Answer 2

In English, the verb "is" is used to indicate the present tense of the third-person singular form. So, to determine whether to use "is" before "friend" in the sentence "Your friend listening to music now?" you need to consider whether "friend" is acting as a third-person singular subject.

In this case, "friend" is acting as a singular noun, and the correct form of the sentence would be:

"Is your friend listening to music now?"

Here are some general rules for using "is":

1. Present Simple tense: Use "is" with singular subjects (he, she, it) in the present tense.

Example: She is studying for her exam.

2. Present Continuous tense: Use "is" with the present participle form (-ing) of the verb for singular subjects (he, she, it) in the present continuous tense.

Example: He is watching a movie right now.

3. For plural subjects (they, we, you, etc.), use "are" instead of "is."

Example: They are playing soccer in the park.

Remember that the form of the verb "to be" (is, am, are) changes depending on the subject and the tense of the sentence.
