We use two structures to form questions in the present simple tense: yes/no questions and wh- questions. Yes/no questions are formed using auxiliary verbs like "do" or "does" before the main verb. Wh- questions are formed using interrogative words like what, where, when before the main verb. Both question structures invert the subject and verb compared to statement forms.
