جُدِرَ, (A, Ḳ,) inf. n. جَدْرٌ; (TA;) and جَدَرَ, (Lḥ, Ḳ,) aor. ـُ {يَجْدُرُ}, inf. n. جَدْرٌ; (Lḥ, TA;) andجُدِّرَ↓, (Ṣ, A, Ḳ,) which last some disallow, because this form denotes repetition, and the verb signifies the having a disease that befalls but once in a man's life; (MF;) He (a man, Ṣ, or a child, A) had, or became attacked by, جُدَرِىّ [or small-pox]. (Ṣ, A, Ḳ.) [And جَدَرَ الجُدَرِىُّ The small-pox came forth, or broke out; as in the TḲ: for its inf. n.] جَدْرٌ signifies the coming forth, or breaking out, of the جُدَرِىّ. (Ḳ.)
