Note 221 — THE STORY OF THE KAZI WHO BARE A BABE.[204]
Richard Francis Burton translation · Edition 2
Arab. “Karkabah,” clerical error (?) for “Karkarah” = driving (as wind the clouds); rumbling of wind in bowels. Dr. Steingass holds that it is formed by addition of a second “k,” from the ✔ “Karb,” one of whose meanings is: “to inflate the stomach.”
