رَنْقَةٌ
A small quantity of turbid water remaining in a watering-trough or tank. (TA.) [And according to Freytag,
رَنْقَاءُ occurs in the Deewán El-Hudhaleeyeen as meaning A small quantity of turbid water.] Accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, (TA,) one says, صَارَ المَاءُ رَنْقَةً, (K, TA,) or
رُوْنَقَةً, (JK, and so in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K,) meaning The water became such that mud predominated in it: (JK, K, TA:) but the correct phrase, as given in the “Nawádir” by Lh, is, صَارَ المَاءُ رَنْقَةً وَاحِدَةً [The water became one puddle in which mud predominated]. (TA.) See also رَنْقٌ.
