You can write :
George ne vous parlera t-il pas ?
Tu n'es pas blessé ?
for "Won't George talk to you?" you need to add an extra pronoun with "t-..." if it's third person ( singular and plural ) = Les gens ne vous parlerons t-ILS pas ?
For other pronoun it's easier, it is the same as a negative sentence, we notice it's a question thanks to the tone which rises at the end of the sentence ( In french, we usually down the tone at the end of an affirmative sentence ).
We can also write "aren't you injured?" " n'es tu pas blessé, same reversal as in English :)
