(TA, voce بُؤْبُؤٌ, where see an ex.) Jereer says, قَوْمِى تَمِيمٌ هُمُ القَوْمُ الذَّينَ هُمُ يَنْفُونَ تَغْلِبَ عَنْ بُحْبُوحَةِ الدَّارِ[My people are Temeem: they are the people who drive away Teghlib from the middle, or best part, of the country]. (S.) [It is said in the A, that this word, as syn. with وَسَطٌ, in relation to an abode or the like (دار), is tropical; but I see no reason for this, unless by وسط be meant the “best  part.”]أَبَحٌّ, applied to a man, (S, L, K,) or أَبَحٌّ الصَّوْتِ, (A,) Having a hoarse, rough, harsh, or gruff, voice: (L, K:) fem. بَحَّآءُ; with which ↓ بَحَّةٌ is syn.: (S, K:) pl. بُحٌّ.
