2.2 Wh Questions
Wh -question is question For request information . Information
requested _ can form time , place , person, thing , thing , reason , or method .
Like form question others , also ended by a question mark ( mark ask ).

8
 Wh - questions begin with: what, where, when, why, which, who, whom,
whose, or how. Wh - the word is a pronoun. Where, when, why, and how to
replaces adverb (adverb ) ; what and who for replace subject or object; whose
for replace possessive; and whom, what, who, and which for replace object.
For example , with the indefinite pronoun: subject = someone or
something For signifies that subject _ No is known . Look The following is an
example of a declarative sentence .
Wh - Question For Ask Subject :

No Example of a Declarative Sentence

1 Someone called my boss 5 minutes ago.
2 Something inspired him to visit Rhome.
3 Someone's story changed her life.
4 This book was written by Enid Blyton.

For form wh - question in the sentence first and second , enough with
change the indefinite pronoun with who and what while in sentences third , the
indefinite pronoun and its apostrophe replaced with whose. As for the sentence
fourth , the details of the subject (this book) are replaced by which. Following
example sentence wh - questions based on four declarative sentences above .

No. Example Sentence Wh - Question

1 Who called my boss 5 minutes ago?
2 What inspired her to visit Rhome?
3 Whose story changed her life?
4 Which book was written by Enid Blyton?

So the formula wh -question For ask subject:

Who/What + Predicate?
Or
Whose/Which + noun + predicate ? ( simple tense)

9
 Whose/which + noun + be + subject + present participle (progressive
tense)

Wh - Question For Ask Objects :

For example , let's say object = somebody, someone or something signifies
that object _ No is known as well as example in the form of “ Aaa ” for signifies
that the details of the object ( object in the form of a noun phrase) no is known
. Look The following is an example of a declarative sentence .

No. Example of a Declarative Sentence

1 We can do something during the storm.
2 My neighbor may need someone to repair his car.

For form wh - question in the sentence first and second , enough with
change the indefinite pronoun with who and what, moving it to front sentence ,
and moved the auxiliary verbs (can and may) to position after the pronoun .
Sentence third , no has an auxiliary verb, rather only has a main verb
(love). Because it does not have an auxiliary, then For form wh - question in the
sentence third auxiliary dummy ( do,does ,did ) is required which will placed
after who.
As for the sentence fourth , details of the subject (this book) in the form
of the noun phrase replaced by which.
So example wh - question based on the declarative sentence above is as

1 What can we do during the storm?
2 Who may my neighbor need to repair his car?
3 Who does Retno love in my class?
4 Which book did Enid Blyton write several decades ago?

10
So the formula wh -question For ask object :
Who/What + auxiliary/dummy ( do,does ,did ) + S + bare infinitive?
Or
Which + noun + auxiliary/dummy( do, does , did ) + S + bare infinitive ?

Note :
Bare infinitive applies for simple present, past and future. For perfect and
continuous use the past participle (V3) and present participle (V1-ing)
respectively.

and someday for signifies that the adverb No is known . Look The following is
an example of a declarative sentence .
No. Example of a Declarative Sentence
1 We should carry out the plan someday .
2 Aldo is watching a football match somewhere .
3 Sella put away her money and jewelry somewhere .
4 He is somewhere.
5 The new worker works extremely slowly.
6 Fitrian drove fast so that he could arrive on time .
For form wh - question in the sentence first and second , enough with
change the indefinite pronoun with when and where, moving it to front sentence
, and moved the auxiliary verbs (should and is) to position after the pronoun .
Sentence third , no has an auxiliary verb, rather only has a main verb (put
away). Because it does not have an auxiliary, then For form wh - question in
the sentence third an auxiliary (did) dummy is needed that will placed after who.
Sentence fourth using the linking verb "be" (is). Wh - question can formed
with put where in front sentences and exchange subject and verb position .
As for the sentence fifth , no Example of the word being asked with the
indefinite pronoun or whatever Because will become Strange . “Extremely
slowly” is an adverb phrase. "Extremely" is an intensifier/adverb of degree
explaining the adverb "slowly". Assume the intensifier does not is known .

11
 Likewise for _ sentence sixth , assume "so that he could arrive on time"
(adverbial clause) no is known .
So example wh - question based on the declarative sentence above is as
following .

2 Where is Aldo watching a football match?
3 Where did Sella put away her money and jewelry?
