कइसे / कइसन

How and What Kind

Level 1Sounds Like ka'isē ā ka'isana

कइसे asks how something is done, and कइसन asks what something is like.

How It Works

Both words translate how but they ask different things.

Word	Asks about	Example
कइसे	the way an action is done	तू स्टेशन कइसे जालऽ?
कइसन	what something is like	खाना कइसन बा?

The greeting uses कइसन: रउआ कइसन बानी? (How are you?) and तू कइसन बाड़ू? (said to a woman).

कइसन sits before a noun too: ऊ कइसन आदमी ह? (What kind of man is he?)

If you want the amount, use केतना (how much), not कइसन.
