TYPES OF QUESTION
1. GENERAL QUESTION

Common questions that can be


answered with a simple “yes” or
“no” are logically called yes/no
questions. As a rule, this kind of
question relates to the whole
sentence, and not to a separate
element of it.
FOR EXAMPLE:

Do you like this country?


Does Jane know about your new job?
Can I call my sister?
Is it cold outside?
Are they ready for the trip?
Are you hungry?
PECIAL QUESTION

Special Question
A special question begins with an interrogative word or
phrase (Where…, How…, Why…, How many…, What
colour…, etc.) and is spoken with a falling intonation.
The order of words is the same as in general questions
but the interrogative word or phrase precedes the
auxiliary verb.
For example
What is it?
What's this?
Where do you live?
Whom should we talk to?
Whose jacket is this?
When will the train arrive?
Why. Why don't we visit
him now?
Alternative question:

alternative question gives a
choice of two or more answers in
the question and includes or
Examples:
Are we eating in or out this evening?

Does she work in the city or in the suburbs?

Will they buy a house or rent somewhere?

Are there trains or buses from the airport to Belgrade?


TAG QUESTION
Tag questions have the same subject and
helping verb as the sentence they follow.

.When the sentence is positive, the tag question


is negative and when the sentence is negative,
the tag question is positive.

It's nice, isn't it?


I'm ready, aren't I?

I buy food, don't I?


You like it, don't you?
He has time, doesn't he?
It doesn't work, does it?
