يقال للقاصر عن الشيء: دون، قال بعضهم:
الدال والواو والنون أصل واحد يدل على المداناة والمقاربة. يقال هذا دون ذاك، أي هو أقرب منه. وإذا أردت تحقيره قلت دوين. ولا يشتق منه فعل. ويقال في الإغراء: دونكه! أي خذه، اقرب منه وقربه منك. ويقولون أمر دون، وثوب دون، أي قريب القيمة. قال القتيبي: دان يدون دونا، إذا ضعف، وأدين إدانة. وأنشدوا:
