We use the question words who (for people), what/which (for things), when (for time), where (for places), why (for reasons) and how (for more details).
What do I need to know about question words?

I know you know the basics, but questions are quite tricky. Let's just go over the main rules.

We usually form questions by putting an auxiliary verb, or a modal verb, before the subject.

When the verb 'to be' is the main verb, we don't use auxiliary verbs.

We can add question words to get more or different information.
Where did you go swimming? > In the swimming pool in town.
Why did you go there? > Because it's a nice, big pool.
Who did you go swimming with? > With Amy.
What time did you meet Amy? > At 10 o'clock.
Which pool did you go in? > The serious one, without the slides!
How did you get there? > On the bus.
I see that questions sometimes finish with prepositions.

Yes, that's very common.
Who were you out with?
What have you got that bagfor?
What's all thatabout?
Where are you callingfrom?
OK, that all seems straightforward.

Yes, but do you know about subject and object questions?

Sorry?

If who, what or which is the subject of the question, it comes before the verb and we don't use do as an auxiliary.
Who went out for curry? (subject - who)
What happened? (subject - what)
Which looks better, this or that one? (subject - which)
Object questions follow the structure we looked at before.
Who did you go out for curry with? (subject - you; object - who)
Which restaurant does Oliver like most? (subject - Oliver; object - which)
What did they do after the restaurant? (subject - they; object - what)
Here's a little test for you, then. A cat killed a mouse and a dog killed the cat.

1 What killed the mouse?
2 What did the cat kill?
3 What killed the cat?
4 What did the dog kill?

OK, 1 the cat, 2 the mouse, 3 the dog, 4 the cat. Right?

Exactly! You've got it.

Any more tricky things about question words?

Well in reported speech or indirect questions, question words come in the middle of sentences. In these types of sentence, the word order does not change. We don't put the verb to be before the subject or use an auxiliary to form a question, as in a normal question:
I asked her what she was doing at the weekend.
Do you knowwhere the post office is?
Can you tell mehow much it costs? What are you doing at the weekend?
Where is the post office?
How much does it cost?
Hmm, why do you use indirect questions if they are more complicated?

Well, they are more polite, especially if you are talking to a stranger.

OK, I'll remember to say: ' Do you know where the post office is?'

Good. Can you make that even more polite?

How about: ' Excuse me, could you tell me where the post office is, please?'

Fine! That'll do. Do you really need a post office?!

Illustrated by Ricky Audi

Before words were words, a boy named Yes lived in a small village in a small kingdom. Yes was good at everything. He was the best, smartest and most liked person in his village.

Yes had a brother, and his name was No. No was jealous of his brother, because he was not much good at anything himself. Whenever the villagers asked No for help, he

refused because he didn't like people very much. Whenever someone asked Yes for a favor, he would gladly help, and he secretly didn't mind the fact that it irritated No when he did.

One day Yes and No's father, Okay wenton a long journey and heleft his two sonsin charge of all the animals. Yes took good care of the great guck, and the icks, and the three-toed yock. [Keep in mind, my dear friend, that the guck, ick, and three-toed yock werevery old animals, so you might know them by different names today.] No didn't want to be bothered with the boring tasks involved with taking care of the animals. So instead of helping his brother, No went down to the lake and threw rocks into the water.

A few days after his father left, Yes asked his brother to watch the three-toed yock while he went to find some food to eat. Instead of doing what Yes asked, No lay down, shut his eyes, and forgot about the yock.

It just so happened that the King had a personal road nearby, andhe traveled on it often. So often, that when the three-toed yock wandered onto the road, the King's carriage was passing by and had to swerve to avoid hitting it. The King was thrown from the carriage and fell to the ground and hurt himself.

The King demanded to know why a three-toed yock had been allowed on his road and asked all the villagers for an explanation. Yes was always honest, so he told the King the entire story.

The King thought for a moment, and then he came up with an idea that he was quite happy with. Yes and No were to work in the castle as his personal assistants as punishment for what was later referred to as the worst three-toed yock and carriage accident in the Kingdom's history.

The King needed help with many things around the castle because a King cannot be bothered with the daily tasks involved with running a Kingdom. However, soon after his decision about the two brothers, the King realized that only Yes would be of any use to him as a servant. Whenever the King asked No to bring him anything, it would get thrown away, broken, or eaten, without exception. The King was quite sure that No was the worst servant in the entire world.

The brothers' most important task was to help pick the food for a grand party that the King was throwing later that night. Cooks from all over the Kingdom lined up at the castle's gate to offer the King their food for the party. Of course, the King could not go and grab the food himself, so he asked Yes and No to do it for him.

The first cook came up the gate and yelled to the Gatekeeper, "I bring my delicious ugberry pie for the King's banquet!" The King heard this and thought that ugberry pie would be perfect for such an event (and he would love to eat the leftovers). He didn't want anything to happen to the ugberry pie, so he yelled "Yes!" and then asked him to go fetch it.

The next cook stepped up to the gate. "I offer the King grukie soup!" he said.

The King didn't like grukie soup very much and he knew just how to get rid of it.

"No!" he yelled and then sent No out to retrieve the soup. No dropped the soup before the King could even smell it.

This went on for hours. If the king liked a dish, he would yell "Yes!" and it would be included in the night's feast. If he did not, everyone would hear a loud "NO!" and the dish would be destroyed moments later by a servant with a very bad attitude.

Pretty soon this started catching on around the Kingdom, for if a King does something, his loyal subjects are never far behind. If they didn't want a second scoop of potatoes, they would say "No." And if they liked what someone was offering, they would say, "Yes." And ever since that day in a small village in a small kingdom, Yes has meant Yes, and No has meant No.

This small kingdom also happens to be the birthplace of Yes and No's cousins, Please and Thanks, but that is another story for another time...

English Grammar Notes

Can is a modal verb.

Can is used to express ability or to say that something is possible.

Can is the same for all subjects. We don't add an 'S' in the third person (like other verbs)

The verb that comes after Can is in the infinitive without to:

I can speak Spanish. (= it is possible for me to speak Spanish = I have the ability to speak Spanish)

We can see our neighbour in the garden.

They can play the guitar.

For more uses of Can see: Modal Verbs: Can - Could

Negative

To form the negative we add " not" after can to form one word: cannot.

We can also contract the negative to form can't. (can't = cannot)

Questions

To from the question we change the position of the subject and the auxiliary verb.

The main verb is still in the infinitive without to.

Remember that you can use short answers:

Can I sit here please? Yes, you can.

Can you speak Chinese? No, I can't.

Summary Chart

Impersonal Can

Sometimes You can and Can you...? are impersonal and refer to people in general.

You can see many stars at night from here. (= people in general can see many stars)

It doesn't necessarily refer to you but people in general.

You can't run naked in the middle of the street.

Not necessarily saying YOU can't run naked in the middle of the street but in general it is not possible for anyone.

Ahora que sabes la función y forma del presente continuo en inglés, ¿qué te parece si empezamos a formar oraciones?

Affirmative form / Forma Afirmativa

Tal como lo vimos en la página anterior, aquí el verbo to be se utiliza como el auxiliar y el verbo principal cambia gracias a su conjugación con el gerundio :

Por ejemplo:

Negative form / Forma negativa

A diferencia del tiempo presente simple, a la hora de realizar negaciones en presente continuo, no hay necesidad de utilizar el verbo auxiliar , ya que dicho lugar lo sigue teniendo el verbo

Por ejemplo:

En este tipo de oraciones puedes utilizar las contracciones de esta manera:

Interrogative form / Forma interrogativa

En este tipo de preguntas debes iniciar la oración con el verbo auxiliar to be:

Ten en cuenta que en inglés no es necesario abrir la oración con un signo de interrogación. Solo se utiliza el signo de interrogación de cierre:

Si la pregunta es negativa, se debe iniciar la oración de igual manera que con una pregunta afirmativa, pero acompañada del auxiliar negativo. También puedes contraer la oración:

El presente continuo o progresivo es el tiempo verbal que empleamos para expresar acciones que se realizan en el momento en que se mencionan. Veamos:

La principal característica de este tiempo verbal es el uso del gerundio , que en español puede traducirse como los gerundios y .

En este tiempo, el verbo to be se convierte en verbo auxiliar y el , se conjuga con el verbo principal de la acción:

Como ves, aquí el verbo auxiliar no recibe transformación alguna, puesto que el que cambia es el verbo principal.

Construcción del "-ing"

Veamos algunas reglas para conjugar el gerundio con el verbo principal.

Verbos terminados en "- e":

Se suprime la letra y se reemplaza por el gerundio "-ing". Por ejemplo:

Verbos terminados en "-ie":

Cuando un verbo termina de ésta forma, se reemplaza la combinación de vocales , por la consonante , agregando al final el gerundio .

Verbos terminados en "-y":

Esta es la regla más sencilla puesto que lo único que se debe hacer es agregar al final del verbo el gerundio "-ing".

¿En qué casos se doblan las consonantes?

Para los verbos que poseen una sola sílaba o cuyo acento recae en la última sílaba y finalizan en consonante - vocal - consonante, deben doblar su última consonante y agregar "-ing". Por ejemplo:

A medida que incrementes tu vocabulario y conozcas más verbos con estas cualidades, será más fácil recordar cuáles verbos doblan su última consonante y cuáles no.

Algunos verbos en inglés tienen un significado único, mientras que otros son más complejos y pueden utilizarse para expresar muchas cosas diferentes. El verbo "can" pertenece al segundo grupo, y cuenta con una variedad de usos tan amplia que se ha convertido en uno de los verbos en inglés más utilizados.

Con frecuencia, el verbo "can" es considerado uno de los más extraño del idioma inglés. Este verbo forma parte de los llamados " verbos modales ", los cuales son un grupo que se comportan de manera bastante particular, y que tienen usos muy específicos dentro de este idioma. Los verbos modales se usan para expresar necesidad, obligación, o incluso para hablar de la posibilidad de que algo suceda y, lo que es más importante, una de sus características principales es que necesitan de otro verbo para funcionar, característica que comparte el verbo "can", y que, a su vez, lo convierten en uno de los verbos más estudiados en inglés.

Significado del verbo "can"

El verbo "can" tiene dos posibles significados o equivalencias en español. Una es con el verbo "poder" y la otra es el verbo "saber". Para saber cuál significado es el correcto, es necesario estar atentos al contexto de la oración, pues éste aclara el sentido de la oración. En algunas ocasiones, el verbo "can" también puede servir para expresar "ser posible".

Conjugación del verbo "can" en inglés

Presente simple verbo can

Esta es la conjugación en presente del verbo "can", y se utiliza para construir oraciones afirmativas y también preguntas de sí o no y sus respuestas. Se utiliza con todos los sujetos y, a diferencia de otros verbos, su escritura se mantiene igual para todos los pronombres en inglés, incluyendo la tercera persona en singular y las formas en plural.

Forma negativa del verbo "can" en el presente simple

La forma negativa del verbo "can" es "", la cual es la contracción de la palabra "". Esta palabra también puede escribirse como dos palabras separadas, , sin embargo, aunque el significado es el mismo, la forma sin separación es la más común. Igualmente, en el lenguaje informal tanto escrito como hablado se utiliza generalmente la forma "can't",mientras que "cannot" se asocia con lenguaje formal.

Ejemplos con el verbo "can" en presente:

Pasado simple verbo can: could

La forma en pasado del verbo "" es la palabra "", la cual se utiliza principalmente para hacer el pasado simple de este verbo. De la misma manera que la forma en presente, su forma en pasado no cambia con ninguno de los pronombres.

Forma negativa del verbo "can" en pasado simple: couldn´t

El negativo de "" se forma con la palabra "" la cual es una contracción para la expresión "". Igual que en las oraciones afirmativas, esta forma no cambia al usar diferentes pronombres.

Ejemplos con el verbo "can" en el pasado simple:

Preguntas de sí o no con el verbo "can"

Existen dos tipos de respuestas posibles para estas preguntas en inglés: la forma afirmativa y la forma negativa. Las respuestas afirmativas se forman con la palabra "" seguida de una coma, luego el sujeto de la oración, y luego el verbo "" (). La forma negativa es muy parecida, se forma con la palabra "", seguida de una coma, luego el sujeto, y por último el verbo "" en su forma negativa. ().

Futuro verbo can: Be able to

Una de las peculiaridades que tiene el verbo "" en inglés es que no tiene conjugación para formar oraciones en futuro. Si se quiere hacer una oración en futuro con este verbo, entonces se debe utilizar el verbo "". El significado es equivalente, y se puede combinar con la forma "" en futuro, o hacer oraciones más complejas en otros tiempos verbales, pues tiene el verbo "to be" que se puede conjugar en todas sus formas.
