    This is an Arabic word. Proper Pashto words for 'reason' are:
    کبل
    توسن
    دک
    لاسوند

    Please give the translation for: "The reason is." (د علت دادی)
    علت يې دا دی
    دا له دې کبله
    توسن/دک/لاسوند يې دا دی

      Please use in a sentence.

      Please give the translation for: "The reason is." (د علت دادی) ?
      Illat means reason for being bad.
      Illat also means , Defect. They say , " Gran be-qeemata na vee, ao arzaan be-illata na vee." ( dear are worth their price and cheap are not without defect)

                                What are the differences between these two words:
                                څه = What
                                چه = ?? Which maybe?

                                Please explain like you are teaching a child so I may grasp these meanings. Sorry for all the questions. My words I asked are expert, aksar, and what is the difference between sa and tsa. Dera Manana.
