INTERROGATIVE PRONOUNS.

Point out the pronouns in the following sentences, that are used in

asking questions:—

1. Who did this?

2. What are you going to do next?

3. Which of the boys lost his knife?

A pronoun that is used in asking a question is called an =interrogative

pronoun=; as, _Who_ gave you the orange?

The interrogative pronouns are _who_, _which_, and _what_.

_Who_ and _which_ are declined like the relatives.

_Who_ refers to persons; _which_ refers to persons or to things; _what_

refers to things.

_Note._—_Which_ differs from _who_ in being selective; as, _Which_ of

the books is yours?
