Editing Interrogative (section)

===Inflection===
Certain languages mark interrogative sentences by using a particular [[inflection]] of the verb (this may be described as an interrogative [[grammatical mood|mood]] of the verb). Languages with some degree of this feature include [[Irish language|Irish]], [[Scottish Gaelic]], [[Greenlandic language|Greenlandic]], [[Nenets languages|Nenets]], [[Central Alaskan Yup'ik language|Central Alaskan Yup'ik]], [[Turkish language|Turkish]], [[Finnish language|Finnish]], [[Korean language|Korean]] and [[Venetian language|Venetian]].

In most varieties of [[Venetian language|Venetian]], interrogative verb endings have developed out of what was originally a subject [[pronoun]], placed after the verb in questions by way of inversion (see following section). For example, Old Venetian {{lang|vec|magnè-vu?}} ("do you eat?", formed by inversion from {{lang|vec|vu magnè}} "you eat") has developed into the modern {{lang|vec|magnet'''o'''?}} or {{lang|vec|magnè'''u'''?}}. This form can now also be used with [[null-subject language|overt subjects]]: {{lang|vec|Voaltri magnèo co mi?}} ("do you eat with me?", literally "you eat-you with me?").

In [[Turkish language|Turkish]], the verb takes the interrogative particle {{lang|tr|mı}} (also {{lang|tr|mi, mu, mü}} according to the last vowel of the word – see [[vowel harmony]]), with other personal or verbal suffixes following after that particle:
* {{lang|tr|Geliyorum.}} ("I am coming.") → {{lang|tr|Geliyor muyum?}} ("Am I coming?")
* {{lang|tr|Geliyordum.}} ("I was coming.") → {{lang|tr|Geliyor muydum?}} ("Was I coming?")
* {{lang|tr|Geldim.}} ("I came.") → {{lang|tr|Geldim mi?}} ("Did I come?")
* {{lang|tr|Evlisin.}} ("You are married.") → {{lang|tr|Evli misin?}} ("Are you married?")

In [[Central Alaskan Yup'ik language|Central Alaskan Yup'ik]], verbs are conjugated in what is called the interrogative mood if one wishes to pose a content question:
* {{lang|esu|Taiciquten.}} ("You sg. will come.") → {{lang|esu|Qaku taiciqsit?}} ("When (future) will you come?)
* {{lang|esu|Qimugta ner'uq neqmek.}} ("The dog is eating some fish.") → {{lang|esu|Camek ner'a qimugta?}} ("What is the dog eating?)

Yes/no questions in Yup'ik, however, are formed by attaching the enclitic {{lang|esu|-qaa}} to the end of the first word of the sentence, which is what is being questioned:
* {{lang|esu|Taiciquten-qaa?}} ("Will you come?")
* {{lang|esu|Qimugta-qaa ner'uq neqmek?}} ("Is the dog eating some fish?")

Further details on verb inflection can be found in the articles on the languages listed above (or their grammars).
