Answers
Add appropriate questions tags to the following statement.
a)He comes to school on time. Doesn't he?
b) Your sister painted well. Didn't she?
Explanation:-
a) He "comes" to school on time refers that there is no proper modal verb to add a tag. So, we use the word comes in this sentence. Therefore, as the word comes shows that the word is continuing. So we use, "doesn't he?"
b) Your sister "painted" well refers also refers the same as in the example of the above explanation. So, the word panted shows that the word was done in the past. So we use, "didn't she?"
Question tags:-
- These are the contracted form of questions.
- Used at the end of the completed sentence.
- When it is a positive sentence we use the tags in negative form and when we say a negative sentence we use positive tags.
Some question tags are:
Are they/he/she/it?
Aren't they/he/she/it?
Is he/she/it?
Isn't he/she/it?
Should he/she/it?
Shouldn't he/she/it?
Will they/he/she/it?
Won't they/he/she/it? etc.....
Positive sentence usage with the tag:
For example:
He IS doing better. Isn't he?
Negative sentence usage with the tag:
For example:
He IS not doing better. Is he?
