Grammar
Question with an interrogative pronoun
A question with an interrogative pronoun has the same word order as that of a
declarative sentence.
Example:
- 他是谁？Who is he?
- 他是我的学生。He is my student.
The interrogative particle 吗
When the interrogative particle 吗 (ma) is added at the end of a declarative
sentence, it becomes a question.
Example:
- 你认识他。You know him.
- 你认识他吗？Do you know him?
- 他是老师。He is a teacher.
- 他是老师吗？Is he a teacher?
The possesive particle 的
When used attributively to show possession, a noun usually takes the structural
particle 的 (de) after it.
Example:
- 我的老师 my teacher
- 老师的学生teacher's student
