Questions & Negatives

Tag questions and indirect questions

简介

附加疑问句（tag questions）是英语会话的一大特色，尤其在英式英语中特别常见。它们是加在陈述句后面的短问句，用来确认信息或寻求认同："It's nice, isn't it?"

间接疑问句在礼貌请求和正式场合中不可或缺。不直接问"Where is the station?"，而是说"Could you tell me where the station is?"——注意语序变了。

中文里我们用"是不是？""对吧？"来做类似的确认，比英语简单多了。英语的附加疑问句要根据动词变化（is → isn't, can → can't），需要多练习。掌握了这些问句形式，你的英语会更地道、更得体。
