(K.) And in like manner خَلَأَ is said of a he-camel; (K;) according to ISh, only of a he-camel: (TA:) or the verb is used only in speaking of a female [when relating to a camel]: (K:) one should not say of a he-camel خَلَأَ: (Az, S, Z, Sgh:) but it is also said of a man, (K,) tropically, (TA,) verbal noun خُلُوْءٌ, meaning (tropical:) He moved not from his place.
