## English Grammar: Question Tags (Tag Questions)

💡 **KEY FORMULA / RULE:** A **question tag** turns a statement into a question by matching the auxiliary or modal verb and subject pronoun of the main sentence. If the main clause is **positive** , the tag must be **negative** ; if the main clause is **negative** , the tag must be **positive**.

* * *

### 🧠 SOLUTION & OPTION ANALYSIS

- **1. It’s next to the supermarket, isn’t it?**
  - The main verb is the positive auxiliary “is” (_It’s_ = _It is_), so the question tag requires the negative form **isn’t it**.

- **2. You met my brother last week, didn’t you?**
  - The verb “met” is in the simple past tense (positive), so it takes the past auxiliary _did_ in the negative form: **didn’t you**.

- **3. He was born in 1970, wasn’t he?**
  - The verb is the past form of _to be_ (“was”, positive), which requires the negative tag **wasn’t he**.

- **4. Bela can help, can’t she?**
  - The modal verb is “can” (positive), so the tag requires the negative modal **can’t she**.

- **5. I’m right, aren’t I?**
  - In standard English grammar, the regular negative question tag for “I am” is the idiomatic form **aren’t I**.

- **6. You can’t drive down your road, can you?**
  - The statement uses a negative modal (“can’t”), so it requires an affirmative tag: **can you**.

- **7. They won’t be late, will they?**
  - The statement has a negative auxiliary (“won’t” = _will not_), which takes the positive tag **will they**.

- **8. You’re coming tomorrow, aren’t you?**
  - The statement uses the present continuous positive auxiliary (“are”, _You’re_ = _You are_), so the tag must be negative: **aren’t you**.

* * *

✅ **FINAL ANSWER:**

1. **isn’t it**
2. **didn’t you**
3. **wasn’t he**
4. **can’t she**
5. **aren’t I**
6. **can you**
7. **will they**
8. **aren’t you**

⚠ **EXAM INSIGHT / PITFALL:** Remember the irregular exception: while the negative tag for _I am_ is **aren’t I?** , the positive tag for _I’m not_ remains regular: **am I?** (e.g., _I’m not late, am I?_).
