Verb [Maltese]

IPA: /ˈla.ʔa/, /ˈla.ʔaˤ/
Etymology: From Arabic لَقِيَ (laqiya, “to meet”). The unetymological final għ was triggered by the influence of q on the following vowel; compare baqa’. The etymological past participle milqi is preserved in the placename San Pawl Milqi (literally “St. Paul welcomed”).
