Direct and Indirect Questions What is a question?
A question is a request for information or action. When writing a question you should always end the sentence with a question mark (?).

Closed questions
Closed questions demand a yes/no, true/false or right/wrong answer. When we want to ask yes/no questions we can use do/does, am/is/are or have/has as question words. We use do or have or am with personal pronouns (I), we use does or has or is with third person singular pronouns (he, she, it) and with singular noun forms. We use do or have or are with other personal pronouns (you, we they) and with plural noun forms. Yes/no questions with the verb be are created by moving the verb be to the beginning of the sentence. In other words the subject and the verb change their positions in statements and questions. Statement: I am from England. Question: Am I from England?

When forming questions in the present continuous tense use the verb be. I You He She It am are is is is speaking English. speaking English. speaking English. speaking English. speaking English. = = = = = Am Are Is Is Is I you he she it speaking English? speaking English? speaking English? speaking English? speaking English?

We They

are are

speaking English. speaking English.

= =

Are

we

speaking English? speaking English?

Are they

When forming questions in the present simple tense use the verb be, do, or have. The auxiliary verb is placed before the subject.

To Be
If there is one verb in the statement and the verb is a form of be , simply switch the positions of the subject and verb. I You He She It We They am are is is is are are English. English. English. English. English. English. English. = = = = = = = Am Are Is Is Is Are Are I you he she it we they English? English? English? English? English? English? English?

To Do
If there is one verb in the statement and the verb is do, simply switch the positions of the subject and verb. I You He She It We They do. do. does. does. does. do. do. = = = = = = = Do Do Does Does Does Do Do I? you? he? she? it? we? they?

To Have
If there is one verb in the statement and the verb is have, (with or without got to show possession), switch the positions of the subject and verb. I have You have (got) an English book. (got) an English book = = Have I (got) an English book? (got) an English book?

Have you

He has She has It has We have They have

(got) an English book (got) an English book (got) an English book (got) an English book (got) an English book

= = = = =

Has he Has she Has it

(got) an English book? (got) an English book? (got) an English book? (got) an English book? (got) an English book?

Have we Have they

We can also form this style of question with Dohave? here there is no subject-verb inversion, do is placed before the subject. I You He She It We They have breakfast every morning. have breakfast every morning. has breakfast every morning. has breakfast every morning. has breakfast every morning. have breakfast every morning. have breakfast every morning. = = = = = = = Do I have breakfast every morning? have breakfast every morning? have breakfast every morning? have breakfast every morning? have breakfast every morning? have breakfast every morning? have breakfast every morning?

Do you Does he Does she Does it

Do we Do they

If there is one verb, and the verb is not a form of be, the process is more complex. To form a question add the correct form of the verb 'to do' to the beginning. Here there is no subject verb inversion. I You He She It We They speak English. speak English. speaks English. speaks English. speaks English. speak English. speak English. = = = = = = = Do I speak English? speak English? speak English? speak English? speak English? speak English? speak English?

Do you Does he

Does she Does Do it we

Do they

Answering a Closed Question

For example: "Are you from England?" You can answer closed questions with "Yes" or "No". You can also answer closed questions with a slightly longer answer "Yes, I am." or "No, I'm not." Finally you can answer closed questions in the long form "Yes, I am from England." or "No, I'm not from England."

Open Questions
Open questions leave room for a description or opinion, and are more useful in eliciting information Open questions are often called Wh.. questions:There are eight wh-questions - what, when, where, which, who, whom, whose and why and to this list we usually add how as they are all used to elicit particular kinds of information. You use what when you are asking for information about something. You use when to ask about the time that something happened or will happen. You use where to ask questions about place or position. You use which when you are asking for information about one of a limited number of things. You use who or whom when you are asking about someone's identity. You use whose to ask about possession. You use why to ask for a reason. You use how to ask about the way in which something is done. Question word What When Where Which Who Whose Why How Verb is is are is are is is are + your name? the party? you from? your car? you? this web site? this web site here? you? Answer My name is Lynne. The party is on Tuesday. I'm from England. The red car is mine. I'm Lynne. It's mine. Because it is! I'm fine thanks.

What, which and whose can be used with or without a noun as a question word.

For example:What time is it? = What is the time? Which car is yours? = Which is your car? Whose web site is this? = Whose is this web site? Whom can only be used to elicit information about the object of the sentence. Although using whom would be grammatically correct, we normally use who instead because it doesnt sound so formal. For example:"Whom did you see?" would normally be expressed as "Who did you see?" Who, what, which and whose can all be used to elicit information about the subject or object of the sentence. For example:If the answer is "I ate the banana." the object question would be "What did you eat?" and the subject question would be "Who ate the banana?"
