Hi Andrea,

Thank you for pointing this out, I have corrected Chris' original answer to Z.

Qui aime-t-elle? = Who does she love?

Qu'aime-t-elle? = What does she love ?

( although as Chris points out you would probably opt for the other two ways of saying this)

Qui is never elided to differentiate from que in meaning.

Bonne Continuation!

Qui aime-t-elle? -- Whom does she love?

For the question "what does she like?" you'd probably use either of the two following forms: qu'est-ce qu'elle aime? or elle aime quoi? They sound more natural than qu'aime-t-elle?
