Help with interrogative subject
Hello everybody, english is not my mother language, so we are in english class now, but my teacher just wrote this:
"He is?" and negative, "he is not?"
Even our frikin' english books says "Is he?" or "is not he?" and he just says "nah the writers messed up with that".
He even says that "it" it's prounced like "at". Yep, like saying the number 8. I don't know whats wrong with him.
I don't wanna start a fight about this 'cause i know this kind of teachers, they get mad and you'll get an F, but if i'm asked about it, could any of you give me a "source" or something where i can find this rules? I mean, like the RAE in spanish (Real Academia Española), or something i can use as an irrefutable argument.
Thank you for taking your time reading.

We don't have an RAE equivalent, but you have not supplied adequate context for your teacher's remarks, and your own written English is atrocious, so I suspect that you did not understand your teacher's explanation. If you still think he is wrong, please explain more about the context.
