Basic questions :-

Consider sentences  :-

Do you go ?

Did he go ?

Will she speak ?

Was he dancing

These are all basic questions in English. In Gujarati basic questions can be formed by adding શું (shuM).

i.e. by saying શું (shuM) before an statement; it will be converted to question. And we say it in a question tone. 

He goes -> Does he go ?

એ જાયે છે  (e jAye Che)  -> શું એ જાયે છે  ? (shuM e jAye Che) 

She went -> did she go ?

તે ગઈ  (te gaI) -> શું તે ગઈ  ? (shuM te gaI)

They will go -> will they go ?

તેઓ જશે   (teo jashe ) -> શું તેઓ જશે  ? (shuM teo jashe )

Such questions can also be asked buy using same sentence but just changing tone. In English as well we do it some times.
e.g You are coming -> You coming ??

તું આવીશ  (tuM AvIsh)  -> તું આવીશ ? (tuM AvIsh)

You told him secret --> You told him secret ?

તેં એને રહસ્ય કહ્યું  (teM ene rahasy kahyuM)  -> તેં એને રહસ્ય કહ્યું ? (teM ene rahasy kahyuM)
