Questions with prepositions at the end

Reminder: when you ask a question with a question word (what, why, where, etc.), place it at the beginning of the question.

-Where are you now? -I'm in the UK.

-Why do you sleep so much? -Because I'm very tired.

Generally when the verb needs a preposition (with, about, on, etc.), place the preposition at the end of the question. 

-Where are you from? -I'm from Northern Ireland.

-What are you talking about? -I'm talking about the weather.

Note: In formal communication, some people sometimes put the preposition at the beginning of the sentence:

-From which employee did you hear it? -I heard it from Roger.
