Questions are sentences which ask something. When we write a question,
we should put a question mark (?) at the end of the sentence.

There are 3 groups of question sentences:

1) Questions about subject. When you ask about subject you start your
sentence with verb to be and don't forget your question marks in the
end.

Verb to be + subject?

For example:

Are you ok?

Are we friends?

Is today Thursday?

Am I sick?

Is she a doctor?

Is dinner ready?
 2) Questions about verb (subject’s act). When you ask about verb you
start your sentence with verb Do/Does/Can and don't forget your
question marks.

Question sentence’s structure will be:

Do/Does/+ subject+verb

Can+ subject+verb

These are examples for you:

Questions about act Questions about possible act

Do you live in Ufa? Can you swim?

Do you like pizza? Can you read this text?

Does he come from London? Can you help me with dinner?

Do you visit a doctor? Can you pass me that file, please?

3) W Questions, about the rest of words of sentence.

W questions words are:

What? Where? Which? When? Whom? Who? How?

WQuestion sentence structures are:

WQ+ Do/Does+ subject+verb?

WQ+ Verb to be + subject?

For examples:

WQ+ Do/Does+ subject+verb? WQ+ Verb to be + subject?

Where do you lose your key? Where are you?
