¿Qué? vs. ¿Cuál?328 33 7 Google +Multi3 for Sunflower Bag Shoulder Retro Hengpai Bag Women Tote Purse Girls Art 30 Art Bag Women Tote Retro Sunflower Shoulder Girls Multi3 Bag for Hengpai Purse 55 These two words can be confusing to students of Spanish whose native language is English because they are often translated as the same words into English. When the two words do not carry a written accent are used as linking words (relative pronouns) translated 'that' or 'which'. With an accent they are used as interrogative words in questions to mean 'what' and 'which'. Here, we are going to look at the differences between "¿Qué?" and "¿Cuál?" Most of you were taught at school that “¿qué?” is closer to 'what?' and “¿cuál?” is closer to 'which?'. This notion is of some use, but can often be misleading. "¿Qué?" and "¿Cuál?" can both mean 'what?' and "¿Cuál?" is also used to express 'which?'. The main difference is that "¿qué?" can be followed by a noun or a verb but "¿cuál? can only be followed by a veb or the preposition "de". Let's see some examples: 1. "¿Cuál?" and "¿Qué?" to suggest a choice within a group When the question implies a choice between two or more alternatives and conveys the idea of selection, ¿Cuál + verb/preposition? or ¿Qué + noun? can be used. ¿Cuál + verb/preposition? a. ¿Cuál de las tres casas es más cara? (Which of the three houses is more expensive?) b. ¿Cuál de las dos ciudades está en la costa? (Which of the two cities is on the coast?) c. Sunflower Women for Bag Shoulder Bag Retro Multi3 Purse Art Girls Hengpai Tote ¿Cuáles son las ciudades más grandes del mundo? (Which are the biggest cities in the world?)

(Which city is on the coast?) f. Credit 03 Push ACM Easy Organizer Card Hybrid Holder Front Use Button Camo Pocket Wallet UnwSBR ¿Qué ciudades son las más grandes del mundo?
