בָּדַד
(1) prop. to disjoin, to divide, to separate, as the Arab. بَدَّ. The notion of cutting or tearing apart, and hence of dividing, lies both in the monosyllabic stock בַּד, and in the harder kindred stocks בת, פד, פת, modified variously, comp. בָּדַל, בָּתַת ;בָּדַק, בָּתַל, בָּתַר, פָּדַד ;בָּתַק, פָּתַת ;פָּדָה, פָּתָה, פָּתַח, פָּתַע, פָּתַר. (Cognate to these is the syllable בז, בץ, פץ, as to which see בָּזַז, בָּצַע ).
(2) to separate oneself, to be solitary. Part. בּוֹדֵד solitary, alone, Psalms 102:8; Hosea 8:9; Isaiah 14:31.
Derivatives are בַּד No. I. and בָּדָד. [also pr.n. בְּדַד].
II. בָּדַד i.q. בָּטָא (which see), βαττολογεῖν, to babble, to talk triflingly, whence בַּד No. II.
