Question

[senri720]

So i'm confused about something, "Usted come pan" means "Do you eat bread?" as a question, but from what i understand Usted is just the formal version of Tu, so why is it not "You eat bread" the statement? Like how do you differentiate between a question and a statement? Is it just a matter of context?

In spoken language, by intonation: questions have a rising intonation, just like English ("Bread." vs "Bread?" vs "Bread!"). In written language, by interrogative marks: "¿Usted come pan?".

In writing/reading: question marks
In speaking/listening: tone, facial expressions, or context
