In English, some of the questions words have two meanings. Like, for example, “how” can mean “how is it so?” and “how many/much/often” same with why and what in some cases. So, my question is, in Japanese would you also use question words like this? Or would you use how only as a “how is it so?” and instead of how often say something else? Like say “does he shop very often?” instead of saying “how often does he shop?” the way you would in English.
