Key learning points
- Spanish statements become questions by raising tone of voice at the end.
- Spanish uses two question marks; the one at the front of the question is upside down.
- When an adjective ends in -e or -z it can describe a female and male person or animal; it does not change.
- Many cities in Spanish-speaking countries contain [a] [o] [u]
Keywords
Dónde - question word for where?
Cómo - question word for how?
Estoy - part of the verb estar, to be, being, meaning I am
Estás - part of the verb estar, to be, being, meaning you are
Common misconception
Questions in English and Spanish are written in the same way.
Questions in Spanish need an upside-down (inverted) question mark at the begininng and a regular question mark at the end. This is because the verb and person do not swap in Spanish questions, as they do in English.
