hurt (v pr))
hurts (v pr3)
hurt (v pt)
hurt (v pp)

Bonjour! I have not studied For over 20 years, and I'm trying to learn the things that I have forgotten, as well as to expand my ability. Could you please answer my question about inverting the subject and the verb when asking questions? I was taught that one would say "Faites-vous vos devoirs?" Or "Fais-tu tes devoirs?" When asking questions. Even asking someone their name I've always known that to be Comment vous appelez-vous? In the formal and Comment t'appelles-tu? In the familiar. Why is this method not followed here in the studies? It has me very confused about what I've learned in highschool and I feel like I'm learning a totally different language. Thank you for letting me ask this question here. I don't know where else to ask it.
