Questions
In English there are two main kinds of question: “ yes / no “ questions and “ Wh “ questions ( or questions with question words )
Questions
Yes / No questions:
This kind of question needs no question words and the answer is either “ yes “ or “ no “
Ex:
- Are you a student? – Yes, I am.
- No, I’m not
- Does he work hard? – Yes she does
- No, she doesn’t
Questions
“Yes / No” questions are formed like this:
When the verb of the sentence is to be, put the verb before the subject.
Ex:
You are a student. Are you a student?
She is busy. Is she busy?
Questions
When the sentence has an auxiliary verb, put the auxiliary before the subject.
Ex:
She will come. Will she come?
She can drive. Can she drive?
Questions
When the verb is in the present simple, put “do” or “does” before the subject.
Ex:
They live in Paris. Do they live in Paris?
He studies hard. Does he study hard?
Questions
2. “ Wh “ questions:
This kind of question always begins with one of the following question words: How, What, When, Where, Which, Who, Whose, and Why.
Questions
“ Wh” questions are formed like this:
-When the question word is the subject, the word order does not change. It is the same as in the statement. In this case, singular verbs are often used after “ who “ and
“ what “ although the answer may be plural.
Ex: - He wants to play football.
Who wants to play football?
Questions
When the question word is not the subject, we change the positions of the subject and verb as we do in
“ yes / no “ questions.
Ex: - She is busy. Why is she busy?
This is my pen. Whose is this pen?
She words hard. How does she work?
Exclamations
Exclamations are often formed with words like: How, What, So, and Such. Or negative question forms and can also be such short phrases as:
“ wonderful”, “ my God “, etc. Exclamations are always spoken with a rise or fall of the voice, and written with an exclamation mark.
Exclamations
Ex:
- Look at that fall. How wonderful!
What a match!
What a party we had!
Your mother’s so kind!
He’s such a naughty boy!
