(Msb. [It is there added that this noun is like مُدْيَة in measure: otherwise I should think that the right reading is لِلْغُمِّيَّة, which has been mentioned voce غَمٌّ.])

(TA.) ― -b2- Also, the first, [in the CK, erroneously, غَماء,] A covering that is put upon a horse in order that he may sweat. (ISd, K.) ― -b3- See also غَمْىٌ. -A2- And see 4, near the end.
