#interrogative mood

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

In most varieties of 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 magnè-vu? ("do you eat?", formed by inversion from vu magnè "you eat") has developed into the modern magneto? or magnèu?. This form can now also be used with overt subjects: Voaltri magnèo co mi? ("do you eat with me?", literally "you eat-you with me?").

In Turkish, the verb takes the interrogative particle mı (also mi, mu, mü according to the last vowel of the word – see vowel harmony), with other personal or verbal suffixes following after that particle:

Geliyorum. ("I am coming.") → Geliyor muyum? ("Am I coming?")

Geliyordum. ("I was coming.") → Geliyor muydum? ("Was I coming?")

Geldim. ("I came.") → Geldim mi? ("Did I come?")

When addressing someone do you stand with your back straight, eyes locked, feet shoulder width apart, hands behind your back or back slouched, arms crossed, eyes shifting any where but up? Did you decide you were just going to do it your way? What do you do to someone who can’t listen to others? Do we ignore them, does that teach them their lesson? What is your concept of time? What is the difference between present perfect and future imperfect? Do you know the definition of color in relation to light? Are you going back to the car? Would you say it’s about something missing or something bouncing back? Have you ever considered the roles of colors? What do you feel when you see brown? Blue? Green? Yellow? Red?  When going back to the car do you make one trip and bring in all possible essentials or do you just make little mini trips when a need for something comes into play? Black? Can you swirl your fingers in a hypnotizing manner? Can you train a dog? Have you felt funky? Have you smelled it? Would you rather be full of awe or would you be complacent with some awe? Do you close your eyes or keep them open when you’re scared? Do you want that bag of chips? Is darkness not scary? Are monster faces scary? When is the last time you cried? When is the last time you called your mom? Your dad? Your family? Your Family? Do we need a light? Do you dance? Do you want to be my friend? What if a monster’s face could turn into an angel’s face? What if they were the same? Would that terrify you? Do you shake it out? Do you bop your head? Do you want to make a fire? When bopping your head, if you do, do you get dizzy or do you still maintain the same line of sight? Have you ever had a revelation? How about a revolution? Are they related? Are we? Who are you? Have you ever tried to distract yourself?  Can you find the app for that? What did you find when you did that? Are you going to do it again? Did you have fun? Are you laughing at me? Are you laughing with me? Are you laughing at all? Are you going to stop? Do you try to battle the elements while living in nature? If so, why? If no, why not? Are you a shifty eyed sonofabitch? Do you read? Are you my friend? Did I already ask that? Is that important? Have you ever seen those umbrella hats? Do you care?

Do you jam? Do you break it down? Do you lose yourself to funk? Do you steep like tea? Do you dirty wind? Do you see the value in getting lost? Do you stinky leg? Do you do you work? Do you twerk? Do you disassemble? Does that scare you? Am I frightening you? Are you uncomfortable? Do you think there is a relation between distraction and fire? Do you look uncomfortable? Can you see what you look like? How long do you stare in the mirror? Could you do it all day? Do you? Have you ever gone camping? Is it easier to put up the tent or break down the tent? Have you ever heard fire referred to as “the best goddamn television show I’ve ever seen? How’d you sleep in that tent? Were you well rested or were you well disturbed? What is the difference between private and personal? Is there one? If there is, can you feel it? Do you feel me? Do you feel? If you are about to graduate, do you know what you are doing after? Do you? Do? Do you dance? Do you sway? If our bodies are made up of seventy percent water… does that make us water monsters or water angels? Are you fluid? Did you crystalize? Do you rock? Are you a light-worker? Are you a people person? Can you not be? What time is it? How long did that feel? How long has the day been? Can I have a moment of your time? Would you consider that a gift? Are you privileged? Do you feel it? Do you feel? Do you? Do?

If I said to you, "I want to return to 1940 and have a big coupe with big running boards and drive it drunkenly and carefully along dirt roads never causing harm except for frightening chickens out of the road, and I want you standing out there on the running board saying Slow down, or Let me in, and laughing, but I don't stop, because of course you don't mean it, you think as I do that big 1940s coupe and careful drunken driving and one party outside the car and one inside and both laughing and chickens spraying unhurt into ditches is what life was then, is what life was about before it became ruined by us and all our crap," and if I said to you, "I have an actual goddamned time machine, I am not kidding, we can get in the coupe inside thirty seconds if we take off our clothes and push the red button underneath that computer over there, come on, strip, get ready"--would you get ready to go with me, and go? Would you ask a lot of questions? Or would you just say, "Shut up and push the button"?
