BAHASA INGGRIS

Questions

Ada dua bentuk questions (pertanyaan) yaitu:

A. Yes/No questions

B. Information questions (Wh-questions dan How)

A. Yes/no questions

Adalah pertanyaan yang menuntut jawaban yes atau no. Jenis pertanyaan ini diawali dengan auxiliary (is, am, are, was, were, do, does, did, have, has, had, can, may, must, should shall, will, could, atau would).

Contoh:

1. Do you love me?

Yes, I do/No, I don’t

2. Are you sleepy?

Yes, I am?No, I am not.

3. Can they climb the wall?

Yes, they can?No, yhey can’t.

4. Will you help me?

Yes, I will/No, I will not.

Yes/no questions dapat kita bagi menjadi positive dan negative yes/no questions.

1. Positive yes/no questions.

Pola-pola kalimat tanya yang telah diberikan pada pembahasan tiap tenses secara umum dapat diringkas menjadi:

Auxiliary Be Do/does/did

+ subject + verb . . .

Contoh:

1. Have you finished doing your homework?
2. Will you go to watch a movie with me tonight?
3. Is she pretty?
4. Does he always go to school on foot?
5. Did you visit your parents during holiday?

Note: Kesalahan biasanya terjadi pada kalimat yang menggunakan simple present tense dan past tense. Kesalahan ini umumnya karena lupa mengubah verb1+(s/es) dan verb2 menjadi verb1.

• INCORRECT: Does she often practices her English?
• CORRECT : Does she often practice her English? Yes, she does.

• INCORRECT: Did you loved her?
• CORRECT : Did you love her? Yes, I did.

Untuk tensis yang lainnya biasanya jarang tejadi kesalahan karena bentuk verb-nya tidak berubah. Silakan baca kembali pola yes/no question untuk 16 Tensis dalam Bahasa Inggris. Atau click link tensis yang ingin anda review di bagian comment tulisan ini.

2.. Negative yes/no questions

Pola yang sangat formal untuk negative yes/no questions adalah NOT diletakkan setelah subject.

Auxiliary Be Do/does/did

+ subject + NOT + verb . . .

Tapi, pola di atas sangat jarang digunakan dibandingkan dengan pola berikut:

Auxiliary Be Do/does/did

NOT

+ subject + verb . . .

Note: NOT pada umumnya dikontraksi dengan auxiliary/be/do/does/did (i.e. can’t, won’t, isn’t, don’t, hasn’t, etc).

Kapan kita menggunakan negatif yes/no questions? Negative yes/no questions umumnya digunakan:

2. Aren’t you making spaghetti? (Bukankah kamu sedang masak spaghetti?)
