Summary

Bai edo ez galderek bai edo ez erantzunak bakarrik izan ditzakete.

Bai edo ez galderen egitura hurrengoa da: Aditz laguntzailea edo modala gehi subjektua eta substantiboa edo aditza (esaldia galdera marka batekin amaitzen da).

Erantzun laburren egitura hurrengoa da: Bai edo ez [yes or no] gehi koma eta subjektua eta aditz laguntzailea edo modala ondoren (galderaren berdina).

Adibidez:
— “Did you go to school yesterday? – Yes, I did.” =  Bai/ez galderak zehar galderak ere deitzen dira, eta galdera to do aditz laguntzailearekin galdetu denez, erantzun laburrak hau izango du.
♦ “Whose cat is this?” = Wh- galderak  galdera zuzenak [open questions] deitzen dira erantzun infinitoak eduki ditzaketelako.

OHARRA: Bai edo ez galderak eratzeko aditz laguntzailea (be, have, do) edo modala (can, could, would…) bakarrik erabili daiteke.

For better understanding how to create a yes or no question you can see auxiliary verb (be/have…) and modal verb (can/could/would…).

In English, besides yes or no questions called closed questions, we also have wh-questions called open questions.
