Question tag:
He sometimes read the newspaper - doesn't he?
Explanation:
- A tag question is a construct in which an interrogative element is added to a declarative or imperative sentence.
- The resulting speech act consists of an assertion paired with a confirmation request. In most languages, tag questions are more common in oral than in formal written use.
- They can indicate trust or lack of trust. They can be confrontational, defensive, or timid.
- They have the grammatical form of a question, but can be rhetorical (no answer expected).
- In other cases, the expected answer may differ from a simple question in that it indicates to the listener what kind of answer is expected.
- In legal contexts, tag questions are often seen as key questions.
- English tagging questions are very complex because the grammatical form of the question depends on at least two factors: auxiliary verb choice, negation.
