Что такое разделительный вопрос?
Это особый тип вопроса, который состоит из двух частей: утверждения и короткого "хвостика" (tag). Он используется для уточнения информации, выражения сомнения или получения подтверждения от собеседника.
Золотое правило: Если утверждение положительное → хвостик отрицательный
Если утверждение отрицательное → хвостик положительный
Утверждение + , + вспом. глагол + not + местоимение ?
Примеры:
You speak English, don't you?She is a doctor, isn't she?They have finished, haven't they?He can swim, can't he?Утверждение - , + вспом. глагол + местоимение ?
