set about, or commenced, the thing: for Sgh says that] العَيْجُ signifies الإِقْبَالُ عَلَى الشَّيءِْ. (O.)
