English A1 Q&A Corrections #063
Topic: Short question fixes with who, what, where, when, and why.
Lesson overview:
In this lesson, we practice very short beginner questions and simple corrections. These question words help you ask about people, things, places, time, and reasons. This is a useful forum topic because learners can post a question, get a small correction, and then try a new sentence.

- who = asks about a person
- what = asks about a thing or information
