2. Grammar
2.1. Question tags (Câu hỏi đuôi)
2.1.1. Form:

+ ,-,?
-,+?

Câu hỏi đuôi gồm 2 phần: phần chứa thông tin chính và phần đuôi, ngăn cách nhau bởi dấu phẩy ‘,’, ta trả
lời “Yes/No”. Thông thường khi phần chính ở dạng khẳng định thì phần đuôi ở thể phủ định và ngược lại.
e.g. This picture is a portrait, isn't it?
(Bức tranh này là tranh chân dung phải không?)
That man drives carefully, doesn't he?
(Chú đó lái xe cẩn thận nhỉ?)
This picture isn't a portrait, is it?
(Bức tranh này phải không là tranh chân dung đúng không nhỉ?)
That man doesn't drive carefully, does he?
(Chú đó chẳng lái xe cẩn thận gì nhỉ?).
Notes:
- Trong câu hỏi đuôi phần chính và phần đuôi phải cùng thì, tương ứng dụng động từ.
e.g. That man doesn't drive carefully, does he?
(Cùng thì hiện tại đơn, động từ thường)
This picture isn't a portrait, is it?
(Cùng thì hiện tại đơn, động từ to be)
- Chủ ngữ của phần đuôi là đại từ nhân xưng nên ta phải chọn đại từ nhân xưng tương ứng với chủ ngủ của
phần chính.
e.g. That man doesn't drive carefully, does he?
(That man = he)
Khi chủ ngữ về trước là đại từ bất định chỉ người (somebody, someone) thì phần đuôi ta dùng “they”, chỉ
vật (something, anything ...) ta dùng “it”.
e.g. Somebody had closed the door, hadn't they?
Something happened in this house, didn't it?
2.1.2. Use:
Câu hỏi đuôi có thể dùng để hỏi về thông tin mà ta chưa rõ hoặc chỉ để duy trì cuộc hội thoại (hỏi mặc dù
biết người nghe sẽ đồng ý với ta).
- Hỏi về thông tin mà ta chưa rõ:
e.g. They've moved here since last year, haven't they?
(Họ chuyển đến đây từ năm ngoái phải không?)
- Để duy trì cuộc hội thoại (hỏi mặc dù biết người nghe sẽ đồng ý với ta):
e.g. That student was impolite, wasn't she?
(Bạn học sinh đó bất lịch sự nhỉ?)
Notes: một số trường hợp đặc biệt của câu hỏi đuôi:
- Let's ... shall we?
e.g. Let's go to the cinema, shall we?
- Imperative
e.g. Help me carry this box, won't you?
Don't stop singing, will you?
- Negative
e.g. No one came up, did they?
= People didn't come up, did they?
- I am ..., aren't I?
e.g. I am a good leader, aren't I?
- This/That is
e.g. This/That is a hippo, isn't it?
2.2. Conditional sentences type 0 (câu điều kiện loại 0)
2.2.1. Form:
If/When + present tense, present tense/imperative
Or: Present tense/Imperative + if/when present tense

e.g. If/When you buy a motorbike, you also have to buy insurance.
(Nếu anh mua một chiếc xe máy, anh cũng phải mua bảo hiểm.)
Turn off the machine if/when you see the red button on it.
(Tắt cái máy đó khi cậu thấy nút đỏ ở trên nó.).
2.2.2. Use: Ta dùng câu điều kiện loại 0 để diễn tả chân lý hoặc điều mà ta cho là luôn đúng.

e.g. If you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius, it boils.


(Nếu bạn đun nước đến 100 độ C, nó sẽ sôi.)
Relax for a while when you feel tired. (Hãy thư
giãn một lúc khi con thấy mệt.)
3. Pronunciation
Intonation: questions tags (Ngữ điệu với câu hỏi đuôi)
Câu hỏi đuôi có thể dùng để hỏi về thông tin mà ta chưa rõ hoặc chỉ để duy trì cuộc hội thoại (hỏi mặc dù
biết người nghe sẽ đồng ý với ta).
- Khi hỏi về thông tin mà ta chưa rõ, ta sẽ lên giọng ở cuối câu:
e.g. They've moved here since last year, haven't they?!
(Họ chuyển đến đây từ năm ngoái phải không?)
- Để duy trì cuộc hội thoại (hỏi mặc dù biết người nghe sẽ đồng ý với ta), ta xuống giọng ở cuối câu:

(Bạn học sinh đó bất lịch sự nhỉ?).
