When you are making sure someone understands, which of these are correct:

  1. Do you hear me?
  2. Did you hear me?
  3. Do you hear?
  4. Do I make myself clear?
  5. Did I make myself clear?
  6. Have I made myself clear?

Many thanks.

2

All are OK, but these, “Did I make myself clear?/Have I made myself clear?” are the most fitting, presuming you have been explaining something to someone.

3

Thanks for your reply, but what does " do I make myself clear" imply? Is there any difference from “did I make myself clear”?

Thanks again.

4

It means, “Has the listener fully understood what has been said to him?” Both have the same meaning.

5

thanks again!
Good luck in all you do!

6

Yep - all are good.

#4 is better to use than #5, although they mean the same thing in conversation.
