Defining a Question Tag
- The small question at the end of a statement is called a question tag
For example:-
- Meena has written the best essay, hasn't she?
- 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.
