<div class="pg_page_title">Ewe Grammar - How to Ask Questions</div>
Hi Ewe learners! 😊<br>In today's lesson, we will be learning how to ask questions in Ewe. Asking questions is an important part of any language, and it can be tricky to get the hang of. But don't worry, with a bit of practice you'll be asking questions like a pro in no time!

__TOC__

== Types of Questions ==

In Ewe, there are two types of questions: yes/no questions and wh-questions.

=== Yes/No Questions ===
Yes/no questions are questions that can be answered with either "yes" or "no". These questions usually start with a verb, and they often have a rising intonation at the end.

For example:
* Do you speak Ewe?
* Are you learning Ewe?

=== Wh-Questions ===
Wh-questions are questions that start with a question word such as "who", "what", "when", "where", "why", or "how". These questions usually have a falling intonation at the end.

For example:
* Who is your teacher?
* What language are you learning?
* When did you start learning Ewe?
* Where do you study Ewe?
* Why are you learning Ewe?
* How long have you been studying Ewe?

== Question Words ==

In Ewe, the most common question words are:

* Who - ɖe
* What - ɖe
* When - ɖe
* Where - ɖe
* Why - ɖe
* How - ɖe

These words can be used to form wh-questions. For example:

* Who is your teacher? - Ɖe míɖo nye?
* What language are you learning? - Ɖe gbeɖeŋu nye?
* When did you start learning Ewe? - Ɖe dziɖu nye míegbe Ewe?
* Where do you study Ewe? - Ɖe wònye míegbe Ewe?
* Why are you learning Ewe? - Ɖe yeye nye míegbe Ewe?
* How long have you been studying Ewe? - Ɖe dzidzɔ nye míegbe Ewe?

== Summary ==

In this lesson, we have learned about the two types of questions in Ewe: yes/no questions and wh-questions. We have also learned the most common question words in Ewe and how to use them to form wh-questions.
