TAG FORMATION

English for Today by Ganiu Abisoye Bamgbose (Dr GAB)

TAG FORMATION

  1. When there is no auxiliary verb in a sentence, do, does or did forms the tag:
    GAB teaches daily- doesn’t he?
    They know one another- don’t they?
    They arrived late- didn’t they?
    He dropped it here- didn’t he?
  2. Has, have and had form the tag when they are used with another verb but do, does or did forms the tag when has, have and had are used alone:
    He has finished- hasn’t he?
    He has money- doesn’t he?
    … to be continued.
