Yes/No questions and short answers.

Quiz

Saying ‘Yes, I do. / No, I don’t’ in English is more polite than just saying ‘Yes. / No.’ That’s why short answers are very commonly used.

To form the short answer, you use the first word from the question. (This is either an auxiliary verb or a form of ‘be’.)

Use the long form (he does) in affirmative answers (yes).

Use the short form (he doesn’t) in negative answers (no).
