In the feature 116A, Czech is classified as a language forming its polar questions via interrogative word-order. This is not the case, since:
Budeš pít pivo. (falling intonation) = You will drink beer.
Budeš pít pivo? (rising intonation) = Will you drink beer?
or
Chceš se mě na něco zeptat. (falling int.) = You want to ask me something.
Chceš se mě na něco zeptat? (rising int.) = Do you want to ask me something?
This is by far the most common word order in polar questions in Czech. Other variations are possible for the FSP purposes, but this is the basic and most prevalent one.
