Special Jeopardy!

Direct Questions

Direct questions are the “normal” questions that we can ask friends, family members, and people who we know well.

Example of a direct question:“Where’s the bathroom?”

“What’s up?”

Indirect Questions (p. 35)

Indirect questions are a little more formal and polite.

We use them when talking to a person we don’t know very well, or in professional situations, and

their form is a little different.

Example of an indirect question:“Could you tell me where the bathroom is?”

“How are you today?”

Difference: Direct vs. Indirect

DirectBegins with:

• Who• What • Where• When** How **

IndirectPhrases:

• Could you tell me…• Do you know…• I was wondering…• Do you have any idea…• I’d like to know…• Would it be possible…• Is there any chance…

In general: Any question which does not start with “Wh” is indirect

Brainstorm 10 “Wh” questions

Lets turn some into indirect questionsYou do the rest.

Asking for Directions:(Direct vs. Indirect)

• Excuse me,…..“Can you tell me how to find the train station?”

or“Can you tell me where the train station is?”

Vs. “Where’s the train station”
