Ask yes/no and information questions
Find a person, thing, location, time or quantity.
Yes/no questions
Apakah can introduce a yes/no question: Apakah Anda bekerja? The verb stays unchanged. In writing, a statement-shaped sentence with a question mark is also possible; these exercises specify apakah when required.
Question words
siapa = who; apa = what; di mana = where (location); kapan = when; berapa = how many/how much. Keep di mana as two words. Hari ini = today; di rumah = at home.
Useful patterns
Siapa nama Anda? = What is your name? Anda minum apa? = What do you drink? Di mana Anda tinggal? = Where do you live? Berapa harga buku itu? = How much is that book? Harga means price.
