question 3

WH question

# WH questions ask for information.  They are different than Yes/No questions. There are 6 different WH question words:

Question Answer Example
What Thing What is that?
When Time When is the game?
Who Person Who do you live with?
Where Place Where do you live?
Why Reason Why are you happy?
How Directions/Feelings How are you?
  
STRUCTUREWH questions in simple present use “do” or “be”: 
WH Questions with "do"WH   +   DO/DOES   +   SUBJECT    +   VERB 
Examples:     
  • Where do you work? 
  • When does she wake up? 
  • Who is your brother?  
WH Questions with "be"WH   +   BE    +    SUBJECT
Examples:        

  •  Where are you from? 
  • Who is that man?
  • When is your class?
WH Questions are similar to  YES/NO questions except they have WH words at the start.
Examples:
Are you from Canada?
     * Where
are you from?
Here are some example questions and answers:

  • Where are you from? 
  • I am from Japan.
  • What is your name? 
  • My name is Jacob.
  • When do you wake up? 
  • I wake up at 7:30 am.
  •  Why are you angry? 
  • I am angry because I did not pass my exam.

Question tags

#Question tags are the short questions that we put on the end of sentences – particularly in spoken English. There are lots of different question tags but the rules are not difficult to learn.

Positive/negative

If the main part of the sentence is positive, the question tag is negative ….

  • He’s a doctor, isn’t he?
  • You work in a bank, don’t you?
... and if the main part of the sentence is negative, the question tag is positive.
  • You haven’t met him, have you?
  • She isn’t coming, is she?
With auxiliary verbs

The question tag uses the same verb as the main part of the sentence. If this is an auxiliary verb (‘have’, ‘be’) then the question tag is made with the auxiliary verb.

  • They’ve gone away for a few days, haven’t they?
  • They weren’t here, were they?
  • He had met him before, hadn’t he?
  • This isn’t working, is it?
Without auxiliary verbs

If the main part of the sentence doesn’t have an auxiliary verb, the question tag uses an appropriate form of ‘do’.

  • I said that, didn’t I?
  • You don’t recognise me, do you?
  • She eats meat, doesn’t she?
With modal verbs

If there is a modal verb in the main part of the sentence the question tag uses the same modal verb.

  • They couldn’t hear me, could they?
  • You won’t tell anyone, will you?
With ‘I am’

Be careful with question tags with sentences that start ‘I am’. The question tag for ‘I am’ is ‘aren’t I?’

  • I’m the fastest, aren’t I?
Intonation

Question tags can either be ‘real’ questions where you want to know the answer or simply asking for agreement when we already know the answer.

If the question tag is a real question we use rising intonation. Our tone of voice rises.
If we already know the answer we use falling intonation. Our tone of voice falls.


Embedded questions are questions within another statement or question. They function as noun clauses and as such should generally follow statement, not question, order.
What time is it?
I know what time is it.
I know what time it is.
Where did she go?
I don't know where did she go.
I don't know where she went.
What does he do for a living?
I wonder what does he do.
I wonder what he does.
Who is she?
Can you tell me who is she?
Can you tell me who she is?

When using adjectives as complements, it is okay to use question order for embedded questions:
Who's hungry?
I wonder who is hungry.

(Question)
(Okay)
In some cases, depending on the focus of the sentence, question order may be used:
Who is the doctor?
I know who the doctor is.
Who is a doctor?
I know who is a doctor (and who is not).
