Unlike English which moves such interrogative words as "what", "when", "who" etc to the beginning of the sentence to form a question, MediaGlyphs - like Chinese - leaves the word order unchanged when forming questions. Hence "Who is this?" is written like "This is who?", since the answer has a structure "This is X."
==liliθ==
The possessive marker, close to the English genitive "'s", works in that order: "X's Y", and not "Y of X". In MG the structure "Lilith's mother" is the correct one, instead of writing "the mother of Lilith".
The question marker is used even with question words
