Question Formation — Wh-questions and Yes/No Questions — First Year Secondary School
Learning Objectives
- Form Yes/No questions correctly
- Form Wh-questions using question words
- Use the correct word order in questions
I. Yes/No Questions
Questions that expect a yes/no answer are formed by inverting the subject and the auxiliary verb.
With the verb “to be”:
- She is a teacher. → Is she a teacher?
- They are happy. → Are they happy?
With auxiliary verbs (do, does, did, have, can, will…):
- You like coffee. → Do you like coffee?
- He speaks Arabic. → Does he speak Arabic?
- They went to school. → Did they go to school?
Rule: Auxiliary + Subject + Main verb + ?
II. Wh-Questions
Wh-questions begin with a question word (What, Where, When, Why, Who, Whose, Which, How) and seek specific information.
| Question Word | Use | Example |
|---|---|---|
| What | Thing, action | What is your name? |
| Where | Place | Where do you live? |
| When | Time | When does the class start? |
| Why | Reason | Why are you late? |
| Who | Person (subject) | Who is your teacher? |
| Whom | Person (object) | Whom did you meet? |
| Whose | Possession | Whose book is this? |
| Which | Choice | Which subject do you prefer? |
| How | Manner | How do you go to school? |
Word order: Question Word + Auxiliary + Subject + Main verb + ?
