ASKING QUESTIONS IN ENGLISH

Now, here's a video where you can easily revise how to make questions in English.
Remember the formula:

(QWord) + Auxilary Verb + Subject + Main Verb +.... + (preposition)?
                    BE.....................................+-ing (continuous tenses)
                         .....................................+past participle (passive)
                    DO.....................................+ infinitive without TO (simple tenses)
                    HAVE................................ got (possession present)
                              ...............................+ past participle (perfect tenses)
                    Modals (CAN, MUST, WILL, MAY...) + infinitive without TO
                    

The video distinguishes between:
a) Questions with the verb TO BE
b) Questions with MODAL VERBS (CAN, MAY, SHALL, MUST...)
c) Tenses where you can see the auxiliary (Continuous [BE] & Perfect Tenses [HAVE])
d) Tenses where you can't see the auxiliary (Present [DO/-ES] & Past Simple [DID])

So here's the video: QUESTIONS:
