Examples of tag questions structure

In a tag question, the speaker makes a statement, but is not completely certain of the truth, so he or she uses a tag question to verify the previous statement. Sentences using tag questions should have the main clause separated form the tag by a comma. The sentence will always end with a question mark.
For example:
  • There are only twenty-eight days in January, aren’t there?
  • It’s raining now, isn’t it?
  • The boys don’t have class tomorrow, do they?
  • You and I talked with the professor yesterday, didn’t we?
  • You won’t be leaving for another hour, will you?
  • Jill and John have been to USA, haven’t they?
