45+ Soal Question Tag Lengkap dengan Kunci Jawabannya

Hi, sobat!

Tahukah kamu apa itu question tag? Ya, question tag atau dikenal juga dengan tag question merupakan suatu pertanyaan singkat yang biasanya ditambahkan pada akhir sebuah kalimat atau pernyataan. Question tag ini pada dasarnya berfungsi untuk meminta kejelasan atau meminta persetujuan terkait kebenaran suatu informasi kepada seseorang yang menjadi lawan bicara. Oleh karena itu, question tag seringkali disampaikan dengan adanya intonasi atau penekanan kata.

Question tag, dalam bahasa Indonesia, dapat diartikan “kan, bukan kan, iya kan, yuk, atau dong?”. Sebagai pertanyaan singkat, question tag diakhiri dengan question mark atau tanda tanya “?”. Selain itu, question tag sendiri terbentuk dari: “linking verb, auxiliary verb, atau modal + Subject?”. Adapun linking verb (be) yang digunakan dalam question taq, seperti is, am, are, was, dan were. Sedangkan auxiliary verb yang digunakan dalam tag question, seperti do, does, did, have, has, atau had. Kemudian, question taq juga disusun dengan modal auxiliary verb, seperti will, shall, can, dan lain-lain.

Question tag, berdasarkan struktur katanya, dibedakan menjadi dua yaitu 1) positive question tag, dan 2) negative question tag.

Positive Question Tag

Positive question tag merupakan salah satu jenis question tag yang dibentuk dari: “linking verb, auxiliary verb, atau modal + Subject?”. Positive question tag ini umumnya menyertai negative statement atau pernyataan negatif. Sementara itu, subject pada positive question tag biasanya berupa subject pronoun atau kata ganti subject seperti I, you, they, we, he, she, atau it.

Adapun pola kalimat positive question tag adalah sebagai berikut.

• Everybody does the exercise at the morning, didn’t they? [Setiap orang berolahraga di pagi hari, kan?]

c. Jika subjeknya everything, something, dan nothing, ataupun uncountable noun (kata benda yang tidak bisa dihitung) maka gunakan “it” dalam question tagnya. Contoh:

• Everything should be well-prepared, shouldn’t it? [Semua seharusnya sudah disiapkan dengan baik, kan?]
• Nothing is true, is it? [tak ada yang benar, kan?]

d. Jika kalimatnya berupa perintah (Imperative: Verb 1 ...!) atau larangan (Prohibition: Don’t verb 1 ...!), gunakan “will you” untuk question tag-nya. Contoh:

• She would had passed the exam if she had studied hard, wouldn’t she? [Dia akan sudah lulus ujian itu seandainya dia belajar dengan sungguh-sungguh, iya kan?]
