E-Lecture - Interrogative adjectives

Adjectives that modify a noun by asking a question are called interrogative adjectives.

An interrogative adjective, also known as interrogative determiner, is an adjective that modifies a noun by asking a question. The interrogative adjectives in English are ‘what’, ‘which’, and ‘whose’.

For example:

  • Whose book was that?
  • Which pen do you like more?
  • What books are you buying today?
  • Which book on proofreading do you recommend?
  • Which team scored the higher in the last match?
  • Which player did get a fifty yesterday?
  • Whose bag is this?
  • Did you find out whose keys those were?
  • Do you have any idea which teacher would be accompanying us for the trip?
  • What kind of books would you suggest for Learners of Grade 8?
