TYPES OF QUESTIONS

In English, there are two main types of questions which are;

  • Yes / No Questions
  • Wh – Questions

YES / NO QUESTIONS

Yes / No questions are the questions which are answered yes or no. It means when we are asking yes/no questions, we are expecting the answer, yes or no.

To form Yes/No questions, we use one of these verbs: auxiliary verbs ( be, do and have ) or modal verbs ( can, may,etc.).

We can not use questions words like what, how, why, who, etc. whilw making Yes/No questions.


FORMING YES/NO QUESTIONS

Yes / No questions are made, using the verb (am, is, are, was, were, have, had, do, does, did, can, will, should etc.) at the beginning of a sentence. Namely,subject and verb change their position in statement and question.

With An Auxiliary Verb ( “Be” or “Do” or “Have” ) or Modal Verb


With “HAVE”

The verb “ Have ” has two forms in the present; have and has.

The verb “ Have ” has one form in the past; had.

SubjectPresent Form “Do”Past Form “Do”
I, You, We, You, Theyhavehad
He, She, Ithashad
ATTENTION:
We use “have” both as a main verb and as an auxiliary verb.

1.If we use “have” as a main verb in a sentence, we use “do” as an auxiliary verb to make negative and question sentences.

Example:

  • I have a car. ( have is a main verb – positive sentence )
  • I don’t have a car. ( we use “do” as an auxiliary verb to make the sentence in negative )
  • Do I have a car? ( we use “do” as an auxiliary verb to make the sentence in question )
Have

2. If we use “have” as an auxiliary verb ( especially before -ed (past participle) forms to make the present and past perfect tense ) in a sentence, we use “have” to make negative and question sentences.

For Prefect Tenses(Present & Past Perfect Tenses and Present & Past Perfect Progressive Tenses )

Example:

  • I have finished my homework. ( have is an auxiliary verb, finish is a main verb – positive sentence )
  • I haven’t finished my homework. ( we use “have” as an auxiliary verb to make the sentence in negative )
  • Have I finished my homework? ( we use “have” as an auxiliary verb to make the sentence in question )

For Other Uses ( have got = have , have got to = have to ( modal verb) and had better ( modal verb))

Example:

  • You have got a cat. ( have is an auxiliary verb – positive sentence )
  • You haven’t got a cat. ( we use “have” as an auxiliary verb to make the sentence in negative )
  • Have you got a cat? ( we use “have” as an auxiliary verb to make the sentence in question )

Not 1:“have got” and “have” mean the same. “have got” is usually used in British English, on the other hand, “have” is usually used in American English. Generally, “have got” is informal such as “have got to = have to”.

Not 2: “had better” refers to the present or the future. We use “had better” to talk about actions which we think people should do. The verb form is always had, not have. We normally shorten it as ” ’d better ” in informal situations. It is followed by the infinitive without to.

Example:

  • We had better study hard. ( positive sentence )
  • We hadbetter not study hard. ( negative sentence)
  • Had we better study hard? ( question sentence )
  • We had better study hard, hadn’t we? ( question sentence )
  • Yes, we had better. ( short answer – in short answers “had beter” is repeated )

Rules:

1. If the sentence has a main verb and an auxiliary verb “have”,question form is

Have ( as an auxiliary verb ) + Subject + Main Verb + ….

SentenceQuestion
I have studied English.Have I studied English?
He has finished his homework.Has he finished his homework?
The film had started.Had the film started?
We had locked the door.Had we locked the door?
They have moved house.Have they moved house?
Have questions in spanish

2. When there is more than one auxiliary verb in a sentence ( in perfect progressive tenses and in passive voice ), we put first auxiliary verb at the beginning of a sentence, the other(s) comes after the subject. In this case,

Question Form is;

Auxiliary Verb + Subject + Auxiliary Verb + Main Verb + ….

Yes + Subject + Auxiliary Verb ( + … )

No + Subject + Auxiliary Verb + Not ( + …. )
