Observaţii:

1. Question tags - verbul "to be"

• You are at home, aren’t you?
• David is a clever young man, isn’t he?
• My parents weren’t curious, were they?

Atunci când subiectul este exprimat printr-un substantiv, identificăm pronumele personal care îl înlocuieşte. În cazurile de mai sus, "David" devine "he", iar "my parents" devine "they".

La fel se comportă verbul "to have" şi verbele modale:

• Doris has a cat, hasn’t she?
• The boy can swim, can’t he?

2. Question tags - verbul "to do"

Folosim verbul "to do" pentru formarea întrebărilor disjunctive atunci când propoziția are orice alt verb în afară de "to be", "to have" sau verbe modale.

• Helen studies for her exams, doesn’t she?
• You don’t like that book, do you?

Observaţii pentru orice formă a verbelor:

a. Atunci când propoziția e afirmativă, verbul din întrebarea disjunctivă va fi la forma negativă.

b. La fel vom proceda în cazul unei propoziţii negative - în întrebarea disjunctivă verbul va fi la forma afirmativă.
