Grammar Tips:

In Italian there are 4 ways of asking a question to get a yes or no answer, and they are the following:

-Verb : Unlike English, the auxiliaries do and does are not used. Ha del tempo libero? (Does she/he have free time?)

-Pronoun + verb: Only the intonation makes the sentence interrogative: Lei/lui ha del tempo libero? (Does she/he have free time?)

-Verb +...+ pronoun. The pronoun goes last Ha del tempo libero lei/lui? (Does she have free time?)

-Finally you can also make a question by adding a tag question to the end of a statement. Lei ha del tempo libero, vero/non è vero?
