Japanese help

[Alexcalibur]

I just want to make sure this says what I mean it to say before I submit it to what I am doing

 

おんがくを　ききますか

I found noun music and the verb to hear in my book, am I ok to add the question particle か to the end of the statement to make it a question?

Use google translate

 

Aside from this being against the CoC, I've found Google Translate to be extremely inaccurate for Japanese. e.g. It translated what was supposed to be "Pride of the King of Knights" as "Dust of Beans".

My wife is on her way to school right now in Tokyo and she says yes it's asking if you listen to music

 

Edit: and that it's a proper question

Awesome dude thanks. I have a bunch of similar questions for my class due tomorrow and I wasn't quite sure whether or not that was right. You and your wife are real life savers

soon cell phone apps will be able to converse and translate for us, maybe another 5 yrs or 10

@IskanderEXC All questions in Japanese [in this phase of learning] are simply statements (or perhaps assertions would be a better word) followed by the particle か.

 

There are a few question words, such as なん, なに (what),  いつ (when),  いくつ (where),  いくら (how much), だれ (who).  Also, the こ|そ|あ patterned words can be used with ど to express a question, such as ここ(here), そこ(there), あそこ(over there), どこ (where) and これ(this), それ(that), あれ(that over there), with  どれ(which).  All questions with these words still end with the particle か.

You can also use a negative form to make a request, similar to the negative in the English request "won't you."

いっしょにばんごはんをたべませんか。 Won't you eat dinner with me?

おんがくをききませんか。Won't you listen to some music?

I don't get what you are complaining about, that's perfect 10 right there.
