|Description=Questions can constitute hierarchies where more specific questions are subquestions of broader questions. For example, 'Was Peter the Great an emperor of Russia?' is a subquestion of 'Who were the emperors of Russia?' since by answering the former, we are also providing a partial answer to the latter. The latter is, in turn, a subquestion of the broader question 'Who were the rulers of European countries?'. A partial answer to a question is a complete, or direct, answer to one of its subquestions .[[CiteRef::Beck and Sharvit (2002)]][[CiteRef::Sharvit and Beck (2001)]][[CiteRef::Eckardt (2007)]].
