    2. Information Questions
    These are questions for which the answer is
    more than yes or no; there must be some
    information in the answer.

    There are three different rules in this part:


    A. WHO or WHAT in subject questions
    B. WHOM or WHAT in complement questions
    C. WHEN, WHERE, HOW and WHY questions

    Rika Yanuarika
    A. WHO and WHAT in subject questions
    A subject question is one in which the subject is unknown.

    WHO/WHAT + verb + complement/object + (modifier)?

    Examples:
    • Who opened the door? [Someone opened the door]

    • What happened last night? [Something happened last night]

    Rika Yanuarika
    B. WHOM or WHAT in complement questions
    A complement question is one in which the complement is unknown.

    WHOM/WHAT + auxiliary + subject + verb + (modifier)?

    Examples:
    • Whom does Ahmad know from Venezuela?
    Ahmad knows someone from Venezuela.
    • What did George buy at the store?
    George bought something at the store.

    Rika Yanuarika
    C. WHEN, WHERE, HOW and WHY questions
    These questions are formed the same as complement questions

    WHEN/WHERE/WHY/HOW + auxiliary + subject + verb


    +(complement) + (modifier)?

    Examples:
    • When did John move to London?
    John moved to London last year.
    • Where does Jamil live?

    • How did Maria get to school yesterday?

    3. Embedded Questions
    An embedded question is one which is included in a sentence or
    another question. The word order is NOT that of typical questions
    except for subject questions.
    NOTE:
    There must NOT be an auxiliary [do/does/did] between the question
    word and the subject in an embedded question.

    Examples:
    Q : Where will the meeting take place?
    EQ : We haven't ascertained where the meeting will take place.

    Q: Why did the plane land at the wrong airport?


    EQ: The authorities cannot figure out why the plane landed at the
    wrong airport. Rika Yanuarika

    Q: Where is she?
    EQ: Do you know where she is?

    Q: Is he a doctor?
    EQ: I want to know if he is a doctor.

    Q: How often does the bus run at night?


    EQ: Do you know how often the bus runs at night?

    Q: Where did he go?


    EQ: The teacher asked us where he went. Rika Yanuarika
    4. Tag Questions
    In a tag question, the speaker makes a statement, but it's not
    completely certain of the truth, so he or she uses a tag question
    to verify the precious statement.

    Examples:
    • There are only twenty-eight days in February, aren't there?
    • It's raining now, isn't it?
    • The boys don't have class tomorrow, do they?
    • Nothing happened last night, did it?
