Morphology
see + ya
This is an informal phonetic spelling of 'see you' where 'ya' maps to 'you', so the meaning 'goodbye / see you later' is compositionally derived from 'see' + 'you'. Although the colloquial form 'ya' may be nonstandard, a B1 learner who knows the constituent words would readily infer the intended farewell meaning.
Etymology
See ya is a casual short form of see + ya, where ya is an informal way to say 'you'. It creates the simple image of promising to meet again, so people use it as a friendly way to say 'goodbye' or 'see you later'.
