Who and What Questions
|
|
When Who or What is the subject of the verb in the question, the verb is always singular. When Who or What is the object of the verb, the question formation is the same as with all other wh - questions. In formal English, we use Whom for the object questions.
Examples
Subject Questions

A lot of the big oil companies do.
What powers most modern submarines?

NOTE: When you follow What with a plural noun, the verb is plural:
What companies operate nuclear power plants?
Utility companies do.
Object Questions

They sell it to countries all over the world.

It sells it to the United States.
