Topic-3
Questions

Questions are a great way to keep the conversation going, and to show your partner that you are listening.
The last couple weeks we have been practicing asking questions. Remember the basics: WH-questions.
Who, What, Where, Why, Which, When and How.
For example:
Who did you go with? 誰と行った？
What did you eat? 何を食べた？
Where did you go? どこに行った？
Why were you late? どうして遅れたの？
Which CD did you buy? どっちのCD買ったの？
When did you come to Okinawa? いつ沖縄に来たの？
How long have you worked for your company? どのぐらい会社に勤めてるの？
