لَزِجَ, aor. ـَ, (Ṣ, M, Ḳ,) inf. n. لَزَجٌ and لُزُوجَةٌ (M) and لُزُوجٌ; (Mṣb;) andتلزّج↓; (M;) It (a thing, Ṣ) stretched out, in a neut. sense: it roped; or drew out, with a viscous, glutinous, clammy, cohesive, sticky, ropy, or slimy, continuity of parts: syn. تَمَطَّطَ and تَمَدَّدَ: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) it was, or became, viscous, glutinous, clammy, cohesive, sticky, ropy, or slimy, so as to adhere to the hand and the like. (Mṣb.)

لَزِجَ بِهِ It adhered to him, or it, as glue or the like; syn. غَرِىَ. (Ṣ, Ḳ.) E. g. أَكَلْتُ شَيْئًا فَلَزِجَ بِأَصَابِعِى I ate a thing and it adhered to my fingers. (Mṣb.)

[And]تلزّج↓ It (food, or ointment,) became [viscous, glutinous, clammy, cohesive, sticky, slimy, ropy, or mucilaginous,] like خِطْمِىّ [or marsh-mallow]. (M, &c.)

تلزّج↓ النَّبَاتُ i. q. تَلَجَّنَ: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) i. e., The herbage became flaccid, and one part thereof inclined over another: (TA:) [or became flaccid, and of a viscous consistency, or viscous or mucilaginous in its juice; as appears from what here follows]. Ru-beh says, [in the Ṣ, El-ʼAjjáj,] describing a pair af asses, male and female,

* وَفَرَعَا مِنْ رَعْىِ مَا تَلَزَّجَا *

[And they finished pasturing upon what had become flaccid, and of a viscous consistency]. For, says J, [immediately after citing these words of the poet,] when herbage begins to dry up, its juice thickens, and becomes like the mucilage of the خِطْمِىّ [or marsh-mallow]. (TA.) Or the words of the poet, above quoted, signify, And they finished pasturing upon what they had searched after constantly, or time after time: for تَلَزُّجٌ also signifies the searching of a beast of carriage after herbage and leguminous plants, constantly, or time after time: and the two asses are here the agents of the verb تلزّجا. (L.)
