French question words mostly come at the start of the question, but can also slot at the end in casual speech. is "where", qui is "who", quoi is "what" (after a verb or preposition), quand is "when", combien is "how much/many", comment is "how". Some look similar — quand, quoi, qui — so listen for the vowel sound, that's where the meaning is.
