    Writer's Note

    Did you know you can use "Isn't it" as a question tag? What is a question tag anyway? A tag question is a short question added to a statement. The tag includes a pronoun and its matching form of the verb be, or auxiliary verb. If the tag question is negative, we shorten the phrase, or use a contraction with the auxiliary verb.

    你知道你可以使用「Isn't it」作為附加問句嗎?那麼,什麼是附加問句呢?附加問句是加在陳述句後的一個簡短問題。這個附加問句包含一個代名詞及其相應形式的be動詞或助動詞。如果附加問句是否定的,我們會縮短該短語,或與助動詞一起使用縮寫形式。

    Here are some examples of question tags with contractions.

    以下是帶有縮寫形式的「question tags」的例子。
    1. The restaurant just reopened, hasn't it?
    2. 餐廳剛剛重新開業,不是嗎?
    3. She's got the most beautiful eyes, doesn't she?
    4. 她有著最美麗的眼睛,不是嗎?
    5. He plays the guitar effortlessly, doesn't he?
    6. 他彈吉他非常輕鬆,不是嗎?
    7. It's a great movie, isn't it?
    8. 這是一部很棒的電影,不是嗎?
    9. They're a great pair of jeans, aren't they?
    10. 它們是很棒的牛仔褲,aren't they?

    Notice how the question tag is added at the end of a sentence. Notice how the tone of the question differs from using it at the beginning of your sentence. Question tags are a great way to add variety to the way you form questions.

    請注意問題附加問句是如何添加在句子的末尾。注意使用附加問句時,語氣與將其放在句首時有所不同。附加問句是為您的疑問句增添多樣性的一種好方法。
