Negative Questions & Tag Questions
This document provides instruction on confirming information using negative questions and tag questions in English. It explains that negative questions can be used to ask for confirmation of something believed to be true or express surprise that something has not happened. Tag questions, consisting of a short question added to the end of a statement, are used to confirm or encourage a reply. The document reviews the formation of negative questions and tag questions based on tense, verb type, and meaning. Examples are provided to demonstrate their use. Exercises at the end practice applying these question structures in conversations.
Tag questions
The document discusses tag questions in English. Tag questions are statements followed by a mini-question, called a question tag. They are used to ask for confirmation of a statement, meaning "am I right?" or "do you agree?". The structure is a positive statement followed by a negative tag, or a negative statement followed by a positive tag. Examples are given of common tag questions with different subjects, auxiliaries, and verbs. Special cases and the use of intonation to change meaning are also covered.
Question tags: English Language
Question tags are used in conversations to check agreement or get more information. They are added to statements and questions and can be answered with "yes" or "no". The tense and auxiliary verb used in the question tag matches the main sentence. Question tags with rising intonation indicate uncertainty, while falling intonation implies the speaker expects agreement. They are a tool for keeping dialogues engaged and learning more.
3.2 interrogativesen cont
Interrogative sentences are used to ask questions and can be divided into different types including yes/no questions, alternative questions, WH- questions, tag questions, and declarative sentences followed by a question mark. Tag questions restate the previous sentence in question form and can indicate politeness, emphasis, or irony. The structure and intonation of tag questions can vary depending on whether they are used to confirm a belief or confront someone.

Tag questions Dr. Ghobadi rad
This document discusses tag questions and how to form them. It explains that tag questions are questions added to the end of a statement to seek confirmation. There are two main purposes for tag questions - to clarify information or signal agreement. The document provides a step-by-step process for forming tag questions based on verb tense, person, affirmative/negative statements, and subjects like "I", "let's", or "nobody". It also notes special cases and examples of using tag questions.
Tag Questions.pdf
Tag questions are short questions added to the end of statements. They are used to confirm information, encourage a response, or check understanding. A positive statement is followed by a negative tag question, while a negative statement uses a positive tag. Tag questions are formed using auxiliary verbs like "do", "does", and "did" or modal verbs from the statement. There are some exceptions to typical tag question formation for verbs like "be", imperatives, and expressions involving "have got" or "there is/are". Intonation also affects the meaning conveyed by tag questions.
Tag questions
Tag questions are statements followed by a short question at the end to request confirmation or agreement. They follow the structure of a positive statement with a negative tag or vice versa. The intonation and meaning can change depending on whether it is a real question or a statement. Answers to tag questions should reflect the true facts rather than simply agreeing with the question. Question tags are also sometimes used with imperatives for invitations or orders.
Auxiliary and modal verbs
Auxiliary and modal verbs help form tenses, voices, and moods. There are primary auxiliaries like be, have, and do as well as modal auxiliaries like shall, should, will, would, may, might, can, could, must, ought to, used to, need and dare. Auxiliary verbs are used in short answers, to avoid repetition, with so and neither, in "echo" questions, to show emphasis, and in question tags. Question tags are formed with an auxiliary verb and pronoun and are used to check something believed to be true or to ask for agreement.

What’ s the question
This document discusses different types of questions in English, including yes/no questions, WH- questions, subject/object questions, negative questions, indirect questions, and question tags. Yes/no questions use auxiliary verbs and short answers. WH- questions start with question words like who, what, when and use subject-verb inversion. Subject/object questions differ based on whether the question word is the subject or object. Negative questions add "not" and question tags check statements by adding a negative or positive tag depending on the statement.
TAG QUESTIONS.pptx
1. Tag questions are questions formed by adding a short question to the end of a statement, such as "It's a nice day, isn't it?". They are used to confirm what was stated with the listener.
2. The auxiliary verb or "to be" verb used in the statement is also used to form the tag question. If there is no auxiliary, "do/does/did" is used.
3. The polarity of the tag question depends on the statement - a positive statement takes a negative tag and vice versa. Tag questions can be said with rising or falling intonation depending on the speaker's certainty.
Question Tags.ppt
Question tags are short questions added to declarative or negative sentences to check understanding or agreement. They usually use an auxiliary verb and either a positive or negative tag depending on the main clause. There are rules for forming question tags based on whether the main clause is positive or negative and what auxiliary verb it contains. Questions tags are a grammatical structure used in English to engage the listener and confirm shared understanding.
Question Tags
This document discusses tag questions in grammar. It explains that tag questions are short questions added to the end of statements. The subject and verb in the tag question must match the statement. Positive statements typically have negative tags and vice versa. It provides examples of tag questions with different verbs like "have", "do", and "be". The document also discusses the use of rising and falling intonation in tag questions and how they indicate whether the speaker is genuinely asking a question or seeking agreement.
Tagquestions
The document provides information about tag questions in English. It defines a tag question as a sentence with a question phrase connected at the end. There are two purposes of tag questions: 1) to clarify information when the speaker expects an answer, and 2) to agree with someone when the speaker does not expect an answer. It then outlines six steps for forming tag questions based on identifying the verb, tense, person, and whether it is affirmative or negative. Examples are provided to illustrate each step. Common verbs that form tags differently like "be" are also noted. The summary concludes by stating tag questions follow different word order than statements, putting the verb before the subject.
Question tags
Question tags are short questions added to the end of statements in English to seek confirmation or agreement. They are formed by using an auxiliary or modal verb from the statement and changing it to a positive or negative tag depending on whether the statement is positive or negative. Question tags are commonly used in speech to check facts or encourage a response and take rising or falling intonation to change the implied meaning.
Tag questions
Tag questions are short questions added to the end of statements to check for confirmation or agreement. They usually use an auxiliary verb and pronoun like "didn't he?" or "won't she?". The question tag follows the same rules as the statement - positive statements use negative tags and vice versa. Common question tags are "aren't there?", "isn't it?", "won't it?", "didn't you?", and "don't they?". Examples are provided to demonstrate how to form question tags with different statements.
Question Tags / Tags Questions
This document discusses tag questions, which are short questions added to the end of statements to seek confirmation or express doubt. It provides 5 points about constructing tag questions: 1) a comma separates the statement from the tag, 2) the subject of the tag is a corresponding pronoun, 3) the verb in the tag depends on tense and polarity of the statement verb, 4) negative verbs in tags are contracted, and 5) modal verbs or do/did are used without an auxiliary. Exceptions for verbs like be, have and exist are noted. Examples of correctly formed tag questions are provided.
Question tag
The document discusses tag questions, which are questions added to the end of statements. Tag questions serve to clarify information or show agreement. They are formed by taking the opposite of the main clause and adding a pronoun. Some key points include:
- Tag questions have the form "statement, tag?"
- They serve to clarify information or show agreement
- They are formed by identifying the verb and making the tag the opposite of the statement with a pronoun

- 1. Tag Questions ESL Lesson: Expanding Level (4) Created by: Melissa C. Stanton
- 2. To develop an understanding of Tag Questions and how they are used in the English language. Let’s Get Started! Our Goal Today is…..
- 3. A tag question, sometimes called a question tag, is a small question that comes at the end of a sentence. For Example: It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it? With a partner, examine the sentence above. What part contains the question tag? CORRECT ANSWER: isn’t it What are TAG QUESTIONS ?
- 4. Notice above, I have used a question tag. We use question tags for several reasons: To check whether something is true. You’re mad at me, aren’t you? To ask the listener to agree with what we have said. It’s a hot day out, isn’t it? To continue a conversation. If I say “You're French", that may be the end of the conversation, because you don't have to say anything. However, if I add a question tag and say, “You're French, aren't you?", I'm asking a question and now you should answer, so the conversation keeps going:- You're French, aren't you?- Yes, I am. You’re learning a lot already, aren’t you?
- 5. A positive statement is followed by a negative tag: For Example: You’re English, aren’t you? + - You’re English, aren’t you? A negative statement is followed by a positive tag: For Example: You’re not German, are you? - + You're not German, are you? How are Tag Questions formed?
- 6. With a partner, look at the following sentences listed below: Label the statement as positive or negative. Label the question tag as positive or negative. She is from England, isn't she? They aren't very nice, are they? She doesn't like it here, does she? You can sing, can't you? HINTS: The statement always comes before the comma (She is nice, isn’t she?) The question tag always comes after the comma. (She is nice, isn’t she?) Partner Work (is = positive, isn’t = negative) (aren’t = negative, are = positive) (doesn’t = negative, does = positive) (can = positive, can’t = negative)
- 8. has he?
- 9. were you?
- 10. aren’t you?
- 11. doesn’t he?
- 12. do you?
- 13. is she?
- 14. was she?
- 16. has he?
- 17. were you?
- 18. aren’t you?
- 19. doesn’t he?
- 20. do you?
- 21. is she?
- 22. was she?
- 23. did she? did she? isn’t it? doesn’t he? aren’t you? was she? do you? is she? has he? were you?
