يغْضُضْ - يغض


Explanation:
غَضَّ صَوْتَهُ : خَفَضَهُ
اغضض : اخفضْ و انقصْ
من معجم كلمات القرآن الكريم
من سورة لقمان
وَاقْصِدْ فِي مَشْيِكَ وَاغْضُضْ مِن صَوْتِكَ ۚ إِنَّ أَنكَرَ الْأَصْوَاتِ لَصَوْتُ الْحَمِيرِ (19)

من تفسير الطبري : قال ابن زيد في قوله: (وَاغْضُضْ مِن صَوْتِكَ) قال: اخفض من صوتك.
