To make subject questions you write 'who' or 'what' instead of the subject of the sentence.

WHO/WHAT + VERB(third person singular) + COMPLEMENT + ?

Example: Who wrote Hamlet? (answer: Shakespeare wrote Hamlet.
                Who is going home? (answer: My sister is going home.)

To make Object questions you write a Wh-word and followed by a yes/no question.
