Explicamelo por que el intercambio de palabras no me aclaro. -Because the order in a question is: TO BE(Are) + SUBJECT(these) +.....? 2) Otra duda que tengo es el significado de "QUE" si es what por que en la frase ¡Que baratos¡ se escribe con that´s "that´s cheap" (OR “How cheap!”) que significado tiene la palabra 'that´s'? - It can be dangerous to try to translate directly from Spanish to English. In this example, the translation of ¡Qué barato! is "That's cheap!" or "How cheap!". 3) Otra duda de las que tengo es por que cuando le preguntas a alguien tienes que poner al principio "do you". Por ejemplo - "Do you work in an office?" que significado tienen las palabras "do you"? - "Do you..." is used to indicate the question form in present simple.
