1 طَنَّ ذ , (MA, Msb, K, TA,) aor. طَنِ3َ , (Msb, TA,) inf. n. طَنِينٌ [q. v. infrà], (MA, Msb,) It made a sound [of a continued or a reiterated kind, and either low or sharp]; (MA, Msb, K, TA;) as also ↓ طنّن , and ↓ طَنْطَنَ . (K.) You say, طَنَّ الذُّبَابُ [and ↓ طَنْطَنَ , as also دَنَّ and دَنْدَنَ,] The flies made a [humming, or buzzing,] sound. (MA, Msb.) And in like manner طَنَّ is said of other things than flies. (Msb.) [Thus,] طَنَّ الطَّسْتُ, (MA,) or طَنَّتِ الطَّسْتُ, (S,) The basin of brass or other metal made a [ringing, or tinkling,] sound. (S, MA.) And البَطَّةُ تَطِنُّ The duck, or goose, utters a sound or sounds [i. e. quacks]. (S.) ― -b2- [Hence,] one says also, طَنَّ ذِكْرُهُ فِى البِلَادِ (assumed tropical:) [His fame resounded through the countries]. (TA.) ― -b3- And طَنَّت الإِِبِلُ (assumed tropical:) The camels thirsted [app. because thirst is often attended with a ringing, or tingling, in the ears]. (TA.) ― -b4- And طَنَّتْ سَاقُهُ (tropical:) His shank was quickly cut off: the verb being imitative of the sound of the shank in its falling. (TA.) ― -b5- And طَنَّ (assumed tropical:) He (a man, TA) died: (S, K:) so in the “ Musannaf ” [of Aboo-'Amr Esh-Sheybánee]. (S.) ― -b6- And (assumed tropical:) He licked his finger. (TA.)
