How the patterns shape this root
لِقَاء is a meeting of people, so إِلَى اللِّقَاءِ, 'until the meeting', is goodbye. The verb لَقِيَ is to meet or come across; form VIII اِلْتَقَى بِـ is to meet with someone on purpose, and the place for that, مُلْتَقَى (مُفْتَعَل), is a forum. Form V تَلَقَّى is to receive what is thrown to you — a message or a call — and form IV أَلْقَى is to throw it, which is why giving a speech is إِلْقَاء. The root ends in a weak letter, so its words end in ـَى or ـَاء.
