Question Tags Use
• Las question tags son preguntas cortas
que van al final de las oraciones.
• Estas se usan para confirmar si algo es
verdadero o no o para fomentar una
respuesta de la persona
que estamos hablando.

Question Tags Form
• Para formar una question tag usamos el
auxiliar o verbo auxiliar de la oración y el
sujeto de la misma.
eg. Darth Vader is my cat, isn’t it?

Question Tags Form
Darth Vader is my cat, isn’t it?
Si la oración principal usa el verbo to be (is),
entonces de igual forma se usara en la question tag y
Darth Vader será remplazado por el pronombre it.
SUBJECT VERB

More Examples...
Conny pets Snoopa, Doesn’t she?
En este ejemplo la oración esta en
presente simple, por lo cual usamos el
auxiliar does para formar la question tag.
Fijarse que la oración principal es positiva
y la question tag, negativa.

More Examples...
JP can’t play with water, Can he?
Aqui usamos el modal verb CAN, junto
a un verbo infinitivo (play) y la oración
principal es negativa, por lo tanto al
usar el modal verb en una question
tag, esta pasará a ser positiva.
