Conjunction وَ (and)

وَلَئِن (And if) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".

We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

Emphatic لَ (indeed)

وَلَئِن (And if) starts with لَ for emphasis — it's like saying "indeed!" or "certainly!".

We add "indeed" or "certainly" to show the emphasis.

Conditional (if/when)

وَلَئِن (And if) introduces a condition — "if this happens, then that happens".
