Etymology
The Modern Greek word 'ποιά' meaning 'which' is derived from the Ancient Greek word 'ποία' (poia), which is the feminine form of the interrogative pronoun 'ποῖος' (poios), meaning 'of what kind' or 'which'. This, in turn, comes from the Proto-Indo-European root '*kʷis', which is a root for interrogative pronouns.
