"I have a headache because I have a cold."

Translation: かぜをひいてあたまがいたいです。

[mioreynold]

More like I got a cold, then a headache

[Jessenstein]

one of the uses of te form is indication of "cause-effect". I got a cold so I got a headache is a more accurate translation.

Yrah i kept looking for the kara

[Japanelromanian]

I was looking for a から to say because

[KZSensei]

Should also accept かぜがありますから、あたまがいたいです。

[KeithWong9]

No, you cannot say かぜがある. It must be かぜをひく

[tomoirie]

If it goes along with the word card given, it should be something like かぜをひいたから、あたまがいたいです。

[PIEROS16]

i think ひいている should be correct, can someone confirm please?

[KeithWong9]

ひいている=ひいた because they both represent a continuous state. So OK.
