100 Question Tag Examples

Examples of Question Tag

A question tag is a small question added to the end of a sentence. It turns a statement into a question. We use question tags to confirm information or ask for agreement. The rules for using question tags are simple: if the sentence is positive, the tag is negative, and if the sentence is negative, the tag is positive. The tense of the sentence also determines the form of the question tag.
