One needs to be able to command the following questions and expressions.

Note that the honorific ending (~(으)세요) is used in question if the question is about the listener because the speaker respects him or her. In response, however, the Polite Ending (~어요/아요) should be used because it is about the speaker himself/herself and you should not honor yourself.
