What does যা mean?
যা (ja) is a Bangla pronoun that means which, what, that which in English.
A relative pronoun meaning 'which, what, that which', linking a clause to the thing being talked about: যা বলেছি (ja bolechhi) 'what I said'. It usually pairs with তা (ta) or সে (she) later in the sentence. Learners often mix it up with কি (ki), the question word 'what', and with যে (je) 'that', which introduces a different kind of clause.
