I �VE JUST EDITED MY MESSAGE ONE MORE TIME!
Could you please come up with a proper question to the following answer.
ANSWER: OH! HE IS THE FOURTH PRESIDENT OF TIMBUKTU.
NOTE: (the stress should be on the 4th ,not he , please! Imagine that the word FOURTH is underlined)
THANKS A MILLION IN ADVANCE.!

Dear DTCF,
"Is he the Third, or the Fourth President of Timbuktu?"
(In Writing, written the same as this. In Speaking, spoken with emphasis on the underlined words.)
"Oh! He�s the Fourth President of Timbuktu!"
Dora�s question is very good.
"Which President of Timbuktu is he?"
But someone might answer, (for example):
"He�s the one/with the wife called Maria/with the blond hair/with 10 sons/etc.
Nevertheless, it�s a good answer.
I agree with Apodo!
I hope that this helps.

How about:
What number president of Timbuktu is he?
What number president of the USA is Barack Obama? He is the 44th President of the USA. |
