The six most important words that you should know and ask are known as:
The 5W's + H
Who, What, When, Where, Why, How?
When posing a question or asking multiple questions, that's if you're aspiring to be a novelist, or a journalist, an interviewer, a reporter or just taking down notes and need to know the facts.
If you know how to manipulate these six basic questions, the answers to any question will be yours. Any answers you need can be dragged out using any of these questions.
Who? What? When? Where and Why? Plus that most often asked question How?
- Who is it about?
- What's happened?
- When did it take place?
- Where did it take place?
- Why did it happen?
- How did it happen?
Don't accept a yes or no answer to any of your questions, if you are not satisfied. Dig deep, use the six questions and know the 5W's and the H words. They'll come in handy, saving you in any of your writing endeavours.
