>Exactly - I had no idea that my question was ambiguous. Ambiguity is so omnipresent, I sometimes just stop in the middle of a sentence, looking for a word which won't possibly be misunderstood.

But it wasn't ambiguous except for the lack of question mark. You could write, in ANY language:

"You have been to the store" and without "?" it's a statement; with - a question.
