Question tags
São perguntas feitas ao final de uma frase para checar uma informação.
Se a frase é afirmativa, a question tag é negativa, e vice-
versa.
As question tags são formadas por verbos e pronomes – nunca podemos usar
nomes.
È preciso identificar primeiro o verbo da frase, e em seguida o sujeito
. Ex.: João(sujeito) is (verbo)
your friend, isn’t he?
Verbo To Be:
He is fine, ISN’T
HE?
You are here, AREN’T YOU?
I am a teacher, AREN’T I?
I wasn’t at home, WAS I?
They weren’t there , WERE YOU?
Simple Present:
You like chocolate,DON’T
YOU? ( quando o verbo não tem –s no final, usamos don’t )
The dog barks all night, DOESN’T
IT? (quando o verbo tem –s no final, usamos doesn’t)
Ted doesn’t study,DOES HE?
Simple Past: com verbos regulares e irregulares usamos didn’t.

You went to
Rio, DIDN’T YOU ?

Present Perfect

This/that + verbo = verbo auxiliar +
it
Ex.: This is
easy, isn’t it?
These / those + verbo = verbo
auxiliar + they

they?
Indefinites = auxiliar do
