Interrogative pronouns

The basic interrogative adjective is:

• which: ho̱

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:

• ho̱ ʎı̄: which thing? = what?
• ho̱ qɛ̱ṙ: which person? = who?
• ho̱ o̱d: which amount? = how much, how many? (requires the partitive postposition)
• ho̱ nɛ cœ̀: in which time? = when?
• ho̱ qoṙ do: in which place? = where?

Within an interrogative clause, pronouns usually are usually placed in their syntactical position according to their role.
