Need help for a Title.

Hi teachers,

I have this titles in each page with of course explanations and example after them.

a) The Simple Present Questions for Actions

b) The Simple Present Questions for Time

c) The Simple Present Questions for Place and Direction

d) The Simple Present Questions for Possession

e) The Simple Present Questions for Uncountable Quantities

etc. etc.

But when I should give the title for 'the simple present questions for the method of travelling or paying' I don't find one that suits.

Because to say, 'The Simple Present Questions for Method' sound strange to me.

Could you suggest me a better one please?

Examples:

Ho do you go to the library? I go to the library by car.

How do you usually pay in the restaurant? I usually pay by credit card.

Thanks in advance

Thinking Spain 'The Simple Present Questions for Method' sound strange to me. Could you suggest me a better one please? The fancy word is "Instrumentality" or "Instrument".

Hi CalifJim,

Sorry I don't understand your reply, you mean I have to write, ' The Simple Present Questions for Manner'

Is that so?

I don't know how 'instrumentality' or ' instrumet' fit in here.

The Simple Present Questions for [Manner / Means / Instrumentality]

I meant that these words might be used as the last word, as shown above.

Hi CalifJim,

Now I got it. If you don't mind, I'll choose 'manner'. It is very similar to the Spanish word 'manera', so the students will pick it up immediately.

Thank you very much. You've been very helpful.
