Untuk pertanyaan dalam bentuk Present Tense, maka menggunakan kata kerja bantu Do atau Does, dan untuk bentuk Past tense, maka menggunakan kata bantu Did. 

Penggunaan nama diri seperti Mira, Alia, Farah, Numa, the teachers, the boys, the girls, maka kata- kata tersebut dapat menggunakan kata Kata Ganti Orang (he, she, it, they) sebagai subject dan kata ganti him, her, it atau them sebagai objek dalam jawaban.
