EXPLANATION:

★Defining a Question Tag

• The small question at the end of a statement is called a question tag

For example:-

1. Meena has written the best essay, hasn't she?
2. We all are proud of her, aren't we?

Each of these sentences has two parts: a Statement (Meena has written the best essay) and a short Question (hasn't she?). This short question has been tagged on to the Statement, so it is called a Question Tag,

Question Tags are used to seek agreement or confirmation about what has been said from the person who is talked to.

★FORMING QUESTION TAGS

Take the sentence-

• Meena has written the best essay for the essay competition, hasn't she?

The question tag consists of only two words – hasn't she? It uses the Pronoun of the same person as the Subject: she.

The Tense remains the same.

★STRUCTURE:-

• ↬Positive Statement + Negative Question Tag
• ↬Negative Statement + Positive Question Tag.

★NOTE:-

• Affirmative Statements have Negative tags and vice versa.

• Auxiliaries are repeated.

• For Main Verbs use do, does, did.

• We usually use shortened or contracted form of the Negatives, isn't, can't doesn't, etc.

• Certain tags expect responses and certain others do not anticipate responses. This is a note for the spoken form.
