Na Landigo se dnes zaměříme na krátké otázky na konci věty – tzv. tázací dovětky (např. ...aren't you? ...do I? ...can't he?).
Tázací dovětky – procvičování:
You are on holiday, aren't you? = Jste na dovolené, že?
You are on holiday, aren't you?
|
You aren't on holiday, are you?
|
Tázací dovětky (question tags) často použijeme, pokud se chceme ujistit, že je něco skutečně pravda. Tázací dovětky odpovídají českému ...že? ...že ano? ...viď? apod.:

|
Alex neumí vařit, že (ne)? |

Po kladné větě použijeme záporný dovětek:

Po záporné větě použijeme kladný dovětek:
