Grammar Review :
- Question word
"what would you like to start with?"
To ask for information, begin with a question word. The rest of the sentence has the same structure as a yes/no question. When asking for additional information about a noun, place the noun after the question word. The rest of the sentence is like a yes/no question.
| Question word | Asking for ... |
| Who | a person, subject of the verb |
| Whom | a person, object of the verb |
| Whose | a person, the owner of the subject of teh verb |
| Which | a person or thing, one of a few choices for the subject |
| What | a person or thing, to refine the subject of the verb |
| What kind of | an adjective, to describe the subject of the verb |
| Where | a place |
| When | a time |
| Why | a reason |
| How | a way or manner of doing something |
| How many | a number |

- The three Rs
The best strategies to handle unfamiliar vocabulary rest on the three Rs: review, repeat, remember.
Think about the words again and again. This will help to move them from your short-term memory to your long-term memory. It is similar to your relationships with people. Imagine meeting someone for the first time. If you see the person a short time later, you'll probably recognize him or her. If you wait weeks, or months, you may not. But if you get together regularly,
you may become friends. You learn all sorts of things about them. It's the same when you "meet" new words. You have to stay in regular contact to get to know them well. Look at them daily at first, then perhaps every week, then monthly.
