دَامِرٌ دامر A man in a state of perdition, in whom is no good. (M.) And رَجُلٌ خَاسِرٌ دَامِرٌ (Yaakoob, T, M, A) and ↓ خَسِرٌ وَدَمِرٌ (Lh, T, M) [A man erring and perishing]: Lh says that ↓ دَمِرٌ in the latter phrase is an imitative sequent to خَسِرٌ: but [ISd says,] I think that خَسِرٌ is a verbal epithet, and دَمِرٌ a possessive epithet. (M.) [See also art. خسر.]
