WHO WHAT WHEN WHERE HOW WHY
Lesson 5: You may occasionally hear a sentence start with an
element other than “Who”. This happens when you want to
emphasize that element, and your voice should emphasize it as
well. In written form you must separate that element from the
sentence with a comma.
Make sure there is a good reason for emphasizing the element
that you are putting at the beginning of the sentence, or you will
sound unnatural.
