Tag Questions
What is?
A tag question is a small question that is attached , or "tagged", to the end of a sentence. Rather than repeat the main verb, a form of "be" or other auxiliary verb or modal is used in the tag.
Question tags are short questions that are asked at the end of sentences in English for the interlocutor (the person with whom we speak) to check or discard the information of the expressed sentence.

when is it used?
Tag questions (or question tags) turn a statement into a question. They are often used for checking information that we think we know is true. Usually if the main clause is positive, the question tag is negative, and if the main clause is negative, it's positive. For example: It's cold (positive), isn't it (negative)?
Tag Questions Examples
- You're from Madrid, aren't you?
- He doesn't speak French, does he?
- He should read this book, shouldn't he?
- He was the best in the class, wasn't he?
- Your sister is in Buenos Aires, isn't she?
- They didn't go to class last week, did they?
- Open the door, will you?

Question tags are very short questions that consist of a verb and a subject and that are added after an declarative sentence to confirm the statement. They are formed with the auxiliary verb corresponding to the main verb and in the sense (affirmative or negative) opposite to the original sentence.
