كَذا

🇬🇧 Translation:

A single word used as a pronoun substitute (kinayah) for something unknown, something one does not wish to state explicitly, and for the amount or number of a thing. Its specifier (tamyiz) is in the accusative case, it cannot take the definite article (al-), and it is used in singular, reduplicated, and coordinated forms.

🇬🇧 Translation:

A compound word made up of the simile particle kaf and the demonstrative noun (ذا), prefixed with the warning particle (ha'), or both the warning particle and the interrogative hamzah. Sometimes it omits the warning particle and is suffixed with the distant demonstrative lam and the second-person خطاب (address) kaf.
