    This document discusses tag questions, which are short yes/no questions added to the end of a statement. It notes that a negative tag should follow an affirmative statement, while an affirmative tag follows a negative one. Tag questions are used to confirm a previous idea or opinion. They are more common in spoken than written English. Affirmative sentences containing negative adverbs or words like "no" require an affirmative tag due to their underlying negative meaning. The document also covers tag questions with forms of "be", "have", modal verbs, and "do", as well as subject pronouns in tags and includes exercises.

    Tag Question
    A tag question (or tag) is an addition to a sentence. It is a short Yes/No question added at the end of a statement. It is separated from the statement by a coma. Use a negative tag after an affirmative statement. A negative tag is often contracted. Use an affirmative tag after a negative statement. An affirmative tag is never contracted.

    Uses
    Use a tag question when you have a previous or opinion idea about something and want to confirm it. Use a Yes/No question when you have no previous idea or opinion. Tag Questions are more common in spoken English than in Written. An affirmative sentence that uses a negative adverb of frequency (such as rarely, hardly, seldom, and never) or a word with no (such as nobody, nowhere, and nothing) has a negative meaning and requires an affirmative tag.
