Wh Question Words

Question words are normally used to ask certain types of questions. We often refer to these words as wh words because they include the letters WH (Who, When, Where).

In Hindi, WH words which end in "aa" sound except question word "kya "has three variants.

For example → Kaunsaa कौनसा

Masculine     Feminine               Masculine Plural

Kaunsaa         Kaunsee                 Kaunse

Note →  In Hindi sentences, Question words are placed right after the subject of the sentence.
