Question tags - uitleg

• Staat er een vorm van to be in de zin (am - is - are - was - were) dan herhaal je deze variant.
• Maak bij een bevestigende zin (+) een negatieve tag (-) en andersom. Denk aan de batterij!

Voorbeelden:
You are a boy, aren't you?

She isn't home, is she?

• Staan er meerdere werkwoorden in de zin, dan herhaal je altijd het eerste werkwoord

Voorbeeld:
We can go home now, can't we?

We shouldn't do this, should we

Question tags - uitleg

• Staan er niet meerdere werkwoorden in en geen vorm van to be? Dan gebruik je do of does.
• Does gebruik je als het gaat om he/she/it/Jack - Do gebruik je bij I-you-we-they-my parents

Voorbeelden:

My sister plays computer games, doesn't she?
(Waarom? Er is maar 1 werkwoord, en dat is geen be. Dus je moet do/does gebruiken. Er staat 'My sister', dus daarom does. De zin is +, dus mijn tag moet -. Doesn't she

He goes to school, doesn't he?

My parents read a book every night, don't they?

Let op:

Hoofdzin ontkennend --> tag bevestigend

BV. He isn't a good guy, is he?
                   -                                 +

Let op:

Hoofdzin bevestigend --> tag ontkennend

BV. He's a good guy, isn't he?

                   +                          -

Het woord not / n't moet dus altijd in de zin staan!
