Presentation transcript:

WHAT IS QUESTION TAGS? Question tags are short questions at the end of statements.

They are mainly used in speech when we want to: a. confirm that something is true or not, or b. to encourage a reply from the person we are speaking to.

Form : Positive Statement → negative question tag Negative statement → positive question tag

The statement have raising intonations at end of the sentences. The auxiliaries (is, am, are, has, do, does, did) are repeated in the tags. for example: a. They aren't funny, are they? b. Jack is from Spain, isn't he?

 Other verbs use don’t/ doesn’t / didn’t on the tags. for example : a. You play the guitar, don't you? b. They went to the cinema, didn't they?

Some verbs / expressions have different question tags. For example:  I am - I am attractive, aren't I?  Positive imperative - Stop daydreaming, will / won't you?  Negative imperative - Don't stop singing, will you?  Let's - Let's go to the beach, shall we?  Have got (possession) - He has got a car, hasn't he?  There is / are - There aren't any spiders in the bedroom, are there?  This / that is - This is Paul's pen, isn't it?

 Eka : Onci plays the guitar well, doesn’t he ? Rino: Yes, he does / No, he doesn’t.  Dina : Mr Majid does his work excellenty, doesn’t he? Rara : Yes, he does / No, he doesn’t.
