(M) or she, as it were, called upon the dead man, enumerating his good qualities and actions, as though he heard her. (Mṣb.) It is said that the action is peculiarly that of women; and that the verb is derived from نَدَبَهُ, “he called him” to do a thing; or from نَدَبٌ, “a scar,” because the wailer mentions the memorials of him who has gone; or perhaps from نَدْبٌ, “lightness, or activity.” (MF.)
