LEARN THIS! Reply questions and question tags
a In reply questions and question tags, we use auxiliary verbs (do, have, would, etc.) or the verb be.
b We can use reply questions to respond to a statement. They express interest or surprise. Reply questions usually get a rising intonation.
'We're nearly at the hotel. 'Are we?"
'You didn't tell me. "Didn't I?'
c We can use a question tag when we want somebody to confirm what we are saying. Question tags to confirm usually get a falling intonation.
You booked the hotel, didn't you?
We aren't lost, are we?
