Ex :Est-ce que tu as bien dorm? (Did you sleep well?)

6] Est-ce qu'ils sont là ?

;)
1.) Il ne parle pas espagnol.
To negate the statement "Il parle espagnol," you can simply add the word "ne" before the verb and "pas" after it. Therefore, "Il parle espagnol" becomes "Il ne parle pas espagnol."
2.) Je n'étudie pas.
To negate the statement "J'étudie," you can similarly add "ne" before the verb and "pas" after it. Thus, "J'étudie" becomes "Je n'étudie pas."
To change the following statements into questions using inversion:
1.) Jouez-vous au foot?
To turn the statement "Vous jouez au foot" into a question using inversion, you need to switch the subject "vous" and the verb "jouez." This results in "Jouez-vous au foot?"
2.) Est-ce que Marie est ici?
To change the statement "Marie est ici" into a question using the "est-ce que" technique, you simply add "est-ce que" at the beginning of the sentence. The resulting question is "Est-ce que Marie est ici?"
To rewrite the sentence "Est-ce qu'il travaille?" using inversion instead:
Travaille-t-il?
To rewrite the sentence using inversion, you need to place the subject "il" after the verb "travaille" and add a hyphen between them. Thus, "Est-ce qu'il travaille?" becomes "Travaille-t-il?"
To rewrite the following sentences using the "est-ce que" technique instead of inversion:
1.) Est-ce qu'ils sont là?
To use the "est-ce que" technique, you need to add "est-ce que" at the beginning of the sentence. Hence, "Sont-ils là?" becomes "Est-ce qu'ils sont là?"
2.) Comment est-ce que Jean danse?
To use the "est-ce que" technique, you need to add "est-ce que" at the beginning of the sentence. Thus, "Comment Jean danse-t-il?" is rewritten as "Comment est-ce que Jean danse?"
