"Who lives here?"

Translation: यहाँ कौन रहता है?

[Shawna271363]

Why does रहती not work here?

[duolingonaut]

Who is obviously male...

[Gita-ji]

By default, with question words, assume they are masculine (which includes mixed gender) — unless you know they refer to something exclusively feminine.

[bhasanova]

Surely both "yahan kaun rahta hai" and "kaun yahan rahta hai" should be acceptable here?

[plastoquinone]

Yeah maybe they just have different emphasis...

[nbbarathy]

यहाँ क़ौन रह रहा है ? Is this sentence correct ?

[ph.smaranika]

Yahan bhoot reheta hai !!
