Zashto? (защо?)

‘Why?’ You can shorten it to the more slang ‘shto? in the same way as kakvo? turns into k’vo? There’s a logical simplicity to the answer you give as there’s no separate word for ‘because’. Instead, you add a definite article to the end so it becomes zashtoto (защото) which I suppose is the equivalent of: ‘the why’. Definite articles are always added to the ends of words and they’re different depending on gender. There will also be three other endings for each gender’s plural and three more depending on whether the plural is a specific number or just mnogo.
