Remember - if you don't use correct capitalisation, punctuation and spacing, anything you write will be incorrect.

Ben: No.

When we use what, when, how etc as a question, do we not ask it with verb before noun format? Eg .Did he come? When did we come? How did he come? Which route did he use to come?

When the interrogative word or phrase is the subject of the verb, we use normal affirmative word order.

I'm now wondering whether you have a trichologist, Rover, and what his or her name might be? Originally Posted by Rover_KE
