What are hard-to-find subjects in questions?
In interrogative sentences, the subject is usually not followed by a verb. To find the subject, rearrange the question into a declarative statement, and then look for your subject.
Some examples of hard-to-find subjects in questions would be the following:
When did you finish your homework? → You did finish your homework when.
May I go to the restroom? → I may go to the restroom.
Are these notes on the ground yours? → These notes on the ground are yours.
Has Fred been to the art museum? → Fred has been to the art museum.
Be sure to review the lesson on hard-to-find subjects with “here” and “there” at the beginning of a sentence as well!
