✅Yes-no questions

📕Yes or no questions are questions whose expected answer is either "yes" or "no".

How to form yes-no questions

In English, a special word order (Verb Subject Object) is used to form yes-no questions.

Examples:

Affirmative Yes or No Question

They are American.
Are they American?

She is nice.
Is she nice?

The rules

✅ If the main verb of the sentence is "to be", simply invert the subject and the verb to be:

Examples:

They are American.
 Are theyAmerican?

They are nice.
 Are they nice?

✅If u wanna use present progressive u should make it like 👉 subject +( to be) am , is , are +verb + ing .


Examples:
They are visiting Paris.
 Are they visiting Paris?


✅ If the verb is in the present tense, add either do or does and put the main verb in its base form
