What does 'kakkai' mean?

[Shafiullah-Ahmadzai]

Was reading one of Hamza's poems.

Zulfay ka khwaray che da tobay pa zrha tyaara kaa,
Shokhi de kakkai krha, che me dwarha kakkai zrha kaa

It actually means the iris/or an old lady.

[Manzareh]

i thought kakkai reffered to a small girl a toddler or baby

[Khyber Pass]

i thought kakkai reffered to a small girl a toddler or baby

Yeah I think it means a small girl.

[emkhan]

I was thinking the same... In our language it is called a small girl.

[Gulalai]

yes, kakai means a child.. :S

shafiullah what are you talking about? :P

[Manzareh]

What about "kakaa" iv heard people use that for old men and for small boys

[kakargirl]

kakaa is used in helmand for fathers brother or even father, so many call their father kakaa

[emkhan]

Kakaa in my swat is used for an elderly person but the most used word for elderly persons is "mama".

[IamDZJ]

mama's wife is mumaani so kaka's wife is probably kaaki but when used in those sentences above, it still doesn't make any sense.

[afghan]

pupil in pashto is called kakai.
