Question tags
Question tags
Question tags are the short questions that we put on the end of sentences – particularly in spoken English. There are lots of different question tags but the rules are not difficult to learn.Positive/negative
If the main part of the sentence is positive, the question tag is negative ….
- He’s a doctor, isn’t he?
- You work in a bank, don’t you?
- You haven’t met him, have you?
- She isn’t coming, is she?
The question tag uses the same verb as the main part of the sentence. If this is an auxiliary verb (‘have’, ‘be’) then the question tag is made with the auxiliary verb.
- They’ve gone away for a few days, haven’t they?
- They weren’t here, were they?
- He had met him before, hadn’t he?
- This isn’t working, is it?
If the main part of the sentence doesn’t have an auxiliary verb, the question tag uses an appropriate form of ‘do’.
- I said that, didn’t I?
- You don’t recognise me, do you?
- She eats meat, doesn’t she?
If there is a modal verb in the main part of the sentence the question tag uses the same modal verb.
- They couldn’t hear me, could they?
- You won’t tell anyone, will you?
Be careful with question tags with sentences that start ‘I am’. The question tag for ‘I am’ is ‘aren’t I?’
- I’m the fastest, aren’t I?
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.

3 Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to you regarding the position of a Saturday sales assistant at your bakery. I would like to apply for the position, which I saw advertised recently in a local newspaper. [P] I believe that I am an ideal candidate for the post as I am very hard-working and confident with other people. I am also patient and enjoy helping others.
[P] Furthermore, I have experience of working in a shop situation. Last summer I worked part-time as a sales assistant in a local newsagent’s. My previous employer was very pleased with my work and she can provide a reference if you need one. [P] I would be grateful if you would consider me for the post. I am available at any time you wish to come for an interview.
Yours faithfully,
Sam Lewis
