"When" Questions
You use the question word "When" to ask about time or a date.
Examples:
-
When is your birthday?
-
When is the meeting?
You can also form an object question using "When".
To form an object question using "When", use this structure: "When" + helping verb + subject + verb (base form).
Examples:
-
When does she arrive at school?
Question word ("When") + helping verb ("does") + subject ("she") + verb ("arrive") + other words ?
-
When do they play football?
Question word ("When") + helping verb ("do") + subject ("they") + verb ("play") + object ("football") ?
"Where" Questions
You use the question word "Where" to ask about a place or direction
Examples:
-
Where is my book?
-
Where are your friends?
You can also form an object question using "Where": "Where" + helping verb ("do" or "does") + subject + verb (base form).
Examples:
-
Where does John live?
Question word ("Where") + helping verb ("does") + subject ("John") + verb ("live") ?
-
Where do we meet?
Question word ("Where") + helping verb ("do") + subject ("we") + verb ("meet") ?
