### Asking "Which" with Hangi

Use the question word **hangi** (which) to ask for a specific preference. Just like in English, it goes directly before the noun.

{{item:789890}}

{{item:789893}}

You can discuss these choices using verbs like **denemek** (to try on) and pointing words like **bu** (this) and **şu** (that).

{{item:789895}}

### Asking "How" with Nasıl

Use the question word **nasıl** (how) to ask for an opinion about an item, like its fabric (**kumaş**) or quality.

{{item:789899}}

{{item:789901}}

### Adding Suffixes

When asking about something related to a specific choice, like a discount *on* a shoe, the locative suffix (**-da**/**-de**) attaches to the noun, not the question word.

{{item:789905}}

### Nasıl with Actions

You also use **nasıl** to ask how an action is performed. A common example while shopping is choosing how you will pay: with cash (**nakit**) or a card (**kart**).
