رَنْقٌ

1.
Turbid, thick, or muddy, water; (S, K;) as also رَنِقٌ and رَنَقٌ. (K.)
2.
Also (TA) Dust in water, consisting of motes, or particles of rubbish, and the like, that fall into it [and render it turbid]; (JK, TA;) and so رَنَقٌ. (JK.) Accord. to IB, رَنْقٌ has for plural رَنَايءِقُ; as though this were plural of رَنِيقَةٌ: (TA:) or الرَّيَانِقُ is plural of المَاءِ رَنْقَةُ, (Ibn-'Abbád, K, TA,) or of رَنْقَةٌ, (JK,) and is formed by transposition, (JK, Ibn- 'Abbád, K, TA,) being originally الرَّنَايءِقُ. (Ibn- 'Abbád, TA.) One says, مَا فِى عَيْشِهِ رَنَقٌ (assumed tropical:) [There is not in his life anything that renders it turbid]. (JK.)
3.
Also (assumed tropical:) Lying, or falsehood, or a lie; synonym كَذِبٌ. (TA.)
