Meaning: you fear · Also translated as: fears, fear, [I] fear, both fear
الخوف: توقع مكروه عن أمارة مظنونة، أو معلومة، كما أن الرجاء والطمع توقع محبوب عن أمارة مظنونة، أو معلومة، ويضاد الخوف الأمن، ويستعمل ذلك في الأمور الدنيوية والأخروية.
الخاء والواو والفاء أصل واحد يدل على الذعر والفزع. يقال خفت الشيء خوفا وخيفة. والياء مبدلة من واو لمكان الكسرة. ويقال خاوفني فلان فخفته، أي كنت أشد خوفا منه. فأما قولهم تخوفت الشيء، أي تنقصته، فهو الصحيح الفصيح، إلا أنه من الإبدال، والأصل النون من التنقص، وقد ذكر في موضعه.
