Why and Wherefore / למה ומדוע

[madu'a מדוע, la-mah למה]
"In Hebrew, there are two expressions for 'why' - madua and lamah. Madua means Mah dei'ah - What do I learn from this? And Lamah means 'L'Mah? - To what end?' How do I grow and become better from this?"

from Nothing is as simple as it looks, by Rebbetzin Esther Jungreis (Sep 23 2009)
