? Should the question mark not come before the question...

[100%]

so that you know it is a question before you read the question.

espanish do this

But of course also, after the question, in case anyone forget,- that it is a question? ?Therefore put a questionmark after the question?

?agreed?

¿How about having the upside-down question mark before the question then normal one after?

I actually read a comic yesterday where they did that.

Of corse, it was mostly a talking cat that did it, but still.

Nope. 90% of questions start with should, what, how, when, etc...so you already know its a question.

That's just nonsense, when you include the "etc" at the end of your examples it makes the whole contention meaningless. With the etc there you would be as well saying 100% of questions, making it a non-point, enough said.

And also, any statement can be made into a question, simply by punctuating it properly.

"You are going to the cinema." is a statement.

"You are going to the cinema?" is a question.

"You are going to the cinema!" is an exclamation.

These marks tell us things which would normally be conveyed by tone and the inflections in our voice.

JPaul does that mean you agree with 100%'s proposal?

It actually makes sence to me. Particularly when reading out loud. To know it's a question in advance must surely be a better option than to find out at the end of the sentence.
