Mohan wrote a letter, didn't he?

Explanation:

Question tag -

When the speaker add a question at the end of the sentence with the help of auxiliaries we can call it question tag.

The purpose of adding question is to give emphasis on the statement.

If sentence is positive we should add negative question tag and if sentence is negative add positive question tag.

Use do, does, did according to the verb form if helping verb is not available.

Here, in the given sentence there is no helping verb and it is in past tense, so we should use 'did' to add question tag.

Examples-

They are hard workers.

They are hard workers, aren't they?

She finished her work.

She finished her work, didn't she?

He runs fast.

He runs fast, doesn't he?

Answer:

Mohan wrote a letter, didn't he?

Explanation :

  • 'Mohan wrote a letter' is a positive sentence and didn't he is its negative tail, so we can conclude that positive sentence takes negative question tag.

  • When there is no auxiliary verb in the sentence, the question tag is formed by the use of the verb 'to do' in the proper form. Here in the given sentence has no auxiliary verb, that's why did with negative maker not has been used to form question tag.

  • The given positive sentence is written in simple past tense and did is auxiliary verb of past indefinite tense, so they are correct for each oother. Question tag is often used in English language, specifically in Conversations.

  • Example : We should speak the truth, shouldn't we?
