8 Wh - question

Специальный вопрос

↑ Question

Специальный вопрос - это вопрос, который начинается с вопросительного слова (Interrogative pronouns).

1) образование специального вопроса.

а) Порядок слов в специальных вопросах (кроме вопросов к подлежащему) таков: wh- word + be/ have/mod/v aux + subj... В начале предложения стоит вопросительное слово; после него слова идут в таком же порядке, как и при образовании общего вопроса (см. Yes-No question).

When will she come again? — Когда она придет снова?

What do you think of him? — Что ты о нем думаешь?

б) В вопросе к подлежащему предложения на месте подлежащего (т.е. в начале предложения) стоит вопросительное слово; порядок остальных членов предложения такой же, как в повествовательном предложении (см. Sentence: word order).

Who broke the cup? — Кто разбил чашку?

What is in his pocket, my precious? — Что у него в кармашке, моя прелесть?

в) Если предложение содержит глагол с предлогом ( Preposition), то, как правило, предлог ставится в абсолютный конец вопроса. В формальной речи предлог может находиться перед вопросительным словом.

How on earth can I get these shoes on? — Как это я могу надеть эти туфли?

Where did you get this dress from? — Откуда у тебя это платье?

In which hall will the recital be given? (форм.) — В каком зале будет происходить декламация?

2) отрицательная форма вопроса.

Специальный вопрос с отрицанием начинается с вопросительного слова; далее порядок слов такой же, как в общем вопросе с отрицанием (см. образование вопроса с отрицанием в Negative question).

Why do you not like Mary? — Почему тебе не нравится Мэри?

Why haven't you told me you're leaving? — Почему ты не сказал мне, что уезжаешь?

3) краткая форма.

Вопрос (особенно в разговорной речи) может сокращаться до вопросительного слова (например, если требуется переспросить или уточнить). Предлог ставится чаще после вопросительного слова, как и при полном вопросе.

I'll be off on holiday. - Where to? — Я уеду на каникулы. - Куда?

I need this paper. - What for? — Мне нужна эта бумага. - Для чего?

12 Sentence: word order

Порядок слов в повествовательном предложении

↑ Word order

1) Нормальный порядок слов в повествовательном предложении таков: Подлежащее (Subject) + Сказуемое (Predicate).

The child was sleeping. — Ребенок спал (child - подлежащее, was sleeping - сказуемое).

2) В случае, если глагол имеет дополнение (Object), оно обычно следует за глаголом: Подлежащее + Сказуемое + Дополнение.

I can see the morning star. — Я вижу утреннюю звезду ( the morning star - дополнение)

3) Если глагол имеет два дополнения: прямое (Direct object) и непрямое (Indirect object), то непрямое дополнение находится перед прямым, то есть порядок слов следующий: Подлежащее + Сказуемое + Непрямое дополнение + Прямое дополнение.

I will leave him a note. — Я оставлю ему записку (him - непрямое дополнение, a note - прямое дополнение).

4)

а) Комплемент ( Complement), присоединяемый к глаголу, не имеющему дополнения, ставится после глагола: Подлежащее + Сказуемое + Комплемент.

He is sick. — Он болен ( sick - комплемент).

б) Если глагол имеет дополнение, то комплемент следует за дополнением: Подлежащее + Сказуемое + Дополнение + Комплемент.

I thought him very sly. — Я считал его очень хитрым.(him - дополнение, very sly - комплемент).

5) Обстоятельство может принимать в предложении различные позиции; подробнее о позиции обстоятельства см. Adverbial: position.

6) Все вышеперечисленные правила действуют в повествовательном предложении при нормальном порядке слов. Порядок слов меняется при образовании вопроса (см. Question) и отрицания (Negative sentence); об измененном порядке слов в повествовательных предложениях см. Inversion.
