"What time do we start?"

Translation: 我们几点开始？

[nangua45]

How about "几点我们开始"?
Is it acceptable?

[HelenWalte14]

几点我们开始 Why not?

[maartendoc]

开 (kāi) = to open/to start/to turn on
始 (shǐ) = to begin/to start
开始 (kāishǐ) = to start

[AkJyD8]

Why can't you put the "What time" at the end, like when asking for peoples name you can say "You are called what"

[Dr_Jerry]

You mean like, 我们开始几点? I've never heard a construction like that in China, where it's typical to put references to time at the beginning of the sentence.

[PeterGerge3]

我们什么时候开始 - would this be acceptable?

[orgat]

This doesn't necessarily mean what hour, but when.
几点 means what time, what hour.

[Dr_Jerry]

Yes, that's perfectly acceptable. I got it wrong also and reported it.

[HelenWalte14]

几点我们开。。。。 why not?

[AkJyD8]

Why can't the question go at the end this time?

Like "You work out where?". You can do it for asking names for example "You are called what"

[Chaoty]

Why we don't use 从 here?

[clarabie]

几点 is a Time Phrase, so the construction is Subject + Time Question Phrase + Predicate (+ Object) https://chinesefor.us/lessons/ask-when-chinese-what-time-shenme-shihou/
