Different ways of posing a yes / no question
So it occurs to me there are different ways to ask for confirmation. For example I might day “ were you a soldier before “ or I could say “ you were a soldier before, right?” They have a slightly different nuance. How should we incorporate this into our 123 matrix? Confirmation question (like English “…right?”) أنتَ كنتَ جنديًا من قبل، أليس كذلك؟ You were a soldier before, right? Or more informal: كنتَ جندي قبل… صح؟ You were a soldier before… right? 3 — Negation لم تكن جنديًا من قبل. You weren’t a soldier before
