INTERROGATIVE ADJECTIVES

The interrogative adjectives are used with nouns to ask questions. Examples are what, which, and whose.

Examples: What movie do you want to see? Which leaves tern colour first? Whose son is he? An interrogative adjective may look like an interrogative pronoun but it is used differently.

It is an adjective, used to modify a noun.
