In English (U.S.) especially, you put a question mark at the end of a written question.
If the sentence asks a question or a query, then a question mark is put after the entire string of words is finished.
This means that you are expecting an answer from the sentence that is asking a question or questions. Ex: How many eggs do you want?
It can also mean that when you see a question, you can also think about it and answer it in your head (like a self-help question). Ex: Do you think positive thoughts to begin your day?
So saying, "How are you?" needs the question mark (?) afterwards because you are asking a question.
Typically you can spot a question if the sentence starts with the five (5) W's:
- Who
- What
- Which
- Where
- Why
Another word that typically tells you that a question is coming in the sentence is when the sentence starts with the word, 'how'. (See examples way above).
So examples for the above 5 W's could be:
Who was the first actress ever known?
What is the best breakfast to eat?
Which band do you like the most?
Where are my socks?
Why do people get sad?
[This is for the English language though. Other languages can have question marks at the beginning of the sentence AND at the end.]
