Question Mark Placement

Always place the question mark on the 'ե' in 'Ինչպե՞ս'. It's a signature of Armenian orthography.

💡

Focus on the Vowel

Always find the stressed vowel first. If you are unsure, it is usually the last vowel of the word.

Listen for the pitch

Even if you don't see the ՞, listen for the rising pitch at the end of the sentence.

In very casual speech, yes, but it is not recommended for learners.
In Armenian, the question mark is placed on the vowel that carries the interrogative intonation. For Ինչպե՞ս, it is the 'ե'.
