Answer:

Question tags turn a statement into a question. They're often used for checking information that we think we know is true. They're made using an auxiliary verb (for example: be or have) and a subject pronoun (for example: I, you, she).

Explanation:

Some examples -- though there are a zillion possibilities -- .....

The sky is blue, <u>isn't it</u>?

You don't like me, <u>do you</u>?

We're leaving at 4:00, <u>aren't we</u>?

Answer:

A question tag (also known as question tail) is a grammatical structure in which a declarative or an imperative statement is turned into a question by the addition of an interrogative fragment (the "tag"). For example, in the sentence "You're John, aren't you?", the statement "You're John" is turned into a question by the tag "aren't you".[1]

The term "question tag" is generally preferred by British grammarians, while their American counterparts prefer "tag question".[2]

What quality does the spider signify, according to the Osage tribe??
Katen [24]
Spiders were important creatures in Native American mythology. They frequently appeared in the myths of several Native American tribes, including the Navajo, the Hopi, and the Lenape.

Depending on the tribe, the spider could be a trickster character, but most often they were seen as benevolent creatures associated with intelligence. Native Americans used weaving in their daily lives, and, because spiders are great weavers themselves, the Native Americans shared a special connection to them.

In the Osage tribe, they had a particular story called "The Spider and the People." In this story, the chief goes out to find a symbol for his people. He is following some tracks when he stumbles right into a gigantic spider web.

The spider questions him about what he is doing, and the chief explains he is looking for a symbol for his people. The spider says she could be a symbol for his people, but the chief initially dismisses this idea. He does not believe a spider would be a good symbol for his people because spiders are so small and, in his mind, inconsequential.

The spider corrects him. She explains that although she is strong, she is patient. She does not need to go out and catch her food -- she is patient and the food comes to her. She explains that patience is a good thing for people to have, and therefore she would be a good symbol for his people.

The chief considers the spider's words and realizes the spider is correct. The chief was rushing along and ran right into the web. The spider, who was patient, caught a chief without even needing to move. Therefore, the chief agreed, and the spider became a symbol for his people. 

As a result, spiders are a symbol of patience.
