WH-Question Quiz: Test Your Understanding of English Question Words

One of the most fundamental skills in English grammar is knowing how to form questions correctly — and that means knowing which question word to use. The WH-Question Quiz on GR Quiz is designed to test exactly that skill, covering the full range of question words that English speakers use every day.

What the Quiz Covers

The quiz presents 50 fill-in-the-blank sentences, each requiring the learner to choose the correct question word from four options. The questions span the classic WH-words — What, Who, Whose, Which, Where, When, Why, and Whom — as well as the How family of expressions, including How many, How much, How far, How long, How often, How old, How fast, How tall, How deep, How wide, and How heavy.

This breadth is intentional. Many learners know the basics of What and Where, but stumble when the question involves possession (Whose bag is this?), formal object forms (Whom did you meet?), or the fine distinction between How many and How much depending on whether a noun is countable or uncountable.

What Makes It Useful

Every question in the quiz comes with a clear explanation of why the correct answer is right. These explanations don’t simply repeat the answer — they state the underlying rule. For instance, learners discover that Which is appropriate when choices are limited and defined, while What is used when possibilities are open-ended. They also learn that How + adjective combinations (How deep, How wide, How heavy) are the natural way to ask about physical dimensions.

This explanation-based approach makes the quiz a learning tool, not just a test. A learner who gets a question wrong walks away with a clearer understanding of the grammar rule involved, not just a score.

Who It’s For

The quiz is well suited for intermediate English learners who already have a basic grasp of question structures but need to sharpen their accuracy. It is also a solid review tool for more advanced learners who want to confirm their instincts around less common forms like Whom and Whose.
