How the patterns shape this root
وَقْت is time as a point or stretch: كَمِ الْوَقْتُ؟ what time is it?, وَقْتُ الصَّلَاةِ, prayer time, plural أَوْقَات. Form II وَقَّتَ is to fix a time, so مُؤَقَّت (مُفَعَّل) is temporary — fixed for a time — and تَوْقِيت is timing, or a time zone: بِتَوْقِيتِ مَكَّةَ. مِيقَات (مِفْعَال, the و turned into ي) is an appointed time, and for pilgrims the place where the sacred state of Hajj begins.
