Language : There are three different words for 'Why' in . Wieso, weshalb and warum.

I'm not aware of anything similar in neither , nor .

@cweickhmann Mmm.. Dutch has at least the 'waarom' and 'hoezo'. Might have some more but can't recall off top of my head. 🙃

@trinsec
Hoezo, that'd be 'wozu' in German. 🤯

*) Though I would exclude that because it means 'to which purpose'.

@cweickhmann Nah.. hoezo should be wieso for you? Our hoes are your wies. Man, that sounded bad in English. 😅

@cweickhmann Actually, I think your wozu is our waarvoor.
