Interrogative adjectives in Nepali grammar are words that add more information to a noun to turn it into a question. They represent the English words ‘Which’, ‘Whose’, and ‘What’. They are usually placed before the noun they modify. Understanding how to use these interrogative adjectives correctly in Nepali sentences is an important part of mastering the language.
