How the patterns shape this root
زَارَ is to visit — a hollow root, so the و shows as a long ū in the present يَزُورُ and disappears in the command زُرْ. The visit is زِيَارَة (فِعَالَة), the visitor زَائِر (فَاعِل, with the و as a hamza seat), plural زُوَّار. A مَزَار (مَفْعَل) is a place that is visited, and form VI تَزَاوَرَ is what good neighbours do: visit each other.
