ته ودرېږه، چه څه شی لری؟

This is in a lesson I am learning now, and I am hung up on this sentence. I know they are saying: "Wait, what do they have," but what about the چه. If this means who, how does it make sense in this context? It is probably such a stupid question, sorry.

in this context CHE means THAT. Look at the sentence structure:

Te (you) wadarezha (wait), che (that) tse (what) shay (thing) laree (they have)

To make another example with the same structure:

Pashtun hagha (the one who) day (is), che (that) Pashto laree (has) = Pashtun is someone, who has Pashto. In this sentence CHE means WHO.
Other examples:

De (of) kor (house) khawand (owner) hagha (that) saray (man) day (is), che (who)...

Ma (me) warta (to him) wowayel (said), che (that)...

Pushtana (question) da (that) de (is), che (which)...

[akhan]

How do you say push, as in give me a push?

Is it correct to say 4:08 for time as atah bande salor baje dey or 5:07 as owah bande pinzah baje de.

Dera manana.

[Feroza_Banu]

taila = push

ټيله

if you want to say push me

"maa taila ka"

or

taila me ka

give me a push

"taila raka"

you can also use

"Poraii waha"

maa porai waha




Timing:

the right way of saying it is:

tsalor bajay aw atta daqai dei

pindza pajay aw owwa daqai dei.

[Feroza_Banu]

^i haven't heard Deekha at all...

[Yousafzai Pakhtun]

I noticed many people say deekha. Feroza is Deekha also used?

you are right......We use both "Tela" and deekha.....in Urdu they say "Dhakka"
