Today, we will be looking at a few more questions you can ask.
How much is this banana?

මේ කෙසෙල් කියද?
Which candy do you like?
Mona kændi valata kæmathida?
මොන කැන්ඩි වලට කැමතියිද?
What time is it?

Velava kiyada?
වේලාව කීයද?
වේලාව කීයද?
When are we going?
Api kiyatada yanne?
අපිකීයටද යන්නෙ?
In Lesson 5, we learned the word kavaada, which also translates to when. Although,
kiyata(da) is also translated as when, we use it in a different context. Kiyata refers
to the time on a clock, while kavadaa refers to things relating to a calendar
(Days, Months, Years, etc.)
How old are you?
Literally: How much is your age?
Oyaage vayasa kiyada?
ඔයාගේ වයස කීයද?
Whose book is this?
Me poth kageda?
මේ පොත කාගේද?
