In the repeated question we usually use the same tense and the opposite in terms of negative/positive of the main verb. So we have:

He will, won't he?

He won't, will he?

Hi there,

'a fraction of the cost' is it part of what you have to pay or is it something else like an idiom or some sort of phrase? Anyway that is what is meant by me.

As for 'don't pin me down with a label' it means don't blame me for something I haven't done, just because I usually do that type of thing.

ow how about that? Is it correct? Tell me its correct meaning.

Hi Alan, I know I am a bit lazy to join the forum and particularly can not take all test, But anyway ever thing here is highly useful. Tags are however complecated but your texts has clarified many complexities so far. Thanks. A small question. What is the TAG question of phrases such as "lets go"? I think it is "Shall we?" but I am not sure.

Best

Sorry about the delay. Yes. you are right.
