General or polar questions require answering with “yes” (“akh”) or “no” (“nar”). They may be answered by repeating the statement from question in declarative form, especially when question contains double negative. To convert declarative sentence into general question interrogative mood is used. It is formed by adding prefix mar- to the verb. Word order is not changed in general questions.

Alternative or choice questions are similar to general questions but answer requires selecting option(s) presented in question. Answer may be also like “all of them” (“ulûk” or simply “ûk”) or “none of them” (“narash” or just “nar”) or “both” (= “za agh zîg”, lit. “this and that”; = “zîg agh isk”, lit. “that and another”).

Disjunctive or tag questions are formed with declarative sentence, but turned into interrogative by question particle (tag) “mar?” which may be translated into English as “right?”, “isn't it?” etc.

Special or non-polar questions are formed with question words (interrogative pro-forms: pronouns and pro-adverbs) and require a full sentence to answer. Interrogative mood is not used because question words already contain question prefix m(a)-.

Indirect questions are subordinate clauses of declarative sentences. They are formed similar to special questions, but question words are replaced with their relative counterparts. Interrogative mood is not used.
