<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>A question is a type of sentence that seeks answers. It is also called an asking sentence.&nbsp;</li><li>A question always ends in a question mark(?).&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>A question can begin with the WH question words (What, Who, When, Where, Why and How.)&nbsp;</li><li>A question can also be formed, by changing the order of the sentence, such as by placing the verb at the beginning of the sentence.&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Questions starting with WH question words</h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Why did Joe get hurt?&nbsp;</li><li>Who is Joe?&nbsp;</li><li>Where is Joe?&nbsp;</li><li>What is Joe doing?&nbsp;</li><li>When is Joe coming?&nbsp;</li><li>How is Joe doing?&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Questions which can be formed by changing the order of sentence</h2>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rhetorical Questions&nbsp;</h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>It is a question that someone asks without expecting an answer.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>It could be because there is no answer, or it could be because there is no obviousanswer.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Their uses are many.&nbsp;</li></ul>



<p>1. Sometimes these questions are asked to focus on a point. The answer to such a question is really obvious. So, we use it to stress the point.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Why does it have to rain now?&nbsp;</li></ul>



<p>2. Sometimes it is used to persuade.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>What do you want in life?&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>



<p>3. Sometimes it is used for literary effect.&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>What a night?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Rhetorical Questions – Creating effect&nbsp;</h3>



<p>The reason is, when we use rhetorical question, it can make the listener/reader think really hard.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>What’s in a name?&nbsp;</li><li>Can spring be far behind? If winter comes.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul>
