Who-questions are marked by pronoun without –kah (apa, mengapa, bagaimana, siapa, dari mana, and betapa) and pronoun with –kah (apakah, bagaimanakah, siapakah, mengapakah, bilakah, kapankah, manakah, di manakah, and berapakah). Meanwhile, yes-no questions are marked by question words and –kah. The functions of –kah are predicate and adverb. –kah as predicate is founded noun, verb, welsh form, adjectiv, while –kah as adverb is founded in modifiers. The researcher suggests to the teachers to give more attention to the question words either in source language or target language since they have different meaning. The teachers hoped to give explanation about their differences. This research is very strict, so that, further research to complete this study is advised.
