Hi teachers,
This is the statement, 'It was winter and the weather was cold, so there were not many people in the fields'.
This a possible question, if I'm not mistaken, 'Why there were not many people in the fields?
If yes, why the order is 'there were not'?
The usual order without 'not' is, Why were there ...?
Thanks in advance.
