2. Giải thích:
- Các câu hỏi đuôi (tag questions) được hình thành dựa trên quy tắc: nếu câu chính là khẳng định thì câu hỏi đuôi sẽ là phủ định và ngược lại.
- Ví dụ, trong câu "You are hungry" (Bạn đói), câu hỏi đuôi sẽ là "aren't you?" (phải không?).
- Các động từ trợ động (auxiliary verbs) và đại từ (pronouns) trong câu chính được sử dụng để tạo ra câu hỏi đuôi.
- Một số trường hợp đặc biệt như "I'm overweight" sẽ trở thành "aren't I?" và "Let's go" sẽ trở thành "shall we?".
- Câu hỏi đuôi giúp xác nhận thông tin hoặc tìm kiếm sự đồng ý từ người nghe.
