TAG QUESTIONS
To provide an extra force to a statement, tag questions are often
attached. We come across them in conversation and in informal
letters
The tag is an incomplete question.
Generally, the tag pattern is………….
Auxiliary / Model + n’t + Pronoun (sub) followed by a question mark.
Auxiliary /Model + Pronoun (sub) followed by a quark.
A Positive statement takes Negative Tag
A negative statement takes Positive Tag.
Made for each – Other :
01.
Positive statements hug negative tags :
E.g. She signs well, doesn’t she?
*(in the absence of an auxiliary verb,. ‘ do’ does the action)
02.
Negative statements join hands with positive tags;
E.g. Sheela does not work hard, does she?
03.
When half-negatives or depreciative words – little, few,
hardly scarcely used in a statement, it is considered negative
and goes with a positive tag.
E.g. He seldom does his work, does he?
04.
“ A few” and a little are used in positive sense and get with
negative tags.
E.g. A few students attended the class, didn’t they?
05.
Only as adverb, tags with both the statements- Positive and
Negative
E.g. There are only ten students , aren’t there?
06.
If a personal pronoun is used as the subject, it is to be retained
in the tag; if a noun is used as subject, ‘he’, ‘she’, ‘it’ or
‘they’ is used in the tags.
E.g.
The boy is blind , isn’t he?
Shilpa has a car, hasn’t She?
07.
if the indefinite pronoun ‘ one’ is used as the subject , it
should be retained in the tag :
E.g.
One should be sincere in one’s work, shouldn’t
one?
126
08.
When have is used with a sense of possession ‘do’, does,
or ‘did’ is used in the tag (a negative tag)
Eg.
He has lunch at noon. Doesn’t he?
09.
For Proposals - positive tag is used.
Eg.
Let’s have a little break, shall we?
10.
Imperative verbs tug with positive tags.
E.g.
Come early will you ?
11.
if the verb is a compound tense, auxiliary alone is used.
12.
if the auxiliary is a compound form. The first word of it is
used.
13.
Therefore for this purpose can, may, ought and ‘ need’ are
treated as auxiliary verbs.
E.g.
He has finished the work. Hasn’t he?
His car is being repaired , isn’t it?
14.
if ‘ it/There is used as the introductory subject, it is to be
retained in the tag.
E.g.
Three is a cozy house isn’t there?
15.
Statements expressing impatience take the tag - can’t you?
E.g. Use your intelligent, can’t you?
16.
Anyone, everyone and someone are singular, but take tags
in plural.
E.g.
Every body can’t become rich, can they?
17.
None of followed by plural noun takes plural tag.
E.g.
None of the students passed. did they?
18.
When the speaker is not included in the list of the late
comers, you can use ‘they’ instead of ‘we’
E.g.
Some of us were detained , weren’t they?
19.
In imaginary conditions …………..
E.g.
I shouldn’t be surprised if he married her, would you?
20.
When something , anything, everything or nothing is used as
the subject ‘it’ is used in the tag.
E.g.
Nothing is new here, is it?

Three quarters of a ton is too much.
3.6 kilometres is about 2 miles.
nought, zero, nil etc
The figure 0 is usually called nought in British English, and
zero in American English, When we say numbers one figure at a
time, 0 is often called oh ( like the letter O).
My account number is four one three oh six.
In measurements of temperature, 0 is called zero in both British and
American English. Zero is followed by a plural noun.
Zero degrees Celsius is thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit.
Zero scores in team games are called nil (American zero or nothing).
In tennis and similar games, the word love is used ( originally from
French) l'oeuf, meaning 'the egg' - the figure 0 is egg-shaped).
And the score at half-time is : Scotland three, England nil.
Forty - love; Andrews to serve.
Telephone numbers
We say each figure separately, pausing after groups of three
or four ( not two).
When the same figure comes twice, British people usually say double.
3074922 three oh seven, four nine double two
( US three zero seven, four nine two two)
Roman numbers
Roman numbers (I, II, III, IV etc) are not common in modern
English, but they are still used in a few cases- for example the names
of kings and queens, page numbers in the introductions to some
books, the numbers of paragraphs in some documents, the numbers
of questions in some examinations, the figures on some clock faces,
and occasionally the names of centuries.
It was built in the time of Henry V.
For details. see Introduction page ix.
Do question(vi) or question (vii), but not both.
