If the verb group has more than one word (compound tenses), the first word (auxiliary verb) comes atthe beginning of the sentence, before the subject. The rest of the verb group comes after the subject.When asking a question, we place the modal verb before the subject, too.□ Is he coming?□ Has he been working since morning?□ Can John swim?3.If the verb group consists of only a main verb (simple tenses), we use the auxiliary verb do, does, didat th e b e g in n in g of th e se n te n ce , b e fo re th e su b je ct.After the subject we use the base form of the verb.□ Do the British love sport?□ Does your wife work?140□Did you go out last night?QUESTIONSNOTE:ANDNEGATIVESa) when the main verb is do, you still have to add do, does, did before the subject.□Do they do the work themselves?□ Did you do the “A level” examination last term?b) if the main verb is have, we usually put do, does, did before the subject.□ Does anyone have a question?□Did you have a good time?N e g a tiv e sTo make negative verb forms, we put not after an auxiliary verb or be.

When you want someone to give you more information, you ask a “wh” -question, which begins witha “wh’’-word: WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHICH, WHOSE, WHOM, WHY, HOW, HOW MANY/MUCH.Such questions are called SPECIAL QUESTIONS.1.The “wh” -word comes first, then you follow the rules for the general question.□ What is the time, please?□ Why did you do it?□ Where have you been hiding lately?2. When a “wh”-word is the subject of a question, the question word comes first, then the verb group.

A question tag is a short phrase that is added to the end of a statement to turn it into a question. These areused to ask someone to confirm or disagree with what you are saying or when you want to sound more polite.2. A question tag consists of a verb and a pronoun.
The verb in a question tag is chosen the same way wedo it in a general question.3. With a positive statement we usually use a negative question tag, ending in - n ’t.
