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]

Elden [556K]

Answer:

The first thing I do everyday is drink a cup of coffee, then I can begin the day with an alert mind. After I finish my coffee, I like to take a long walk to help my body stretch into the day and my mind relax. Once I get back from my morning walks, I usually take a shower, and then sit down in a nice quiet place to do some writing or painting (whichever I feel in the mood to do), but when I don't feel like doing anything creative, I'll just unwind by listening to music, and doing vocal exercises until everyone else wakes up. After that, I usually spend the day with my sister, driving around, and helping her with her daily tasks. My day slows down dramatically around five in the evening, that when I normally sit down with a cup of tea and watch television for a few hours. After that, I make dinner for everyone, and wait for them to go to bed. Once everyone is in bed, I like to proof read the more recent stories I've written for a couple hours until around ten post morning, then I go to bed.

I have to write a speech about my biggest pet peeve and I’m not sure how to begin with a hook. If you could help I’d appreciate
atroni [7]

Answer:

I always like to begin that kind of a speech with some way to relate to the listeners. For example, if you're writing about how much it annoys you when your sister leaves her clothes on the floor, you might begin by asking "How many of you have siblings?" and then continue to add on to that. It makes your audience feel more like you're talking <em>to </em>them, and not so much <em>at </em>them.
