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.
