Where or what!

Hi,

"Raka advised him to keep the ornaments in the locker".

Which is the correct form of interrogative sentence?

Where did Raka advice him to keep the ornaments?
Or
What did Raka advice him to keep the ornaments?

Hi Debasish,

I think you have to be clear what the questioner is asking. If we are talking about the place where he was advised to keep the ornaments, you would ask: Where did R advise him to keep the ornaments? If you are talking about what R advised him to hide, you would ask: What did R advise him to keep in the locker? The answer therefore to your question is the first one.

The verb is 'advise' and the noun is 'advice.'
