I can understand and form questions in the present tense using intonation, inversion and 'est-ce que' to get to know somebody new.
Show transcript
Yes/no questions can be formed by raising the intonation at the end of the sentence.
Yes/no questions can be formed by inversion, which means swapping the position of the subject and the verb.
Yes/no questions can also be formed by adding est-ce que to a statement. Est-ce que becomes est-ce qu' before a vowel.
In French there is no word for 'do/does' in yes/no questions.
