Yes/no questions with 吗

Structure Affirmative sentence + 吗?

The easiest way to ask: take a normal statement and add 吗 (ma) at the end. 你是学生 → 你是学生吗? The word order does not change. 吗 is only for yes/no questions; it does NOT combine with question words like 什么 or 谁 (those already ask on their own).

Examples

  • hǎoma

    How are you?

  • shìxuéshēngma

    Are you a student?

  • zàijiāma

    Is he home?
