Questions & Answers about Fungerar din mobil nu?

Why is it Fungerar din mobil nu? and not Din mobil fungerar nu?

Both are possible, but they have different sentence types:

• Fungerar din mobil nu? = a yes/no question. Swedish often forms yes/no questions by putting the verb first (V1 word order).
• Din mobil fungerar nu. = a statement (“Your phone works now.”).

So the verb-first order is the main clue that it’s a question.
