there are two ways to ask yes/no questions, and one way to ask an
|
|
open-ended one.

<h3 class="title box-title sub-title">~ word ala word</h3>

<div class="box box-top">
|
|
<p>
|
|
to ask yes or no questions, you repeat the first <i>word</i> in the
|
|
preverbs or predicate in a <i>word ala word</i> pattern.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
to answer a question like this you repeat the <i>word</i> for yes, and
|
|
say <i>ala</i> or <i>word ala</i> for no.

you can also form yes/no questions by appending "anu seme" to the end.
|
|
(lesson 12 will cover the word anu)
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
they are answered the same way as <i>word ala word</i> questions, by
|
|
either repeating the word which would be repeated, or saying (word) ala.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
if you're unsure of which word to repeat, you could also just answer
|
|
with a sentence.

<div class="box">

<p>
|
|
open-ended questions are formed by making a normal sentence and putting
|
|
the word <i>seme</i> where the missing information would go.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
if you have phrased the question correctly, the responder should be able
|
|
to replace the word seme with the answer.
