  4. Manipulation of word order and punctuation. • There are three basic chunks that make up a basic sentence: • Subject + Verb + Predicate • Paco + is + tall and organized. • The primary way to form questions is by manipulating (changing up) the word order of these chunks AND changing the punctuation. • ¿VS(sw)P? Or ¿VPS(mw)? • Ie…IsPacotall and organized? • ¿EsPacoalto y ordenado? • **(except with gustar-like verbs)

  5. 2. Tag Questions A tag question is a question just tacked on to a sentence: Subject + Verb + Predicate Paco + is + tall and organized, right? ¿verdad? - right? ¿no? - isn’t it? Ie…Paco is tall and organized, right? Paco es alto y ordenado, ¿verdad?
