1 شَرَمَهُ ذ , (S, K,) aor. شَرِمَ , (K,) inf. n. شَرْمٌ, i. q. شَقَّهُ [meaning He slit it; or rent it; and perhaps also he clave it, split it, &c.]. (S, K.) ― -b2- It is also said in the K that الشَّرْمُ signifies قَطْعُ مَا بَيْنَ الأَرْنَبَةِ: but ما بين should be struck out: and the passage, moreover, is defective: it should be, as in the M, الشَّرْمُ and ↓ التَّشْرِيمُ signify The cutting (قَطْع [or rather شَقّ i. e. slitting or rending]) of the end, or tip, of the nose, and of the ثَفْر [here meaning the vulva, or the orifice of the vagina,] of a she-camel: specially said of these two things. (TA. [See also 2; and see شَرِيمٌ.]) ― -b3- شَرَمَ الثَّرِيدَةَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, and the latter, by poetic license, شَرَمٌ, He ate of the sides, or of the edge, of the ثريدة [or mess of crumbled bread moistened with broth]. (TA.) ― -b4- شَرَمَ لَهُ مِنْ مَالِهِ, (S, K,) aor. as above, (K,) and so the inf. n., (TA,) He gave him little of his مال (i. e. property, or cattle]. (S, K.) -A2- شَرِمَ, aor. شَرَمَ , is quasi-pass. of شَرَمَهُ; [i. e. it signifies It was, or became, slit, or rent;] (TA;) as also ↓ انشرم . (S, TA. [In the former it is implied that the meaning of the latter verb is اِنْشَقَّ.]) ― -b2- Also, aor. as above, (Msb,) inf. n. شَرَمٌ, (S, * Msb, K, *) He (a man) had his nose slit: (Msb:) or he had the end, or tip, of his nose cut. (S, * Msb, K. *) 2 تَشْرِيمٌ ذ i. q. تَشْقِيقٌ [meaning The slitting, or rending, and perhaps also cleaving, splitting, &c., much, or in several places]: (S, K, TA: [see 2 in art. خرم:]) one says, شرّمهُ [he slit it &c.], in relation to the ear &c.: (TA:) [it is used in relation to the end, or tip, of the nose; and to the orifice of the vagina of a she-camel; as shown above:] see 1, second sentence. تَشْرِيمُ الظِّئَارِ is [The scarifying of the vulva, or of the orifice of the vagina, for the purpose of] the making a she-camel to affect and suckle a young one not her own [by causing her to imagine, from the pain thus occasioned, that she has recently brought forth that young one]; (TA;) تشريم in this phrase signifying تَشْقِيق. (T in art. ظأر.) It is said in a trad. of Ibn-'Omar, that he purchased a she-camel, and, seeing in her what is thus termed, returned her: (S:) in this instance, تشريم الظئار means The laceration of the two edges of the vulva on the occasion of ظئار. (T and TA in art. ظأر: see 1 in that art.) ― -b2- تَشْرِيمُ الصَّيْدِ is The wounding of the skin of the animal of the chase without piercing into the belly, or inside, (L in art. حق, [see 8 in that art.,]) so that the animal escapes wounded. (S, K. *) 5 تشرّم ذ , (S, K,) said of the skin, (TA,) or of a thing, (S,) It was, or became, rent, or slit, in several places; (S, K, TA;) quasi-pass. of شَرَّمَهُ. (TA.) It is said in a trad. of Kaab, أَتَى عُمَرَ بِكِتَابٍ قَدْ تَشَرَّمَتْ نَوَاحِيهِ i. e. تَشَقَّقَتْ [meaning He brought to 'Omar a book of which the sides were slit, or rent, in several places]. (TA.) 7 إِِنْشَرَمَ see 1, near the end. شَرْمٌ ذ A canal, or cut, (خَلِيج,) from a بَحْر [i. e. sea, or large river]: (S, K:) [now applied to a creek of a sea:] or the لُجَّة [i. e. main body, or fathomless deep,] of the بَحْر [or sea]: (K:) or the deepest part thereof: (TA:) or a غَمْرَة [or submerging deep] thereof: pl. شُرُومٌ.

(S.) شَرُومٌ ذ : see what next follows. شَرِيمٌ ذ A woman having her vagina and rectum united by the rending of the separation between them; syn. مُفْضَاةٌ; (S, Mgh, K;) as also ↓ شَرُومٌ , (S, K,) and ↓ شَرْمَآءُ ; (K;) or the last of these in this sense has not been heard, though mentioned in the sense here following. (Mgh.) ― -b2- Also A she-camel having her ثَفْر [here meaning the vulva, or the orifice of the vagina,] cut [or rather slit or rent]; and so ↓ شَرْمَآءُ , and ↓ مَشْرُومَةٌ : (M, TA:) or ↓ شَرْمَآءُ applied to a she-camel and to a she-ass, accord. to the Tekmileh, means having the vulva slit, or rent: therefore the first-mentioned meaning of this epithet, applied to a woman, if correct, may be tropical. (Mgh.) ― -b3- Also The فَرْج [or vulva]; (K;) because of its being cleft. (TA.) شَارِمٌ ذ An arrow that slits, or rends, (يَشْرِمُ,) the side of the target.
