Answer 2

Answer:

1) A positive statement should be followed by a negative question tag:

- He IS from France, ISN'T he?

- She CAN speak English, CAN'T she?

- You WERE here last Sunday, WEREN'T you?

(2) A negative statement should be followed by a positive question tag:

- We AREN'T going, ARE we?

- They WON'T be visiting us anymore, WILL they?

(3) It should be noted that only pronouns appear in question tags.

Therefore, if the subject of a sentence is a noun, it should be replaced with a pronoun in the question tag:

- MARY has gone to Rome, hasn't SHE?

- JACK shouldn't say things like that, should HE?

(4) Also, question tags are formed using the modal (helping) verbs in a sentence:

- Lilian CAN swim, CAN'T she?

- He COULDN'T walk yet when he was three, COULD he?

(5) But if the sentence does not have a modal verb in it, question tags are formed using do / don't, does / doesn't (for statements in present tense) and did / didn't (for statements in past tense).

- I guess Mother WENT to the mall yesterday, DIDN'T she?

- You PLAY the guitar, DON'T you?

- Aaron LIKES football, DOESN'T he?

(6) If sentences contain words that have negative meaning such as hardly, rarely, barely, seldom, never, the question tag should be definitely positive.

- They RARELY eat in a restaurant, DO they?

Note : Some modals have different question tags.

- (I am) becomes (aren't I?)

- (will not) becomes (won't)

- Likewise, (won't) becomes (will)

Examples:

(a) I AM a English woman, AREN'T I?

(b) Jason WON'T come, WILL he?

Exceptions :

(i) Positive imperatives (also known as commands)

- Stop singing, will / won't you?

(ii) Negative imperatives

- Don't go there, will you?

(iii) Let's

- Let's go to the park, shall we?

(iv) There is / are

- There isn't any slot left, is there?
