فُقْوَةٌ

The فُوق [or notch] of the arrow; (S, K, TA;) i. e. the part which is the place of the bowstring: (TA:) [also called فُوقَةٌ, from which it is apparently formed by transposition, like the other words mentioned in this article:] plural فُقًى, (S, K,) also written فُقًا. (TA.) An example of the plural occurs in a verse cited in article عرقب, voce عُرْقُوبٌ. (S.)
