How it feel
|
|
When someone has given birth, very often i hear :
(a) How it feel to be a father?
Can we say:
(b) How you feel to be a father?

(a) How does it feel to be a father?
Can we say:
(b) How do you feel being a father? (I can �t guarantee the grammatical correctness of this structure, but we use it) |

There is much grammar involved here. Questions are asked with to do, unless you use an auxiliary verb. I.e. "Can you tell me how it feels to be a father?" As that �s a bit over the top, you �ll say indeed: "How does it feel .." or "How do you feel being ..". Cheers.
