Wenn man eine Aussage betonen will, kann man eine Bestätigungsfrage benutzen. Im Deutschen wird dafür z. B. ein …, oder? verwendet.

Im Englischen wird dafür ein Question Tag angehängt:


Kian is an Irish name, isn't it? - Yes, it is.

We can do this, can't we? - Yes, we can!

You have done your homework,haven't you? - Of course I have!


Wenn die Aussage positiv war, wird der question tag negativ. Bei einer verneinten Aussage aber positiv:


You haven't brought your bag,have you? - Of course I have!

Kaden isn't Irish, is it? - But it is. It means "battle" in Irish and Scottish.


Dabei wird der question tag immer aus dem Hilfsverb des Aussagesatzes und dem Personalpronomen des Subjekts gebildet.

Bei Vollverben im Simple Present verwendet man do.


You play football, don't you? - Yes, I do.

You don't want this sandwich, do you? - You can have it.
