 == Commands and Questions ==
+===Commands===
+Commands are formed with the 'subject' of ''a'' followed by the verb in its basic form. The verb can be negated as
+well. (If needed, the a sound is elongated to distinguish it from a following vowel)
+''a oodit''<br />
+IMP run<br />
+"Run!"
+''
+a zroodit''<br />
+IMP NEG-run<br />
+"Don't run!"
+===Questions===
+====Yes-No questions====
+Yes-no questions are formed by starting the sentence with the question marker ''hlai'', followed by the verb, then
+subject and object if applicable.
+''hlai agen leed ofoos ga''<br />
+QUES see I cow-OBJ that<br />
+"Do you see that cow?"
+====Question words====
+In a sentence that is more complex than a yes or no, question words and phrases are used.
+{|
+|-
+| '''Who''' || ''hlendan''
+|-
+| '''Who (clique)''' || ''hleed''
+|-
+| '''What''' || ''hlaas''
+|-
+| '''When''' || ''hlaitleste''
+|-
+| '''Where''' || ''hlaipa''
+|-
+| '''Why''' || ''hlaifelde''
+|-
+| '''How''' || ''otlaihlai''
+|-
+| '''How many''' || ''hlaibren''
+|}
+The question word for the information being used is put into the sentence where the appropriate word would
+go.
+''sloon aeram hlendan''<br />
+you COP who/clique<br />
