Hi, I'm Ellen Quish from the Adult Learning Center at LaGuardia Community College in New York City for About.com.English Question Words
To get information in English, we can use words such as how, why, where, when, who, which, and what. These words are called WH words. Listen for the 'WH' words in the dialogue.Sample ESL Question Conversation
