Hello teachers,
Regarding to the following sentence, when you ask the underlined part, what interogative word do you use?
(1) a. The activity of dancing is beautiful.
b. The result of the activity of dancing is beautiful.

Is that interogative appropriate?
(2) a. How is the activity of dancing?
b. How is the result of the activity of dancing?
c. What is a certain type of dance?
Sincerely,
ShoHiro |
