Word Order in Questions General questions In general questions with main verbs, the auxiliary verb (do, be, have, will) is placed before the subject, and the main verb follows the subject, so the word order is: auxiliary verb + subject + main verb (+ object + adverbial modifier). Do you live here? - Yes, I do. / Yes, I live here. - No, I don't. / No, I don't live here. Does Bell work? - Yes, she does. - No, she doesn't. Special questions When the question is put to any part of the sentence, except the subject, the word order after the interrogative word (how, whom, what, when, where, why, etc. ) is the same as in general questions: interrogative + auxiliary verb + subject + main verb (+ object + adverbial modifier). How did you get there? - I got there by bus. / By bus. How much did it cost? - It cost 10 dollars. / Ten dollars. Questions to the subject When the interrogative word " who" or " what" is the subject in the question (i. e. the question is put to the subject), the question is asked without an auxiliary verb and the word order is that of a statement: interrogative word (i. e. the subject) + main verb (+ object + adverbial modifier). The same word order is used when the subject of the question is in the form of which / whose / how many + noun. Who told you about it? - Tom told me. / Tom did. / Tom. Who called her yesterday? - I called her. / I did. Alternative questions Word order in alternative questions (questions with a choice) is the same as in general questions. Are you a first-year or a third-year student? - I'm a third-year student. Where does he live: in Paris or Rome? - He lives in Rome. / In Rome. Tag questions Tag questions (disjunctive questions) consist of two parts. The first part is a statement. A short general question (the tag) is added to the end of this statement. If the statement is affirmative, the tag is negative. If the statement is negative, the tag is affirmative. You know him, don't you? You don't live here, do you?
