PA Dutch 101 Video 9: Questions and Question Words. Frooge un Froogewadde.

Frooge - Questions To ask or form questions in PD, two methods can be used: 1. Inverted Word Order. 2. Use of a Question Word.

Inverted Word Order In a normal sentence in PD, we use the following equation: Subject – Verb – Other Stuff. Ich kaaf en Buch. To turn that sentence into a question, without adding anything new, we use inverted word order: Verb – Subject – Other Stuff? Kaaf ich en Buch?

Froogewadde – Question Words Questions can also be formed by adding a Question Word to the beginning of a question. When doing this, the word order of the question becomes: Question Word – Verb – Subject – Other Stuff.

Froogewadde – Question Words Wie – how / what – Wie schpot iss es? / Wie bischt du? Wu – where – Wu wuhnscht du? Was – what – Was iss sell? Wer – who – Wer iss sell? Wie viel – how much – Wie viel iss drei un fimf?
