Show Hint

To frame a 'Wh' question, first identify what the underlined part refers to (a person, place, thing, action, reason, time, etc.). This will tell you which 'Wh' word to use. Then, adjust the sentence structure to form a question, usually by inverting the subject and the auxiliary verb.

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Understanding the Question:
The task is to frame a 'Wh' question (a question starting with Who, What, Where, When, Why, How) for which the underlined phrase, "to play the sitar," is the answer.
Step 2: Analyzing the Answer:
The underlined part, "to play the sitar," describes the activity or the action that 'he' was learning. This corresponds to the question word 'What'.
Step 3: Framing the Question:
The statement is in the Past Continuous tense ("was learning"). The question should maintain this tense.
- Statement: He was learning to play the sitar.
- Replace the answer ("to play the sitar") with "What".
- Invert the subject ('he') and the auxiliary verb ('was').
- The resulting question is: What was he learning?
