The words where, when, and how are adverbs.
When these adverbs introduce a question, they are modifying the verb; for example:
- Where can I find the egg beater? (modifies the verb 'can find')
- When does the movie start? (modifies the verb 'does start')
- How are you traveling to Florida? (modifies the verb 'are traveling')*
When a pronoun introduces, the pronoun is taking the place of the noun or pronoun that is the answer to the question; for example.
- Who are you traveling with? My sister is going with me.
When these adverbs introduce a clause, they are modifying the verb; for example:
- I know where they sell those shoes. (the entire adverbial clause modifies the verb 'know')
- We came when we heard the news. (the entire adverbial clause modifies the verb 'came')
- She learned how to sew from her grandmother. (the entire adverbial clause modifies the verb 'learned')
- It was her grandmother who taught her to sew. (the entire relative clause 'relates' to the noun 'grandmother')
