Question Words
Spanish question words always have an accent mark. Cómo means how (¿Cómo te llamas?). Cuántos means how many (¿Cuántos años tienes?). Dónde means where (¿Dónde vives?). These accent marks tell you it is a question word. In Spanish, questions also have an upside-down question mark at the beginning: ¿...? This tells you a question is starting!
