The answer
WHICH
What which means
A word used to ask about or identify one or more people or things from a group, or to introduce a clause that provides additional information about something previously mentioned.
Where the word comes from
"Which" comes from Old English "hwilc," meaning "what kind of" or "what." This developed from Proto-Germanic "*hwilika-," built from "*hwi-" (the root of "who") plus a suffix denoting quality or kind. The "wh-" spelling emerged in Middle English as scribes distinguished it from "w" words. Related to German "welch" and Dutch "welk," all tracing back to the same Germanic root for asking about identity or type.
