Explanation:

Tag questions are placed at the end of a sentence with the purpose of confirming the information stated in the sentence. The basic rule is: if the sentence is negative, the tag question is positive. If the sentence is positive (affirmative), the tag question is negative. Example: You love me, don't you?

The tag question is formed by the auxiliary verb and a pronoun that refers to the subject of the sentence. For instance, if the sentence talks about James (a man), the pronoun is "he". If the sentence is about Janine (a woman), it is "she". Examples: James is happy, isn't he? / Janine is happy, isn't she?

The auxiliary for the simple present is "do" for the persons "I, you, we, they", and "does" for "he she it". The auxiliary for the past is "did" for all persons.

If the sentence has the verb "to be", then "to be" is the auxiliary.

In "have / has got", the auxiliary is "have / has".

In "there + to be", the auxiliary is "to be", and the subject is "there".

With modal verbs such as "can, could, may, should", the modal verbs are the auxiliary.

Examples:

- You cook well, don't you?

- Ellen didn't go to school, did she?

- She is a chef, isn't she?

- I have got to talk less, haven't I?

- There is a woman waiting outside, isn't there?

- You can play the guitar, can't you?

Often adults show disrespect toward teenagers. Why do you think this happens? How does it affect the teenagers?

olga2289 [7]

In my opinion it;s because adults have a too big of an ego. They wall around with the impression that they're older and know more and we should just listen to them because of that. They feel the need to boss kids around. This affects the teenagers in a way that they get real bad attitudes and in some form, this is peer pressure. They no longer feel comfortable to talk or associate with their parent or any adult. <span />
