Keep it simple

Don't overthink the grammar. Just use Tko for people and Što for things.

💡

Check the Noun

Always look at the noun first. If it's feminine, your question word must end in -a.

Review Summary

  • Tko/Što + verb

常见错误

Confusing interrogative 'Koji' with demonstrative 'Ovaj'. Use 'Koji' only for questions.

Wrong: Koji je ovo stol?
正确: Ovaj stol je moj.

Using 'Tko' (who) for an object instead of 'Što' (what).

Wrong: Tko je to jabuka?
正确: Što je to jabuka?

Demonstratives must match noun gender. 'Knjiga' is feminine, so use 'Ova'.

No, always use 'Tko' for people, regardless of number.

They change to agree with the gender and number of the noun they modify.
Usually no. If you don't have a noun, use 'tko' or 'što'.
It changes because it is in the Accusative case, which marks the direct object.
It is not 'wrong' in dialects, but 'Što' is the standard form for formal writing.
