Explanation:

In Spanish, you can form questions using different methods like intonation, question tags, and inversion.

To ask a question using intonation, simply change the tone of your voice to denote a question and add a question mark when writing it.

Question tags are added at the end of a statement to turn it into a question, such as adding "¿verdad?" or "¿no es cierto?"

Inversion involves switching the positions of the subject and verb in a sentence to form a question.
