Dear pupils

From now on,I'll try to provide you with one question followed by one answer at a time

for preparing for the examination

Question

What is a tag question ?

Answer

It is a short question which we put at the end of the sentence

If the intonation of the tag question is down,the aim of the question is to ask for confirmation but if the intonation is up,the aim of the tag question is to get information

Wait for a new question with a new answer

Hello,dear

Question

When does intonation in question tags go up and when does it go down ?

Answer

When the speaker knows the answer and he just wants confirmation,the intonation goes down

Example

The teacher: The classroom is very hot,isn't it ?

The intonation in the question tag here goes down because the teacher knows that the classroom is hot

and he wants confirmation from his pupils.That's why he asks the question tag with a falling intonation

Now,consider this short dialogue

Teacher: You have two brothers,don't you ?

A new pupil: No,Sir.I have just one

Here,the teacher asks the question tag with a rising intonation because he doesn't know how many

brothers the new pupil has.So,he asks the question tag seeking information not confirmation

ابدأ جملة الأمر بفعل دون استعمال الفاعل ثم أتمم ما تبقى من الجملة أما في النهي ابدأ بكلمة Don't ثم الفعل ثم أتمم الجملة
