About Question Forms exercises
Forming questions in English requires auxiliary inversion (moving the auxiliary before the subject) and, for subject questions, question-word subjects (who, what) without additional auxiliary inversion. English also uses indirect questions, question tags, and reported questions. Each has its own structural rules.
These exercises cover the full range of question formation: yes/no questions, wh-questions, subject vs. object questions, indirect questions (Could you tell me where the station is?), and question tags (You haven't seen him, have you?). Each level builds on the previous one.
Check the word order first. In most questions the auxiliary comes before the subject: Where did she go? Do not add do when who or what is the subject: Who called you? In an indirect question the order goes back to statement order: Can you tell me where she went? A question tag repeats the auxiliary of the main clause, or uses do, does or did when there is none, and reverses its polarity: She likes tea, doesn't she? A common error is Do you know where is the station?, which keeps question order inside the indirect clause. Questions with be or a modal verb need no do: Is she at home? Can you swim? Short answers reuse the same auxiliary: Did you see it? Yes, I did.
