طُمَّرٌ ذ i. q. أَصْلٌ; as also ↓ طِمَّوْرٌ : (O, K:) so the former signifies in the saying, لَأَرُدَّنَّهُ إِِلَى طُمَّرِهِ [app. meaning I will assuredly reduce him to the utmost point, or degree, to which he can be reduced: see a similar phrase voce أَصْلٌ]. (O, TA.) ― -b2- And one says, فُلَانٌ طُمَّرُ شَرٍّ Such a one is evil in the utmost degree. (IAar, T in art. درن.) ― -b3- And أَنْتَ فِى طُمَّرِكَ الَّذِى كُنْتَ فِيهِ, (so in copies of the K and in the TA,) or ↓ طُمُرِّكَ , (so in the O,) i. e. فِى غِرَّتِكَ وَجَهْلِكَ [Thou art in thy state of inexperience and ignorance in which thou wast formerly]: (O, K:) but [SM says] the right reading is فى غَرْبِكَ i. e. in thy [state of] sharpness, and briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness: in some copies of the K, عَزْمِكَ وَجَهْدِكَ; and in some, عُرْيِكَ وَجَهْدِكَ; which are both mistranscriptions: (TA:) a saying mentioned by Fr.
