Have I placed "itsu" correctly in the sentence?


> きょう の パーティー は **いつなんですか** 。

Is placing "itsunandesuka" correct when I'm trying to make a sentence which
means "When is today's party" while using the grammar pattern "ndesuka"?




The position of いつ is correct and there's nothing wrong with your sentence,
but it's better to use 何時{なんじ} to ask for _when_ in this case.

> 今日{きょう}のパーティーは何時{なんじ}なんですか。

The nuance of using なん is that the topic of the party has already being
introduced as opposed to

> 今日{きょう}のパーティーは何時{なんじ}ですか。

Some people could _also_ argue that the first sentence is slightly more
friendly.

The word いつ is appropriate for any kind of situation and doesn't change
depending on **who is** speaking or **who you are** speaking to.
