SUBJECT QUESTIONS!!!!! SUBJECT QUESTIONS are different (easy) Replace the Subject with the WH Word 90% of the time, use 3 rd singular (-s) in any subject question (because you don’t know the answer, and the answer is the subject) * They are from Peru.Who is from Peru? * You make me happy.Who makes me happy? * She has a new car.Who has a new car? We should eat rice.Who should eat rice? The car went through the window.What went through the window?
