Explicação:

As ''question tags'' são usadas para confirmar ou questionar uma determinada informação anteriormente mencionada em uma frase. (é como se fosse o nosso ''né?'')

A ''question tag'' sempre aparece no fim da sentença, separada por uma vírgula.

- A question tag tem que usar o mesmo verbo que está na primeira parte da frase, não se esquecendo dos auxiliares do - does - did e modal verbs, quando necessário.

- Se a sentença está na forma afirmativa, a question tag tem que ser na forma negativa.

- Se a sentença está na forma negativa, a question tag tem que ser na forma afirmativa.  

Exemplos em português:

Ele vai para casa, não vai? afirmativa - negativa

Ele não vai para casa, vai? negativa - afirmativa

Peter is going home, isn't he? afirmativa - negativa

They are not going to buy a new car, are they? negativa - afirmativa

Pedro doesn’t like broccoli, does he? → Pedro não gosta de brócolis, não é?

- Se a sentença não tem verbo to be, a question tag será feita usando o auxiliar DO - DOES para o presente e DID para o passado.

Paul likes to play golf, doesn't he? - afirmativa - negativa

Paul went to play golf, didn't he? - afirmativa passado - negativa

- Se a sentença tiver MODAL VERB , a question tag tem que ser feita usando a mesma modal verb.

She would like to go home now, wouldn't she?

We couldn't play soccer today, could we?

Quando a frase for na primeira pessoa do singular - I am, a question tag é feita com “are”, não com o “am”, porque o ''am'' não pode ser contraído com o ''not''.

I am a good student, aren't I?

I am going to London next week, aren't I?

I am late, aren't I?

Quando a frase for imperativa, a question tag deve usar WILL como auxiliar FORMAL  e WOULD - como auxiliar INFORMAL

Close the windows, will you?

Answer the phone, would you?

 

Quando usarmos LET’S na primeira frase, a question tag deve usar o auxiliar SHALL

Let’s study together tonight, shall we?

Let’s go out tomorrow night, shall we?
