As a full disclaimer I am posting this on two other forums, the learn japanese reddit, and the koohii forum. I hope that isn't against the rules as I know some forums don't like that.

I have been studying Japanese for 1 year and I have learned many words a long the way. But for some reason, I still get my interrogatives mixed up and confused. I have just recently started doing conversation practice over skype with a Japanese native and this is hurting me a lot. By interrogatives I mean words like, 誰、どこ、どの、どれ、どちら、どれくらい 、どのくらい、いつ、 etc. Do you guys have any good tricks or not getting these words mixed up?

Hi SevenSyndicate,

I try to remember them by segregating them into different endings, like into d,k,s,a and
on the other hand ono,ore,are,ochira. etc. Keep on practising, it will automatically come
to you one fine day.
