(29) Multiple questions
c) What is the order of manner and object interrogative?
If (29.a.) has a positive answer!
Alternatives to be checked: object > manner / manner > object / other
Prompt: I have heard that Anna has several techniques of fixing different kinds of things. Tell me:
What does Anna fix how? (Object > Manner)
How does Anna fix what? (Manner > Object)
Explanation: Make sure, e.g., by using a context of the sort given above, that neither of the question words has an echo-question interpretation. Other constructional types include, e.g., coordination (what did she fix, and how?).
Please use only interrogative pronouns, not complex expressions (such as which person).
If interrogative phrases go to the right in the language, please check in what order the two phrases can be arranged.
