Questions and negatives
De regel
Turning a statement into a question or a negative is a mechanical operation in English, and the mechanics are worth doing slowly until they are automatic.
Onthoud
- Identify the helper: be, a modal, have in a perfect, or none.
- With no helper, insert do, does or did and return the verb to base form.
- A question word goes first, and the inversion happens behind it.
Veelgemaakte fout om te vermijden
When the question word is the subject, there is no inversion and no do at all: who called you keeps statement order.
Test jezelf
Take five statements through both transformations, then practise the topic.
