- Nếu câu nói trước dấu phẩy là câu khẳng định, câu hỏi đuôi phải ở thể phủ định.
- Nếu câu nói trước dấu phẩy là câu phủ định, câu hỏi đuôi phải ở thể khẳng định

*Sau đây là một số dạng câu hỏi đuôi:

1. S + V, don't / doesn't / didn't + S ?
Chú ý : Chủ ngữ (S) ở đuôi phải là một trong 7 đại từ nhân xưng (It, we, I, he, she,they,
you).
Ex : Lan goes to school, doesn't she ?
2. S + Be, Be + not + S ?*
Ex: The flowers are beautiful, aren't they ?
3. S + TĐTKK + V, TĐTKK + not +S ?*
Ex: Lan can put a pen in your bag, can't she ?
4. S + have / has + PP , have/ has + not + S ?
TĐTKK : Trợ động từ khiếm khuyết
Khi chủ ngữ là everyone, everybody, *someone, somebody, everything, something. thì ở

*Khi chủ ngữ có nothing, noone, nobody, seldom, rarely. hardly, never thì câu hỏi đuôi ở
dạng khẳng định.
