How to Giving Personal Information
Answers
Answer:
Sometimes people ask you for personal details, such as name, address and date of birth. Here are some typical questions and ways you can answer.
Question words
Who (asks for a name or person)
Whose (asks about the owner)
Why (asks for a reason)
Where (asks for a place)
What (asks about a thing or a concept)
Which (asks about a thing)
When (asks for a time)
How (asks about the way something happens)
(Also “how much” / “how many” to ask about quantity; “how long” to ask about duration; “how often” to ask about frequency.)
Remember the word order of questions:
(1. Question word – optional)
2. Auxiliary do / does; verb to be
3. Subject
4. Verb + complement
(1)Where (2)do (2)you (4)live?
(1)What (2)is (3)your name?
(2)Do (3)you (4)like reading?
If there is no question word, the question starts with the auxiliary. The answer to a question like this is “yes” or “no”.
