Qué vs Cuál in Spanish - How & When to Use Them

Usually, 'qué' in Spanish is the direct translation of 'what' and 'cuál' means 'which'. But did you know that there are certain situations where they could mean the inverse? So, in this video, I'll teach you the differences between qué and cuál and how to use them both properly in all contexts.

I also have an article on this topic if you'd like to read about it to get a succinct answer, see a comparison table of these two interrogative words, and phrase structures for using them.

Thank you! Cual and Que are used in the same situations as in Ukrainian! Now I understand it better, than when I tried to study it in English, because "what" and "which" in English are used in different situations)
