QUESTION TAGS
A question tag is known as question tail. Question tags are used in informal language. Question tags are short addition to sentences. We show Conclusion, Doubt, Certainty, Uncertainty etc. through Question Tags.
For example, in the sentence "You are Sameer, aren't you ?", the statement "You are Sameer" is turned into a question by the tag "aren't you".
