                          2. precedes an intransitive verb.
                  e.g. How do you answer the first question?
                       How should you write it?
                       How does number 5 go?
                       How did you get on?
                  “What” 1. requires a transitive verb where “what” is the object;
                           2. precedes “to be” as a complement.
                  e.g. What did you write?
                       What should you say?
                       What is your answer?
                       What was number 6?

    Note:      You can sometimes hear:
             • Let’s discuss about this.
               “Discuss” is not followed by a preposition. It is also rather inappropriate
               in the classroom.
