How does the Italian language show a question? Do they use an upside down question mark at the beginning of the sentence?

Italians do not use an "upside down question mark at the beginning of a sentence".

Explanation:

Most of the punctuation in Italian is just like punctuation in English. When forming a question in Italian one simply places a question mark at the end of the sentence, for example:

Scusi, parla inglese?

Which means:

Excuse me, do you speak English?
