I would like to ask about the usage of \"how\"
Thread Content
How can be used as an interjection? I’m not quite sure. I’d like to ask everyone: Is “How great a man he is” a correct sentence? But is “How great people they are” a correct sentence as well? If not, why?
It’s definitely correct – it’s just changing from the singular form above to the plural form. Exclamatory auxiliary verbs do not need to be placed at the beginning.
Add an adjective after HOW, and then say THEY ARE! Is it still an exclamation sentence when a name is added after hao? By the way, why is the original poster learning English? ?
The question raised by the original poster concerns the usage of how in exclamations. Generally, both what and how are used to express strong emotions in exclamations. How can be used in two ways: (1) how + adjective + declarative sentence structure; (2) how + adjective + article + noun (a specific indefinite or definite article must precede the noun) + declarative sentence structure. I hope now your question is clear!
