QUESTION TAG PERTANYAAN BEREKOR DAN GERUND

Question tag merupakan bentuk pertanyaan berekor yang fungsinya untuk mempertegas suatu pernyataan

Syarat utama dalam question tag adalah:

• Bilamana kalimat pernyataan (kalimat mula-mula) dinyatakan dalam bentuk positif, maka tag (ekor)-nya harus dalam bentuk negatif.
• Bilamana kalimat pernyataan (kalimat mula-mula) dinyatakan dalam bentuk negatif, maka tag (ekor)-nya harus dalam bentuk positif.

• mengandung auxiliary
• tidak mengandung auxiliary

Kalimat tidak mengandung auxiliary

S + V2 + O,do/does not + S ? S + V2 + O,did not + S ? S + do/does/did not + V +O, do/does/did + S ?
