HOW

TO MAKE

TAG QUESTION?

A tag question is made by adding a short question at the end of a sentence.

To form a question tag, we use:

An auxiliary verb

is, are, do, does, have, will, can, etc.

A subject pronoun

I, you, they, we, he, she, it

If the main sentence is positive

The question tag must be negative

Example: You are a student, aren't you?

If the main sentence is negative

The question tag must be positive

Example: She isn't here, is she?

The auxiliary verb in the tag must match the verb tense in the main sentence.

Example:

They will come, won't they?

He has finished, hasn't he?

When the main sentence has no auxiliary verb, we use do/does/did in the question tag.

Example:

You like coffee, don't you?

She plays piano, doesn't she?
