An open question is when someone can answer a question with an explanation and not just a straight 'yes' or 'no' answer.
A closed question is just a straight one word answer such as 'yes' or 'no'.
A direct question is a question directed at a specific person such as 'are you going to watch TV. An indirect question is for example 'is anyone going to watch TV'
A leading question is any question in which the asker gives hints to the answer, or "leads" the answerer to a given answer.
