• Subject Questions: The lesson explains that in subject questions, the question word (who, what, which) acts as the subject of the verb. The word order is the same as in an affirmative statement, and auxiliary verbs (do, does, did) are not needed in present and past simple tenses. Examples like 'Who called the police?' and 'What happened?' are provided.
• Object Questions: The lesson clarifies that in object questions, the question word is not the subject of the verb. The word order differs from affirmative statements, and auxiliary verbs (do, does, did) are required in present and past simple tenses. Examples like 'What did they take?' and 'When did it happen?' illustrate this point.
• Question Word Restrictions: The lesson states you cannot form subject questions with where, when, why or how. Example questions, “Where do you live?” and “When did you start work?” were provided in this lesson.
