Best Answer

The command "man ls" will tell you about the 'ls' command. The last part will be ignored because it isn't part of the manual entry for the 'ls' command.

The command as you can given it is most likely because you want to know what will happen when you issue the 'ls abcdat' command in Linux. The answer is that it will list out the name (in a short form) of the file or directory abcdat if it exists in your current working directory.
