Lesson 8 - Who What When Where Why (and how) - a podcast by Jae Bates

transcript： https://docs.google.com/document/d/1023lfqppxiQKu3xEejNafCi65LmzeVmvLtm9V_mgPQM/edit?usp=sharing

Episode Description:

This episode goes over the main question words and how they fit into the sentence structure that we learned in episode 7. Please see the transcript for more sentences, to see characters, vocab list and to follow along.

NOTE: zai4 na3er 在哪儿, which means “where” and is in the episode, uses zai4 在 but the phrase na3er 哪儿 can be used as a question word on its own as an object in the sentence. I forgot to mention this in-episode. For example you can say “Ni3 qu4 na3er?” 你去哪儿？ which means “Where are you going?”

Words used in this episode:

饺子 jiao3zi - dumpling

谁 shei2 - who

什么 shen2me - what

什么时候 shen2me shi2hou4 - when

(在) 哪儿 (zai4) na3er - where

为什么 wei4shen2me - why

and

怎么 zen3me - how (often times this will be translated to "what" but it has a specific use aside from 什么）
