WH Question Words We use question words to ask certain types of questions. The most common questions in English are often referred to as ‘WH' questions.

We often refer to them as WH words because they include the letters WH WHo WH at , WH en WH ere WH y , H o W .

Purpose ' Wh ' questions ask for specific responses as to the time, place, reason, thing or person.

Who  -  asks questions about people What  -  asks questions about things or objects When  -  asks questions about time Where  -  asks a question about place Why  -  asks questions about reasons How – asks about manner or condition

Question Word Function Example what asking for information about something What is your name? asking for repetition or confirmation What? I can't hear you. You did what? what...for asking for a reason, asking why What did you do that for? when asking about time When did he leave? where asking in or at what place or position Where do they live? which asking about choice Which color do you want? who asking what or which person or people (subject) Who opened the door? whom asking what or which person or people (object) Whom did you see? whose asking about ownership Whose are these keys? Whose turn is it? why asking for reason, asking what...for Why do you say that? why don't making a suggestion Why don't I help you? how asking about manner How does this work? asking about condition or quality How was your exam?

Question Word Function Example how + adj /adv asking about extent or degree see examples below how far distance How far is Pattaya from Bangkok? how long length (time or space) How long will it take? how many quantity (countable) How many cars are there? how much quantity (uncountable) How much money do you have? how old age How old are you? how come (informal) asking for reason, asking why How come I can't see her?

Forming question words Most wh – questions begin with a… question word + an auxiliary verb + the subject. Ex: What is Kitty doing? Where are you from?

The grammar The "grammar" used with wh - questions depends on whether the topic being asked about is the " subject " or ” object " of a sentence.

Grammar subject questions For the  subject  pattern, simply replace the person or thing being asked about with the appropriate wh -word. ( Someone has my baseball.) Who has my baseball? ( Something is bothering you.) What is bothering you?

Grammar object questions For the  object  pattern, wh - question formation depends on whether there is an "auxiliary" verb in the original sentence. He lives in New York . Where does he live ? 

Responding to WH question The answer to ' wh ' questions often repeats the same subject as in the question form. When did they have dinner? They had dinner at six o'clock.

Wh Questions - Short Forms 'What', 'who' and 'where' are often combined with a preposition to ask short, follow-up questions. Examples: Are you busy next weekend? Yes, I'm working next weekend? What for? Because I need to finish the project. Jennifer is writing a new article? Who for? She's writing it for Jane Magazine. I have to go away on business next week. Where to? I'm flying to Seattle on Friday. With Who(who)

Digraphs When students see two letters many times they want to make two sounds When “ wh ” is encountered for the first time in the curriculum, students should be taught that it represents a single sound, / hw /, which is different from the /h/ and /w/ sounds that has already been taught for the letters “h” and “w.” Students need only be told that the sound of “ wh ” is the “blowing out a candle sound” when/where/what
