termiii interrogativi/question words


Explanation:
Grammaticalmente sono avverbi interrogativi, ma se intendi le famose "question words" con cui si tormentano gli studenti quando devono imparare a scrivere un paper, o le parole chiave per scrivere un articolo giornalistico, in Italiano si trovano tradotti come termini interrogativi, o semplicemente "question words", tipiche delle culture anglosassoni e un po' meno di quelle mediterranee
