Разделительные вопросы с "хвостиком" (Questions Tags на русском) в английском языке | Грамматика

Разделительные вопросы, также известные как вопросы "с хвостиком" или Tag Questions, состоят из двух частей. Первая часть предложения может быть утвердительной или отрицательной, а вторая часть, называемая "хвостиком", представляет собой краткий общий вопрос. Question tags, also known as tag questions, are formed by adding a short question at the end of a statement. They are used to confirm or emphasize agreement with the previous statement or to seek confirmation from the listener. Here are some examples of question tags: It&a beautiful day, isn&it? You don&mind helping me, do you? She sings really well, doesn&she? We won&be late, will we? They haven&finished yet, have they? He&a great dancer, isn&he? You&seen that movie, haven&you? They don&like spicy food, do they? He can speak French, can&he? She didn&go to the party, did she? In these examples, the first part of the sentence is a statement, and the second part (the question tag) seeks confirmation or agreement. The question tag usually matches the main verb tense and uses the opposite form of the statement. If the statement is positive, the question tag is negative, and vice versa. It&important to note that question tags can vary based on the speaker&intention or the regional dialect. Additionally, the intonation used when speaking a question tag can convey different meanings, such as seeking information, seeking agreement, or expressing doubt. Thank you for watching! #grammar
