QUESTIONS

HOW DO I ASK A QUESTION

•2 easy ways•Use your voice•You all like to study?

•Add “n’est-ce pas”•N’est-ce pas = …right?•You all like to study, right?

2 OTHER WAYS• Add “est-ce que” (is it that)• Est-ce que vous aimez étudier?

• Use Inversion – flip the subject pronoun and verb• Aimez-vous étudier?

• For both ways, you can be more specific, by adding a question word at the beginning.• Quand est-ce que vous aimez étudier?• Quand aimez-vous étudier?

2 WEIRD THINGS ABOUT INVERSION

• You have to invert with a pronoun.• Lycée Hillsboro, est-il grand?• Les amies de Marie, sont-elles

intelligentes?• When using il, elle, or on and an –er verb – add a “t” in the middle.• M. Johnson, où aime-t-il manger?• L’amie de Paul, quand parle-t-elle au

téléphone?

WRITE EACH OF THESE TWO WAYS
