Forming Questions
1 min read · 128 words
There are two question markers: li, which takes the form of a suffix either separated by a hyphen (môžeš-li) or wholly affixed to the verb (môžešli), which translates to would, and čy, which is the yes-no question marker, which is a separate word from the verb, i.e. čy môžetie
In terms of grammar, it is important to note that there are three usual main orders: (1) the verb before the pronoun, (2) the predicate before the subject, and (3) the pronoun followed by the verb and subject. See the examples below:
Jmátie dvadziáť-jeden rokov?(Are you twenty-one years old?)
Áko jmięnujetie się? (What is your name?)
Jmáš się dobrže? (Are you okay?)
Jmáš dniês čás? (Do you have time today?)
Jmáje Mark dvadziáť-deviäť rokov? (Is Mark twenty-nine years old?)
