How many people are there in your family为什么要加are there.不加行吗
问题描述：
How many people are there in your family为什么要加are there.不加行吗
答
不行啊,因为特殊疑问句的构成是 特殊疑问词加一般疑问句
而在这个句子中特殊疑问词是how many,因为提问到的是主语的定语,所以要把主语一起放于句首,再接there be句型的一般疑问句,开头为be there,所以are there不能去掉
全句还原回去就变成there are (how many)people in our family.
一般疑问句为Are there (how many)people in your family?
