Interrogative pronouns
The basic interrogative adjective is:
- which: xọh
It can play the role of a basic interrogative pronoun, if used alone. Other interrogative forms, however, can be built by using the interrogative adjective with other generic or specific nouns or also with postpositions:
- xọh ɬjı̇k: which thing? = what?
- xọh qɛ̣h: which person? = who?
- xọh ŋɛ (rɔ/cew): which time? = when?
- xọh ŋɛ: which amount? = how much, how many? (requires the partitive postposition)
Within an interrogative clause, pronouns usually are usually placed in their syntactical position according to their role.
