  14. Asking Questions • Some questions ask for information. • Who is your friend? • Where is my coat? • For these questions, Latin has “question words” (interrogatives) just like English does. • Ubi: where? When? • Quis: who? • Quid: what? ?

  15. Asking Questions • Quisestpuella? • Who is the girl? • Ubiesttua casa? • Where is your house? • Quidportas? • What are you carrying? ?

  16. Asking Questions • Some questions ask for a yes or no response. • Do you like Slim Jims? • Is that your hat? • For yes/no questions, Latin uses the suffix “-ne” attached to the first word of the sentence.

  17. Asking Questions • The –ne is the Latin version of a question mark. • You’ll know right away the sentence you’re reading is a question! • Estnepuella in casa? Is the girl in the house? • Amasnecrustula? Do you like cookies?

  18. Asking Questions • Sometimes questions are pitched so that you’re expecting a “yes” answer. • I can borrow the car, right? • Don’t you want to go out? • You do like me, don’t you? • Latin uses a special word to make these questions… NONNE. ?

  19. Using “Nonne” • Nonnecrustulaamas? • You like cookies, don’t you? • You do like cookies, right? • Don’t you like cookies? • You like cookies, no? ?

  20. Things to Take Away With You… • Latin uses special words to ask questions. • Some are similar to English: Who? What? When? Where? Quis? Quid? Ubi? Ubi? • For yes/no questions, use –ne. • For questions expecting a “yes” answer, use “nonne.”
