The document discusses question tags, which are short questions added to statements to seek confirmation or agreement. It explains that question tags follow the same auxiliary verb or modal as the main clause with opposite polarity. Several examples are provided of statements with their corresponding question tags in English and Indonesian. The document also covers special cases like statements containing negative words or subjects like "somebody."

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Question tag is an expression used at the end of a sentence to ask for
confirmation or agreement about something we are not sure.
The tag is constructed by finding out the auxiliary verb of the sentence
and then put it at the end part.
It is used particularly in spoken English.
Question tag adalah untuk sebuah pertanyaan yang dibuat dalam satu
kalimat untuk sebuah penegasan. Kadang-kadang pertanyaan jenis ini
tidak membutuhkan jawaban apapun, kecuali hanya untuk penegas si
pembicara kepada yang diajak bicara. dalam bahasa Indonesia
question tag adalah kata "bukan?" “kan?” untuk sebuah penegasan.
Contoh:
- dia anak pintar, kan?
- kamu mengerti, bukan?
3. If the main part of the sentence is positive, the question
tag is negative.
if the main part of the sentence is negative, the question
tag is positive.
Questions tags are auxiliaries (kt. bantu) and pronouns
(kt. ganti).
The statement and the tag are always separated by a
comma.
Treat any statements with nothing, nobody etc. like
negative statements.

Nobody called me,

did they?
6. Positive Statement, Negative Tag?
Statement (+) Question Tag (-)
Mira is a nurse, isn’t she?
She comes here, doesn’t she?
Soeharto led this country for more than 10 years, didn’t he?
He had met him before, hadn’t he?
Negative Statement, Positive Tag?
Statement (+) Question Tag (-)
She does not cook every day, does she?
They haven’t sacrificed their life for us, have they?
We were not lazy, were we?
7. The question tag for ‘I am’ is ‘aren’t I?
e.g. I’m the fastest, aren’t I? not: am not I?
When the statement is positive, but contains a negative word (never,
barely, seldom, scarcely, hardly) then the question tag must be in
positive form.
e.g. They seldom visit their children, do they?
Tantri never reads the Jakarta Post, does she?
When the subjects of the statement are somebody, someone,
everybody, everyone, nobody, and none, the personal pronoun in
the QT must be they.
e.g. Somebody is looking at me, aren’t they?
nobody called me, did they?
8. When the subjects of the statement are something, everything,
nothing, the pronoun in QT is it.
e.g. Everything is running well, isn’t it?
Nothing can change my love for you, can it?
When the subject of a positive statement in simple present is I, the
QT is “aren’t I?” and not vice versa.
e.g. I am a successful student, aren’t I?
I am a scholar, aren’t I?
I am not late, am I?
I am not a good man for her, am I?
The QT of let’s is “shall we?”
e.g. Let’s go to the movie, shall we?
Let’s go, shall we?
9. The QT of imperative (kalimat perintah) is “will ”, “would”, “won’t”.
e.g. Go out, will you?
Don’t smoke here, will you?
Open the window, will you?
Open the window, would you?
We use won't with a polite request e.g. Open the window, won't you?
The pronoun for the baby is it.
e.g. The baby is sleeping now, isn’t it?
The QT of there is there.
e.g. There is a letter for me, isn’t there?
In informal context/situation, the question tags used are usually right,
OK, correct.
e.g. John isn’t going, right?
I am your teacher, OK?
If there is a modal verb in the main part of the sentence the question tag
uses the same modal verb.
e.g. They couldn’t hear me, could they?
You won’t tell anyone, will you?
We should have left earlier, shouldn't we?
10. Question tags can either be ‘real’ questions where you
want to know the answer or simply asking for agreement
when we already know the answer.
If the question tag is a real question we use rising
intonation. Our tone of voice rises.
If we already know the answer we use falling
intonation. Our tone of voice falls.

Editor's Notes
Question tag is sometimes answered by using ‘yes’ or ‘no’. When we answer a question tag, it means that we respond to the main statement/clause, not the ‘tag’. If we agree with the main statement/clause, we use ‘Yes’ for positive sentences, and ‘No’ for negative. e.g. you are happy, aren’t you? Yes, I am. He won’t come, will he? No, he won’t. (Not ‘Yes, he won’t)
You can agree or refuse to a sentence with a question tag. You go to school, don't you? You agree: Yes, I do. You refuse: No, I don't.
You aren't from Germany, are you? You agree: No, I'm not. You refuse: Yes, I am.
We must be at home at 8 pm, mustn't we? Yes, we must. No, we needn't
