| Wota | |
|---|---|
| Stage | Modern CLT |
| Pronunciation | /ˈwo.ta/ |
| Part of speech | Interrogative |
| Etymology | from middle CLT Wōtē, from proto wat |
Wota — what; asking which thing, or what kind.
Notes
Distinct from waetaef, which is an exclamation of disbelief and not a question. Placed at the head of a sentence; the question particle cae still closes it in formal speech and is dropped in casual.
