Question Tag

Learning Question Tag

Question tags are short questions added at the end of a sentence to confirm information, seek agreement, or continue a conversation politely. They make spoken and written English more natural and interactive.

A question tag is formed by using the auxiliary (helping) verb from the main sentence along with the correct subject pronoun. Generally, if the main statement is positive, the question tag is negative. If the main statement is negative, the question tag is positive.

Examples:

• You are a student, aren't you?
• She can swim, can't she?
• They didn't come, did they?
• Let's begin, shall we?

Learning question tags helps you to:

✔ Speak English more naturally and confidently.
✔ Confirm information politely.
✔ Improve conversation skills.
✔ Write grammatically correct English.
✔ Score better in school and competitive examinations.

Remember: A question tag is a short question that turns a statement into a question, making communication more friendly, polite, and effective.
