Show transcript
The consonantal [r] makes a rolling sound at the back of the throat and the vocalic [r] has a gentle ‘ah’ sound. A closed question is formed by swapping the position of the verb and subject in a statement. This is called inversion. An open question is formed by adding a question word before the verb at the start of a closed question. Use 'du' questions for informal singular ‘you’, 'ihr' questions for informal plural ‘you’, and 'Sie' for formal ‘you’. Use rising intonation, as well as correct word order, to make it clear that you are asking a question.
