1. introduce a question
2. "whether" (In the middle of a sentence)
Correlatives ending in -u
The correlatives ending in -u (kiu, tiu, etc.)
1. usually come before a noun.
2. take -j and -n endings just like adjectives.
For example:
Kiun libron vi legas?
Mi volas legi tiujn librojn.
They appear without a noun only if the context makes what is being talked about clear.
For example:
Jen kelkaj bonaj libroj. Kiun [libron] vi volas legi?
Here are some good books. Which [book] would you like to read?
Without other information, assume that kiu and tiu
(and any other correlative ending in -u) refer to a person.
For example:
Kiu venas? = Who is coming?
Nur por anoj.
Adamo trovis ies libron.
Kies panon oni man04as, ties lingvon oni parolas.
Whose bread one eats, that person's language one speaks.
Timiga vetero neniam timigas min!
Scary weather never scares me!
La priskribo estas facile komprenebla.
The description is easily understandable.
Ili ne nur suferis pro la milito, sed pereis
They not only suffered because of the war, but perished
Kiom a04a vi taksas min?
How old do you think I am?
