daher

therefore

adverb da-HAYR Common

Also means

from there

Usage Note

daher mostly means 'therefore, that's why', drawing a conclusion much like deshalb. Literally 'from there', it also keeps that spatial sense in motion verbs and in the idiom daher kommt es, dass ... ('that's how it comes about that ...').

Examples

"Es regnet, daher bleiben wir zuhause."

Natural Translation

It's raining, so we're staying home.

Literal Translation

It rains, therefore stay we at-home.
