1 Les Mots Interrogatifs
Qui? Que? Quand?

2 Les mots interrogatifs
We are already familiar with several words used for asking information questions: Comment t’appelles-tu? How do you call yourself? D’où viens-tu? Where do you come from? Quand va-t-il? When is he going?

3 Les adverbes interrogatifs…
Comment? Combien? Quand? Où? D’où? Pourquoi? These are adverbs because they modify a verb

4 Les pronoms intérrogatifs…
Qui? Que? Quoi? These are pronouns because they could be replaced with a noun.

5 Note that “que” becomes “quoi” after a verb:
About “quoi” Note that “que” becomes “quoi” after a verb: Que cherches-tu? Tu cherches quoi?

6 Les adjectifs intérrogatifs…
Quel (s) / le(s)? All forms are pronounced “kell” These are used with a noun to ask “what” or “which.”

7 Par example… ______ est le nom de ton prof?
What’s the name of your teacher? __________ sont tes livres? Which (ones) are your books?

10 J’ai une question… Charles est dans la librairie. s v
There are several ways to ask a question in French, besides using question-asking words. One way is to simply place the subject after the verb, and change the inflection of your voice: Charles est dans la librairie. s v Est-ce que Charles est dans la librairie ? v s

11 Autre question… Il y a une fête demain. Il y a une fête demain?
Sometimes the written question marks and the rising tone of the speaker’s voice alone may indicate the difference between a statement and a question: Il y a une fête demain. Il y a une fête demain?

12 Encore une question… Il y a une fête aujourd’hui, n’est-ce-pas?
Sometimes you can add a tag word such as non? or n’est-ce-pas? to the end of a sentence, much as you might add no?, right?, etc., in English: Il y a une fête aujourd’hui, n’est-ce-pas? There is a party at school today, right? Pierre est malade, non? Pedro is sick, no?

13 Questions et réponses…
When answering questions, pay attention to the verb form. The verb form in the answer will be based on the question. If the question is asked of you, the answer is in the I form. If the question asks about him, then the answer is also about him, etc. EVERY sentence (answer) must have a subject and a verb.
