INVERTED SUBJECT AND VERBS WITH
QUESTIONS WORDS

There is some confusion when to invert the subject and

verb after question words (Who, What, When, Where,
Why and How). When the question word introduce a
question, the subject and the verb are inverted.

• What is the right?

• When can I leave?

• Where are you going?

 INVERTED SUBJECT AND VERBS
WITH QUESTIONS WORDS

Also, these words can join together two clauses, and in this case the
subject and verb that follow are not inverted.

• I do not know who you are.

• What she is doing, it does not matter.

• Does he tell you how the problem is going?
