Do you use this expression?

Hello

If someone say "I feel sick this morning", you may ask " What happened? " , " What's the matter?" or " What's wrong?"
I'd like to know whether you use " What have you been doing?" in this situation.

Thank you.

Yes, you can say " What have you been doing <that has made you become sick>?"

if you were to translate that meaning directly from turkish into english, that would be what you will hear. But i dont think present perfect progressive tense is proper for that sense. i would suggest "what happened".

Please, you must continue to speak. Practice makes perfect. Mistakes are useful.
