Playnciku Note
Questions about quantity with interrogative pronouns
View other nciku notes|
The word order of questions with interrogative pronouns("谁", "什么", "哪儿" and so on) is the same as that lf the declarative sentence. Replacing the corresponding part(i. e. , the part being questioned) of a declarative sentence with an interrogative pronoun will result in an interrogative sentence.
