Root, lemma and form: a root is the set of core letters shared by a family of words; a lemma is the dictionary entry; a form is how the word actually appears in a verse, with prefixes, endings or vowels. Related forms share a theme but do not always share the same meaning.
In the Qur'an
Here الدِّينِ means (of) Recompense.
