Introduction

You have learned to ask yes/no questions using est-ce que and inversion, but there will be times when you will need more information. When you visit a francophone country or when you talk to friends and classmates, you will need to ask - who, what, where, when or why. In this lesson, you will learn to ask questions that use these question words. You will also learn to conjugate a new group of regular verbs. You are familiar with ER and IR verbs. The new group is called RE verbs.
