How to Ask Questions in French - 3 Different formats
Want to know something? Whether you're working, traveling, learning, or just trying to learn more about someone, questions are an essential part of any conversation. This lesson will teach you four different ways to ask questions in French.
1. Est-ce que
Est-ce que , literally "is it that," can be placed at the beginning of any affirmative sentence to turn it into a question:
· Est-ce que tu veux voir un film? - Do you want to see a movie?
Place any question words in front of est-ce que :
· Quand est-ce que tu veux partir? - When do you want to leave?
2. Inversion
A more formal way to ask questions is with inversion : invert the conjugated verb and subject pronoun and join them with a hyphen:
· Veux-tu voir un film? - Do you want to see a movie?
Again, place any interrogative words at the beginning of the question:
· Quand veux-tu partir ? - When do you want to leave?
**When using inversion with the third person singular ( il , elle , or on ) and a verb that ends in a vowel, you must add t- between the verb and subject pronoun
Aime-t-il les films ? - Does he like movies?
3. Statement as question
A very simple but informal way to ask yes/no questions is to raise the pitch of your voice while pronouncing any sentence:
Tu veux voir un film ? You want to see a movie?
N'est-ce pas ?
If you're pretty sure the answer to your question is yes, you can just make an affirmative statement and then add n'est-ce pas? to the end. This is also informal:
· Tu veux voir un film, n'est-ce pas ? You want to see a movie, right?
