    ¿Qué hacemos? What do we do?

    Example \(\PageIndex{1}\)

    ¿Bailas? Do you dance?

    Sí, yo bailo. No, no bailo.

    Thinking about the grammar

    Why are there two no´s here?

    It is the same in English… ¨No, I do not dance.¨

    Exercise \(\PageIndex{1}\)

    Looking at the example above…

    How do you ask a yes or no question in Spanish?

    Answer

    Note that all you do is conjugate the verb correctly for the subject and either write question marks or put the sound of a question in your voice.

    Actividad comunicativa

    Get with a partner and take turns asking each other whether you do some of the different activities listed on the previous page. Make sure to use complete sentences to ask and to answer.
