(TA.) It is said in a prov., كَفَى بِرُغَايءِهَا مُنَادِيًا [Her grumbling cry suffices as a caller] i. e., the رُغَاء of his camel serves instead of his calling in presenting himself for entertainment as a guest: (S:) A'Obeyd says that it is well known to the Arabs as relating to the accomplishment of an object of want before the asking for it: and it is applied also to the case of a man whose aid is wanted and who does not come to thee; excusing himself by saying that he did not know: and to the case of one who stands at a man's door, and to whom it is said, “ Send him who shall ask permission for thee [to go in]; ” whereupon he replies, “ His knowledge of my standing at his door suffices for asking permission for me: if he pleased, he would grant me permission. ” (Meyd. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 328—9.]) And in another prov., البَكْرِ ↓ كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ كَرَاغِيَةِ, (JK, Meyd,) or السَّقْبِ, [i. e. There befell them the like of the grumbling cry of the young camel,] meaning, the رُغَاء of the young camel of Thamood [which preceded the destruction of those who heard it]: the prov. relates to the auguring evil from a thing. (Meyd. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 327.]) رَغَا said of a boy, or child, means (tropical:) He wept most violently. (K, TA.) [It is also, app., said of a man, as meaning (assumed tropical:) He shouted: and (assumed tropical:) he spoke with a loud voice. (See 6, and رَغَّاءٌ.)] -A2- See also 2.)

He made his she-camel to utter the grumbling cry termed رُغَاء: (S, K:) [and] he made his camel to do so in order that he might be entertained as a guest. (M, TA. [See a prov. cited in the first paragraph.]) Sebrah Ibn-'Amr El-Fak'asee says,

وَمَا يُرْغَى لِشَدَّادٍ فَصِيلُ

[And a young camel belonging to the family of Sheddád is not made to utter its grumbling cry for the want of its mother]; meaning that they are niggardly; that they will not separate the young camel from its mother by slaughter nor by gift. (S.) And it is said in a prov.,

أَرْغُوا لَهَا حُوَارَهَا تَقِرُّ

[Make ye her (the camel's) young one to utter its grumbling cry, then she will be quiet]: for the she-camel when she hears the رُغَاء of her young one becomes still: (Meyd:) the prov. means, give him that which he wants, [then] he will be quiet. (JK, Meyd. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 532.]) أَرْغَوْا لِلرَّحِيلِ means They made their saddle-camels to utter the grumbling cry [for removal, or departure, or journeying]; camels being wont to do so when the loads are lifted upon them. (TA.) Hence, ارغاهُ (assumed tropical:) He subdued, subjected, or oppressed, him; and abased him: because the camel [generally] does not utter the cry termed رُغَاء except in consequence of abasement, or humiliation. (TA.) [Hence also,] هِىَ مَلِيكَةُ الإِرْغَاءِ (assumed tropical:) She is the slave (مَلِيكَة meaning مَمْلُوكَة) of noise and loquacity, so that she distresses the hearers: or it may mean [she is subject to] the frothing of her lips, by reason of her loquacity; from رَغْوَةٌ meaning “ froth. ” (TA. [See رَغَّاءٌ.]) You say also, مَا أَثْغَى وَلَا أَرْغَى He gave not a sheep or goat, nor a she-camel; (S, K;) like as you say, مَا أَحْشَى وَلَا أَجَلَّ. (S. [See 4 in art. ثغو.]) -A2- See also 2, in two places. [Hence,] ارغى said of him who is discharging his urine, (tropical:) He had much froth to his urine. (K, TA.) [Hence also,] تُرْغِينَا سُقَاطَ حَدِيثِهَا, a phrase used by a poet, means (assumed tropical:) She feeds us with [or gives us] little discourse, [or the refuse of her discourse,] like froth. (TA.)

It is said in a prov., يُسِرُّ حَسْوًا فِى ارْتِغَاءٍ [He conceals a sipping, or supping, in drinking froth]: applied to him who pretends one thing when he means, or desires, another: (S:) accord. to AZ and As, it originated from a man's having some milk brought to him, and his pretending that he desired the froth, and, while drinking this, taking of the milk; and is applied to a man who pretends to aid thee, and benefits himself: (Meyd:) Esh-Shaabee, to one who asked him respecting a man who kissed his wife's mother, replied in these words; and added, “ His wife has become unlawful to him. ” (S.)
