ولب1 وَلَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وُلُوبٌ, He entered (K) into a house or tent, or into a tract, or quarter, or the like. (TA.) b2:  وَلَبَ He hastened (K) in entering. (TA.) b3:  وَلَبَ إِلَيْكَ الشَّىْءُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وُلُوبٌ, The thing, of whatever kind it was, came to thee, or reached thee. (A'Obeyd, S.) In the copies of the K, وَلَبَ الشَّىْءَ وإِلَيْكَ; accord. to which, the verb, in the sense of وَصَلَ, there assigned to it, is trans. both immediately and by means of إِلَى: but the correct reading is ولب اليكالشىء, as above. In an old, and generally correct, copy of the Tahdheeb el-Af'ál of IKtt, it is said that ولب اليك الشَّرُّ signifies The evil reached thee: syn. تَوَصَّلَ. (TA.) b4:  وَلَبَ, inf. n. وُلُوبٌ and وَلْبٌ, It (corn or the like) germinated in offsets around the older plants. (IKtt.) b5:  وَلَبَ بنو فُلَانٍ The sons of such a one multiplied, or increased. (IKtt.) وَالِبٌ, Going into a thing; entering into it. (Esh-Sheybánee, S.) وَالِبَةٌ The offsets of the corn and the like: (K:) so called because they enter into the roots of the parent-plants: (TA:) or corn or the like growing from the roots of that which has preceded it: (S:) pl. أَوَالِبُ. (TA.) b2:  وَالِبَةٌ The offspring of camels, (IAar, S,) and of sheep or goats, (IAar, K,) and of cows, (K,) and of a people. (IAar.) تَوْلَبُ: see art. تلب. Accord. to Suh, the ت is substituted for و, and the word is derived from والية, the “ offsets of corn and the like: ” and Ibn-'Osfoor and IKtt assert the same. (TA.)
