¡Hola amigos! ¿Cómo están hoy?I want to know if you are all…. ¿Listos para empezar? That means “Ready to start?”

Interrogative pronouns in Spanish

These are really important to know especially when you need assistance or when you want to engage in a conversation with someone you just met. You might know them as the wh-questions in English.One quick tip before we start:In Spanish, when writing, we use two question marks, one before the question and one after. Like this:          ¿Cómo te llamas?I´m sure you know the answer to this question by now:          Yo me llamo AndreaAs you can see from that last question we used  the word ¿cómo? , do you remember what that means in English?That's right!It means “what”, but it can also mean: HowTake a look at these two examples:¿Cómo te llamas? - what is your name?¿Cómo estás? - how are you?

It´s best to learn through examples that could come in handy when you are speaking Spanish.
