See the example.

To create a question in Simple past we normally put DID at the beginning of the question, then add a subject
(the person or thing that does the action) followed by the base form of the verb and only then add the rest of
the sentence.

Affirmative: You spoke Spanish.
Question: Did you speak Spanish?
We don’t use DID in questions that have the verb To Be or Modal Verbs
(can, must, might, should etc.).
Affirmative: The hotel was very nice.
Question: Was the hotel nice?

In questions and negatives, we add did/didn’t + infinitive.
