QUESTION



1.   YES –NO QUESTION
            The yes-no question is found in three varieties: the inverted question, the typical exemplar of this kind; the inverted question offering an alternative (which may require more than a simple yes or no for an answer).
The inverted question merely inverts the subject and the first verb of the verb phrase of the corresponding statement pattern when that verb is either a modal or an auxiliary verb or the verb be and sometimes have. The question itself may be positive or negative. 
 
Formulas Yes –No Question
Yes -no question can be made by changing the declarative sentence ( statement) . you have to know which subject , the main verb ( not followed by any verb ) , and the auxiliary verb (primary auxiliary verb / capital ) .

Example :
are you going ? yes/no
aren’t you going? no

2.   W.H QUESTION
            Wh- question is a question to ask for information . Information requested may include the time , place , people , objects , things , reason , or how . As with other forms of questions , namely : yes -no and tags , wh- question also terminated by a question mark ( question mark ) .
 
Formula Wh- Question
 
Wh- question preceded by : what , where, when , why , which, who, Whom , Whose , or how. Wh- word is a pronoun . Where, when , why , and how to replace an adverb ( adverb ) ; what and WHO to replace the subject or object ; Whose to replace possessive ; and Whom , what , who, and roomates to replace the object .
Let's make permisalan with indefinite pronouns : subject = someone or something to indicate that the subject is not known
 
 
Wh- Questions to Ask Subject
 
To form wh- question in the first and second sentences , simply by changing the indefinite pronoun with WHO and zoom while in the third sentence , indefinite pronouns along its apostrophe is replaced by Whose . As for the fourth sentence , the detail of the subject (this book ) is replaced by roomates . Here's an example sentence wh- questions based on four declarative sentence above .
 
then the formula wh- question to ask the subject:
 
Who / What + predicate ?
or
 
Whose / Which noun + + predicate ? ( simpe tense)
Whose / roomates + noun + be + subject + present participle ( progressive tense)

Example :
Who called my boss 5 minutes ago?
What inspired her to visit Rhome?

3.   QUESTION TAGS

As idioms ( English expression ) , question tags are frequently used parts in everyday conversation a native speaker . Although grammar , pronunciation , and intonation of its kind , a person can easily be recognized not as a native speaker if you do not use question tags .

Formula Question tags
linking verb " be " / auxiliary verb + pronoun +/- notes
Question tags consist of the main verb ( if it is a linking verb " be " ) , dummy auxiliary verb " do / does / did " ( if the main verb is not a linking verb ) or the first auxiliary verb ( if it consists of the main verb and one or more auxiliary) +/- notes + subjects ( pronoun ) which is adapted to the main sentence .

Pronouns
Pronouns are small words that take the place of a noun. We can use a pronoun instead of a noun. Pronouns are words like: he, you, ours, themselves, some, each... If we didn't have pronouns, we would have to repeat a lot of nouns.
Ø Types of Pronouns
There are many different types of pronouns. Below you will find a short description and a few examples of each. For more examples.:
1.      Personal Pronouns
Here are the personal pronouns.I, me, we, us, you, she, her, he, him, it, they, them
For each of these pronouns, we can tell the...
·         Person (Who is speaking?)
Number (Is the pronoun singular or plural?)
·         Gender (Is the pronoun masculine, feminine, or neuter?)
For instance, she is third person (the person being spoken about), singular, feminine while we is first person (the people speaking), plural, neuter.
2.      Relative Pronouns
A relative pronoun is a pronoun that introduces a relative clause. It is called a "relative" pronoun because it "relates" to the word that its relative clause modifies. Here is an example:
·         The person who phoned me last night is my teacher. In the above example, "who"
·         relates to "The person", which "who phoned me last night" modifies introduces the relative clause "who phoned me last night"
There are five relative pronouns: who, whom, whose, which, that*
Who (subject) and whom (object) are generally only for people. Whose is for possession. Which is for things. That can be used for things and people only in defining relative clauses (clauses that are essential to the sentence and do not simply add extra information)
3.      Demonstrative Pronouns
There are only four demonstrative pronouns! this, that, these, those. We use these to point out particular people or things.Sometimes, those words are used before nouns. In those cases, they are adjectives, not pronouns. (Remember, adjectives describe nouns.)
·         Bring me that book. (adjective)
·         Bring me that. (pronoun)


4.      Indefinite Pronouns
The prefix in- means not. Indefinite pronouns are not definite. We don't know whom or what these refer to  anyone, something, all, most, some
·         Someone yelled my name. (Who? We don't know.)
When indefinite pronouns are used before nouns, they are actually acting as adjectives, not pronouns.
·         Both people smiled at me. (adjective)
·         Both smiled at me. (pronoun)

These two types of pronouns end in -self or -selves. himself, herself, myself, itself. Those words have different names depending on how they are being used.
A reflexive pronoun is used to refer to the subject of the sentence.
·         I will go to the school myself. (reflexive)
·         An intensive pronoun is used to emphasize another noun.
·         He himself visited the school. (intensive)

6.      Interrogative Pronouns
These are pronouns that are found in questions. Another name for a question is an interrogative sentence. Interrogative pronouns often begin interrogative sentences. what, whom, whose, who, which
·         Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?
·         Which jacket should I wear?

7.      Possessive Pronouns
Possessive pronouns show ownership. Another word for ownership is possession. his, hers, your, theirs. When possessive pronouns are used before nouns, they are actually being used as adjectives, not pronouns.
·         Our family has vacation next week. (adjective)
·         That car is ours. (pronoun)
