Object or subject questions in English grammar?

Hello again. This is Ian with another "English Video for You" So how are you today? I hope you are well I'm feeling very well, thank you. OK. In this video I'm going to explain the difference between object questions and subject questions I'm going to show you what they are and how and why we use them. OK? .... right let's get started. OK. Now... the first thing is to remind you of the "standard" questions in English The standard question in English uses .. an auxiliary; a subject ... and a principle verb and the verb "to be" does the inversion of the subject and the verb: Are you happy? -> You are happy It is a table. -> Is it a table? The other verb forms, all the other verb forms should have these 3 elements Remember! I told you: Auxiliary; subject; principle verb So we can say: Where do you live? Have you seen the new film by Spielberg? It doesn't matter: Present Simple, Present Continuous, Past Simple, Past Continuous, Present Perfect etc They use this form BUT! There are the 3 elements I told you. We need the three 3 elements in the correct order or we CANNOT use this system. If we don't have the SUBJECT, we can't use this system So, when we want to know WHO [or what] was doing something, who did something, who is going to do something then we don't know the subject, so this will be the "SUBJECT question" Let me give you a very clear example: Let's imagine (uuum) OK ... we have three teachers We have John, we have Marie and we have Anna John is an English teacher, he teaches English Marie is a French teacher, she teaches French and Anna is a Spanish teacher she teaches Spanish OK Let's think about John. John teaches one of the other two people and also he learns one of the other two languages. Let's ask questions to find out these things So, John is a teacher. Who (WHO) does John teach? Does he teach Marie? or does he teach Anna? Well the answer is: he teaches Marie Notice the question: Who does John teach? John is a teacher, we know the SUBJECT of the verb. [it's John] Now ... I told you that John also learns another language Does he learn French from Marie? or does he learn Spanish from Anna? and the answer comes when we ask a question So the question is: Who teaches John? .................................... Anna teaches John So when we ask a SUBJECT question we don't know if it is Anna or Marie or Uncle Bob. So then we have to say: "Who teaches John?" We use a normal affirmative verb form ... in this case: in the Present Simple Who teaches John? and the answer is, Anna teaches John .... OK same situation with Marie Marie teaches somebody and she learns something Who does Marie teach? John? Anna? or both? Well .... Marie teaches John uuh! You didn't know that, did you? and Marie teaches Anna.
