Anonymous  +  184638 Tue, 17 Jan 06 12:39 PM Which one is right or how can I fix it? The sentences are: 1) Which city does she live in? 2) In which city does she live? 3) At which city does she live?  4) What city does she live? Anonymous

	pieanne  +  186272 Fri, 20 Jan 06 01:09 PM You say "Which city does she live in?" when you have a limited choice of cities. "What...in?" is when you don't know, and are faced with all the cities in the world... pieanne Joined on Thu, Jan 20 2005 South of France ...But I'm Belgian!

	Ruslana  +  186307 Fri, 20 Jan 06 03:02 PM On the other hand, Pieanne, the number of all the cities in the world is limited. So, it is no matter (if I am faced with all them) whether I use "which" or "what". Just a supposition. Ruslana

	pieanne  +  186314 Fri, 20 Jan 06 03:27 PM    Let's say you use "Which city ... ?" when you have a rather limited range of cities in mind. Imagine you're booking a trip to New York, and there are 4 cities (airports) in your area you can depart from. The agent will ask you "Which city will you be departing from?". On the other hand, if you're in a travel agency, and say "I'd like to visit a city", the agent will ask you "What city?", not "Which"... pieanne

	Ruslana  +  186359 Fri, 20 Jan 06 04:36 PM Yes, Pieanne, I agree. I just expressed a supposition (logical supposition?). Never mind. Ruslana
