Why generate your own Spanish question-word cards

Question words are where most beginners stall in Spanish class, so Spanish interrogatives flashcards work best when each card pairs a question word with a sentence from your own course.

  • Pick up the exact question words your unit covers, not a generic list
  • Keep the example sentences from your teacher's slides on the back of each card
  • Practice distinctions like qué versus cuál and por qué versus para qué
  • Study in the browser on the free plan, then export to Anki or CSV on Plus
Example Spanish interrogatives flashcards
What is the difference between ¿qué? and ¿cuál?¿Qué? asks for a definition or comes before a noun, as in ¿Qué libro? Cuál? chooses from a set, as in ¿Cuál prefieres?
What does ¿cuándo? ask about?Time. It means when, as in ¿Cuándo llegas? (When are you arriving?)
What does ¿dónde? ask about?Location. It means where, as in ¿Dónde está la biblioteca? (Where is the library?)
How do you ask how many books in Spanish?¿Cuántos libros? Cuánto agrees with the noun in gender and number, so it becomes cuántas for feminine plurals like ¿Cuántas casas?
What is the difference between ¿por qué? and ¿para qué?¿Por qué? asks for the cause (why), while ¿para qué? asks for the purpose (what for).

Works from your own material

Upload a PDF of your textbook chapter, a PPTX of class slides, typed notes or a photo of the board.

Cards built from real sentences

Each card pairs a question word such as qué, cuál or dónde with an example from your course, so you practice how it is used.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, and ones you know are shown less often, so the forms stick before your next quiz.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or a photo of a page. Photos are read with text recognition.

Generate your flashcards

DeckOwl creates cards from the interrogatives in your material. Check them and remove any you do not need.

Study on a schedule

Review in the browser with spaced repetition, and add quizzes or a mind map when you want a different angle.

A generic list of qué, cuál, quién, dónde, cuándo, cómo, cuánto and por qué does not show which ones your teacher emphasizes or the examples used in your readings. Cards made from your own pages do.

Start with the question words your unit covers, then add one card per example sentence. Review the cards that feel shaky more often, and keep the rest on a longer spacing schedule.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for Spanish interrogatives?

Start with the question words your class covers, such as qué, cuál, dónde, cuándo, cómo, por qué, quién and cuánto, and add one card per example sentence. Most beginner units fit in a set of about 20 to 40 cards.

What is the difference between qué and cuál in Spanish questions?

Qué usually comes before a noun or asks for a definition, as in ¿Qué libro lees? Cuál chooses from a set of options, as in ¿Cuál prefieres? Practice both with sentences from your own notes.
