Question Tags are short tail questions added at the statement but separated by a comma. We do so invite the listener's attention and confirm a thet! the statement. It is used in conversation, The speaker expects the listener to agree with his view, 12""8it asking ‘Do you love music?’ Imay say *You love music, don’t you?” This suggests that I believe y dat music, The short question “don’t you"? added at the end of the statement is a question tag, Taq 01" indicate the speaker's attitude to a statement. It may show agreement, interest, belief or disbetiet? Rules for the formation of Tag Questions: (1) Anaffirmative statement takes a negative Tag question and a negative statement will tke an af Tag question. imate eg. 1. Ram enjoys sweets, doesn’t he? 2. We don’t enjoy sweets, do we? (a) Please note that the subject ofthe Tag question in No.1 is ‘he’ a pronoun and not Ram je proper noun. (b) The tag question is formed by using the (helping verb) auxiliary verb (do/does) and no, main verb ‘enjoy’. 7 2 _ Inthe sentences with the “be verb” [amvis/are/was/were/will be] ~ the “Be' verb is repeated in the ig question as in: ‘You are ill, aren't you? They will come, won't they? ‘The formation of Tag question for the ‘be verb" is ‘am’. Lam tall, aren't 1? (and not amn’tI?) But for the Negative sentence ‘I am not rich’, itis ‘am I?” () We use the shortened form of the negative (shall + not) shan’t / can’t / won't only and not the fal form. ‘The shortened or contracted forms are: Do not - Don’t Was not Wasn't Does not - Doesn't Were not Weren't Am not - Aren’t/ Ain't Cannot - Can't Is not - Isn't Could not = ‘Couldn't Are not - Aren't Didnot —- Didn't Shall not - Shan’t Should not - Shouldn't Will not - Won't Have not - Haven't Ought not = Oughtn’t Has not = Hasn't May not - Mayn’t Might not - ‘Mightn’t Need not - Needn’t Must not - Mustn’t Points to remember: (1). This / That (singular) used as the subject take ‘it’ in the Tag question. ‘These / Those (plural) take ‘they’ in the Tag question. e.g. This is a fire room, isn’tit? That is a fire room, isn’t it? o ‘These boys are good, aren’t they? quis 2) ‘There’ and ‘it’ are used as informal (dummy) subjects in co meaning Today is hot and “There is book on the table” meaning A book is. such cases the Tag question takes ‘it / there’. pat?o cag test today isn ‘phere is @ ‘pook on the table, isn’t there? ‘Tet Teer to somethin inthe pas nd not nthe present puedo smoke during college days means he did so then and not now.

You had better stay at home (you are sick) — The Tag question will be ‘You had better stay at home, hadn't you? cuaowive “would sather”shosta preference forsomething when there is chee, Ue would eater have coffee than tea, would’? “This sentence would take ‘wouldn't in the Tag question. We use ‘will for command and request as in. (pen the door meaning you will open (as @ command). Snitch off the AC (I feel cold) meaning I request you to doit. ‘The Tag question in these cases are: eg, open the door SE choff the AC, (ill you? not won't you?) Weinvite and make offer in the sentences. ‘Walk in — invita this — offe ‘The Tag question will be pe akin eon'tyou) Try this, won't you? We make proposal and suggestion using ‘let’ eg-Letus start, shall we? Let us disperse ‘The Tag question for this is only ‘shall we?” Everyone is common gender singular indefinite pronoun. ‘The Tag question takes ‘they’. eg., Everyone was satisfied, weren't Everyone welcomed the President, didn’t they? “Qe! isa singular indefinite pronoun referring to a person. ‘The Tag question in these statements take ‘he / you’. ‘eg., Onecan do it easily, can’the? / you? ‘One cannot do it singly, can he? / you? ‘The Tag form for ‘must’ will be ‘eg.
