maṣdarتَضْمِيرٌ

Core sense — he made a horse lean; he trained a horse for racinggenerated

2.1

he made him (a horse) lean, or light of flesh.

اضمرهُ has the same meaning.

2.1.1

He prepared him, a horse, for racing [or for a military expedition ], by feeding him with food barely enough to sustain him, after he had become fat; اضمرهُ has the same meaning.

He fed him with food barely enough to sustain him, after he had become fat; اضمرهُ has the same meaning.

Or he fed him with fodder so that he became fat, and then reduced him to food barely enough to sustain him; this is done for forty days.

Or he saddled him and put a housing on him, so that he might sweat under it, lose his flabbiness and become firm in flesh; then he mounted on him a light boy or young man, to make him run, but not at the pace called عَنَق. By doing this, one need not fear that he will lose his breath in running, and a quick run does not cut him short. This is what I have seen the Arabs do; they call it تَضْمِيرٌ and also مِضْمَارٌ.

2.1.2

He, or it, weakened, subdued and diminished him.

The same meaning is assigned to it [figuratively] when the object is a word denoting a sensation or a passion.
