Question Tag #2 (permalink) Tue Feb 20, 2007 6:48 am   Question Tag
 

Hello,
I'm not sure what your question is but when you are using question tags and statements, the general rule is:
Use a negative tag with a positive statement and a positive tag with a negative statement.
Example) She's from Korea, isn't she? In this case, there is a positive statement and a negative tag.
I hope this helps.
