Learning to write questions in Spanish
Write the Spanish equivalents for the following:
Who? With whom?
From whom? For whom?
To whom?
Where? To where?
From where? For where?
What? With what?
For what? In what?
From what?
Which one? Which ones?
Why? How?
How much? (2 forms) How many? (2 forms)
When? For when?
Word order, when writing a question in Spanish, usually follows this pattern:
¿ question word verb subject ?
¿Dónde estudia el muchacho?
If a question word is not used, the word order is usually:
¿ verb subject ?
¿Estudia el muchacho?
Remember: never end a question in Spanish with a preposition. The
preposition will usually be near the beginning of the question.
¿Con quién canta Marta?
¿De dónde es la señorita?
¿Para quién es el dinero?
¿En qué pones la basura?
Write questions for each underlined part of the statements.
