Lesson 05 – interrogative words (questions)

 

 


 

This video lesson is about questions + interrogative words in dutch. The function of interrogative words is to create a question. Examples are: who, where, what, when, how etc. Most interrogative words have a partner as answer. Such as: there, that, then, like this etc. This lessson deals with both. Dutch interrogative words are pretty much like in English.

Interrogative words are a very important component in every conversation. So learn it well !
