WH-QUESTIONS

All questions start by Wh are called WH-QUESTIONS. These questions need answers based on the essence of what the "WH" brings.Wh Questions include:
When : Kapan (asking time)
Where: Kemana/ dimana (Asking place)
What : Apa (Asking things)
WHy : Kenapa/ Mengapa (asking reason)
Who : Siapa (Asking people/ subject)
Whom : Siapa (Asking people/ object)
How : Bagaimana (asking a way)
How : Berapa (asking quantity)
Which: Yang mana (asking preference)

When we know the use of Yes/ No questions in sentences,we will be able to make WH Questions for they are the combination between WH and Yes/ No questions. For example:
Yes/ No : Are you tired? (Apakah kamu lelah?)
When we want to use WH Questions we just simply put any WH we want preceding the Yes/ No we have made.
For example: Mengapa kamu lelah?
Why are you tired?
Another example Yes/ No questions using "aux" to be changed into Wh-Questions:
1. Yes/ No : Do you go to Madiun?
WH : When do you go to Madiun?

2. Modal : Will you go to Madiun?
Wh : How will you go to Madiun?

After knowing the pattern above we can draw Wh-Questions formula as follows:
WH + tobe/ aux/ modal + subject +


But there is an exception. When we ask a person as a subject, we don't need to add anything after Wh. We will use the Verb directly. The tense of the Verb depends on the time the verb happens.
For example: Simple Present Tense: Who takes my book? (siapa yang mengambil bukuku?)
Simple Past Tense : Who took my book?
Simple Future Tense : Who will take my book?
Present Perfect Tense : Who has taken my book?

When asking a person functions as an object, we need to put auxiliary after WHO or WHOM.
For example: Who did you go with yesterday? (dengan siapa kamu pergi kemarin?)
Who did you buy a cell phone for? (Untuk siapa kamu beli HP?)
