Firstly we will learn the different ways of saying it then teach you some remarks

It is said what if you want to start the sentence by ce que or ce qui

Examples what I cannot understand is why he left England without telling me

What saved his life was that the door of the car was opened

                This is what we call statuts in France

It is said which if ce que or ce qui is in the middle of the sentence

He left England wiithout telling me which I cannot understand

An exclamation may de define a sound ,word  or short sentence that you say suddenly and loudly because you are surprised , angry or excited
