Question words
I have problem with question words in french.... I want to take a list, in that case maybe I could organize them in my mind better?
are these words correct???
is there anymore question word like this??
.
Qu'est-ce que =what
Combien = how many
Qui = who
Est-ce qu =do
Ou = where
De quel =what
For"est-ce que" it is more complicated, there is not only one way to translate it. Depends on the sentence.
Est-ce-que: used in French as one way of forming questions (literally: "is it that").
Par exemple :
Est-ce que tu as faim : Are you hungry ?
Est-ce que tu veux manger : Do you want do eat ?

Where = où (ou is or)
Could also use quel/quelle for what (ex: quelle est la date)

Quel/quelle (masculine/feminine) can mean "which"
For example:
Which car should I buy?
Quelle voiture devrais-je acheter ?
Quand = when
Quand est le film ?
When is the movie?
Pourquoi = why
Pourquoi tu fais un pizza ?
Why are you making a pizza?
"Qu'est-ce que" literally means "what is it that" (it's just a really long way to say "what"). You can also use "que"
For example: Que fais-tu ce soir ?
What are you doing tonight?
BUT the short "que" needs "inversion", which is when the verb and the subject are switched. "Qu'est-ce que" does not need this.
For example:
Que fais-tu ce soir ?
Qu'est-ce que tu fais ce soir ?
What are you doing tonight?
These all mean the same thing.
