 Question order with: Wh
Wh-questions begin with what, when, where, who, whom, which, whose, why
and how. We use them to ask for information.
The answer cannot be yes or no: Auxiliary verbs:
Be, Do or Have.
AUXILIARY
WH- SUBJECT MAIN VERB/WH-
VERB

A:When do you finish college? Auxiliary Verb in Question:

B:Next year. Be: When are you leaving?
A:Who is your favourite actor? Do: Where do they live?
B:George Clooney for sure! Have: What has she done now?
Modal: Who would she stay with?
Without an auxiliary verb
When what, who, which or whose is the subject or part of the subject, we do not use the
auxiliary. We use the word order subject + verb:
What fell off the wall? Which horse won?
Who bought this? Whose phone rang?
Responding to wh-questions
Wh-questions ask for information and we do not expect a yes-no answer to a wh-
question. We expect an answer which gives information:
A:Where’s the coffee machine? (We expect an answer about the location of the
coffee machine.)
B:It’s in the room next to the reception.
A:How old is your dog? (We expect an answer about the age of the dog.)
B:She’s about five. I’m not very sure.
 Question order with: DO
When we want to form yes/no questions, we should use the verb “Do”. This
applies to both simple present and simple past tenses. Did= used for the past
Here is the word order for questions with do: DO= I, you, we they
DOES= He, she, it
DO
DOES SUBJECT BASE FORM OF THE COMPLEMENT
DID VERB

Does she drive that expensive car? Yes, she does

Do they speak fluent french? No, they don´t
Do you have any sisters or brothers? No, I don´t
Did you do the homework? Yes, I did
 Other tipes of quesitons
There is two alternativas of questions, bisides wh or do, there is the yes or no
questions , the yes or no questions are used to get a simple aunser:
Did You take out they trash? ORYES

Have You clean You room?

NO

And disjunctive questions, that are use to make a direct

question that is closer to be a comand

Are You gonna clean your room!?
