Question

I can't pay you (add question tag)

Answer 1

I can't pay you. Can I?

• Question tags are used to convert a declarative or imperative statement into an interrogative sentence.

• There is a common rule for the conversion:

1. Positive statements are followed by negative question tags.

Example:

You live here, don't you?

2. Negative statements are followed by positive question tags.

Example:

I don't like you. Do I?
