In another section, you encounter two other ways of forming questions: using rising intonation and est-ce que.
 

Another way to ask a question is to invert the subject and the verb, which you have already seen in the following type questions:
 

When there is only a pronoun instead of a noun, you invert the verb and the pronoun. In written French you need to link the verb and its pronoun with a hyphen:
 

When a third person singular form ends with a vowel (mainly with –er verbs), a –t– is added between the verb and the pronoun. This is to facilitate pronunciation:
 

For pronominal verbs used in inversion questions, the subject pronoun is inverted, but the reflexive pronoun stays in initial position:
 

Of the three forms you have now learned, rising intonation and inversion are somewhat more common than using est-ce que.

Examples of Inversion Questions

• Madame l'agent? Comment trouve-t-on un taxi dans cette ville?
• Avez-vous un plan de métro?
