Question
(5W+1H)
The
5W+1H productivity formula is a small shorthand that permit us to evaluate a
given task or action from a productivity point of view. This scheme consists of
a number of questions whose answer would provides us with all the necessary
information and data for research or for evaluation of an action.
The 5W+1H Productivity
Formula
The
5W+1H Productivity Formula can be implemented in any sector, subject or issue
involving a task, activity, etc, In this mode is neutral in its implementation
and does not depend on any particular field, principle, discipline or other
conditions.
Its
implementation is based on a simple algorithm, which prescribes the answering a
set of some basic questions. In that context, for any given activity or task
you can start your analysis with 6 basic questions. The formula takes its name
from the initials of the adverb of the 5 first questions (5W) and the initial
letter of the last question (H), thus the name 5W+1H formula. These questions
are:
Who can do it?
What can be done?
When can it be
completed?
Where can be
implemented?
Why we have to
implement it?
How we going measure it
or monitor it?
Providing and answer to
these question, you are able to define more precise the activity or task and
prescribes all its basic “components” (who, how, when, where, etc)

Yes/No
Questions
In
linguistics, a yes–no question, formally known as a polar question, is a
question whose expected answer is either "yes" or "no".
Formally, they present an exclusive disjunction, a pair of alternatives of
which only one is acceptable. In English, such questions can be formed in both
positive and negative forms (e.g. "Will you be here tomorrow?" and "Won't
you be here tomorrow?").
Yes–no
questions are in contrast with non-polar wh-questions, with the five Ws, which
do not necessarily present a range of alternative answers, or necessarily
restrict that range to two alternatives.

Tag
Question
A question tag or tag
question (also known as tail question) is a grammatical structure in which
a declarative statement or an imperative is turned into a
question by adding an interrogative fragment (the
"tag"). For example, in the sentence "You're John, aren't
you?", the statement "You're John" is turned into a question by
the tag "aren't you". The term "question tag" is generally
preferred by British grammarians, while their American counterparts prefer
"tag question".
b) Make your own example of sentences
using those 3 kinds of questions (each kind 5 examples)
- Question (5W+1H)
Example for 5W
1.
What is your name ? My name is jehan
2.
Where are you come from ? I am come
from jakarta
3.
who is that beside you ? she or he
is Maria
4.
why do you study ? because I want to
get good value in the last exam
5.
when do you have the last exam ? I
have the last exam in this last month
Example for 1H
1.
how are you ? I am fine
- Yes/No Questions
The rules
1.
If the main verb of
the sentence is "to be", simply invert the subject and the verb to
be:
Examples:
- They are American. — Are they American?
- They are nice. — Are they nice?
2.
If the sentence
includes a main verb and another or other helping (auxiliary) verb(s), invert
the subject and the (first) helping (auxiliary) verb.
Examples:
- They are visiting Paris. — Are they visiting Paris?
- She has done the
housework. — Has she done the housework
- Nancy has been working all night
long. — Has Nancy been working all night long?
- He will be reading the book. — Will he be reading the book?
3. If the sentence includes a verb which is not the verb "to
be" and doesn't include a helping (auxiliary) verb, the transformation is
more complex.
a.
If the verb is in the present tense, add either do or does and put the main verb in its base form:
- do if the subject is the first person singular, second person singular,
first person plural, second person plural and third person plural (I, you,
we, they)
Examples:
I like apples. — Do you like apples?
They go to a high school. — Do the go to a high school? - does if the subject is the third person singular (he, she, it).
Examples:
Nancy reads a lot. — Does Nancy read a lot?
He hates basketball. — Does he hate basketball?
b.
If the verb is in the past tense, add did and put the main verb in its base
form:
Examples:
- He discovered the truth. — Did he discover the truth?
- She write a nice essay. — Did she write a nice essay?
- They did the homework. — Did they do the homework?
* Tag questions
Tag questions are questions attached or tagged onto
the ending of a declarative statement. They transform a declarative
sentence into an interrogative sentence.
Examples:
§ You live in the city, don’t you?
§ We need to get going now, don’t we?
§ There’s a game on today, isn’t there?
§ You’re coming to the party, aren’t you?
§ He hasn't been running in this weather, has he?
§ She can't speak Arabic, can she?
