Those are all correct, but 'Is he working now?' may be more appropriate. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

Hi Ralf, Here is the list of the sample questions: 1. Do you have your credit card? 2. Does he drink coffee? 3. Do you know I angry about your behaviour? 4. Does she know her limit of playing the video game? 5. Do I need to tolerate his words? 6. Do I feel hurt about the event?
However, after asking the questions. How do I answer a proper question? Refer to sample no 1 : Do you have your credit card? - is this correct to answer: Yes, I did.
Note: I always confuse with answered the question in normal conversation. I would mix up with simple and past tense. Some people would say this is a silly grammar mistake. How would I differentiate? Please advice. Your reply is much appreciated. Thanks.
cheers, Mei |

3. Do you know that I am angry about your behaviour? 4. Does she know her limit for playing the video game?
Do you ... Yes, I do/No, I don't. Does he... Yes, he does/No, he doesn't. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

You need to punctuate all your questions:
Do you play tennis? Does he take a break? Are they in the pool? _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

Hi. Here are some simple questions.
Do you like chocolate cake? Do I make a mistake in this sentence? Do they love their grandparents? Does she often visit her grandma? Doesn't he work today? Do we go to the local plaza? Do you eat all the food on your plate? Do these people striking? Does she like singing in front of spectators? |

Csaabaa I'm here quite often ;-)

Have I made a mistake in this sentence? - past Am I making a mistake in this sentence? - present ('Do' is not the most natural verb choice)
Isn't he working today? (Again, 'do' is not the best verb.)
Are we going to the local plaza? Are you eating all the food on your plate? Are these people striking?
('to be' rather than 'to do') _________________ Cheers m' dears! |

Thank you. You're absolutely right. Shame on me.
Here are some new sentences:
Does she like flowers? Does your mother like cooking? Does friend of yours smoke cigarettes every day? Do you have a cup of coffee at the morning? |

Just a couple of minor points there:
'friend' needs an article or similar: Does that friend of yours...
'In the morning', not 'at the morning'.
(and there's no shame in making mistakes. Mistakes are great teachers.) _________________ Cheers m' dears! |
