1 00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:21,280 Hello everybody, how are you? I hope you all are okay, and you're spending this time in cooking, learning, reading, playing, and doing many different things. We have to stay at home, but it's another opportunity to do different things. 2 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:33,280 As you know, in English we are in unit number 6 and we are learning the next point that we have to learn is that related to tag questions, right? 3 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:43,280 At the very beginning, tag questions seem something really difficult because we have to change the positive into negative or the negative into positive 4 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,759 positive but once that you understand how to create them how to use them them sorry 5 00:03:49,759 --> 00:03:57,360 it's something really really easy so i have prepared this presentation for you but i just 6 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:03,280 wanted wanted to send you the video with the explanation because i think it could be easier 7 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:08,879 for you to learn that point of the unit so let's going to start with the presentation 8 00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:22,120 tag questions unit six so why do we use the tag questions or when do we have to use them so we 9 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:28,600 use the tag questions when we think that people will agree with us we are talking with a friend 10 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:36,939 and we are learning somebody we have we are watching someone which is dancing and say they 11 00:04:36,939 --> 00:04:43,000 sing well don't they so it's a group of sinners and we think that they are good 12 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:48,720 singers with sinners sorry but we just want someone to agree with us and we 13 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:55,439 ask don't they that don't they that appears after a coma is the tag question 14 00:04:55,439 --> 00:05:05,079 right this is one of the uses it has it have and the other one is when they we 15 00:05:05,079 --> 00:05:10,980 sorry we use them to ask if we are correct Lucas is your teacher isn't he 16 00:05:10,980 --> 00:05:19,360 so we are almost sure that Lucas is your teacher but we just want to ask you in 17 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,819 case we are wrong so we want someone telling us that Lucas is your teacher so 18 00:05:24,819 --> 00:05:31,540 that's the reason why we finish the sentence with the isn't he right that 19 00:05:31,540 --> 00:05:41,600 the isn't he that after the coma is a tag question right it's going to see 20 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:51,040 how to create a tag question after a sentence then if the sentence is 21 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:57,699 positive right the sentence of before the coma is positive the tag question is 22 00:05:57,699 --> 00:06:02,319 going to be negative right it's going to see some examples you will understand 23 00:06:02,319 --> 00:06:17,910 it now with examples here we have the examples right and we have three 24 00:06:17,910 --> 00:06:25,649 sentences okay you are from Barcelona aren't you we are almost sure that I am 25 00:06:25,649 --> 00:06:30,329 almost sure that you are from Barcelona but I want to make sure that you really 26 00:06:30,329 --> 00:06:38,089 I do are from Barcelona so you are from Barcelona is an affirmative sentence 27 00:06:38,089 --> 00:06:45,050 right which is used in the present simple but with the to be verb right if 28 00:06:45,050 --> 00:06:50,810 it's an affirmative sentence the question tag which is the one after the 29 00:06:50,810 --> 00:06:59,189 comma will be negative you are affirmative aren't is negative if you 30 00:06:59,189 --> 00:07:04,189 see we want we don't change the subject you and you is the same subject subject 31 00:07:04,189 --> 00:07:11,670 But we have changed the positive form of the to be verb into a negative form, right? 32 00:07:11,769 --> 00:07:15,170 So, the tag question is the one after the coma. 33 00:07:15,750 --> 00:07:18,269 Let's go into see the other example. 34 00:07:18,829 --> 00:07:21,769 He is cooking a cake. 35 00:07:22,310 --> 00:07:22,970 Isn't he? 36 00:07:23,449 --> 00:07:33,470 Right here, we have a present continue, but what we want to pay attention, sorry, what we have to do is paying attention to the is. 37 00:07:33,470 --> 00:07:41,750 he is so he is not going to change we're going to continue using the he but here is affirmative and 38 00:07:41,750 --> 00:07:49,310 we have to put it into negative is isn't he he right and we change the order as you can see 39 00:07:49,310 --> 00:07:57,350 right and let's going to see the next example they are doing their homework aren't they here 40 00:07:57,350 --> 00:08:05,750 we have day and day is the subject it doesn't change but we have here a positive sentence 41 00:08:05,750 --> 00:08:11,829 and we have to turn it into a negative one so the tag question the one after the comma 42 00:08:11,829 --> 00:08:18,389 will be in negative in the three sentences because the three sentences are in present 43 00:08:18,389 --> 00:08:24,949 sorry are in affirmative and we have to do the three tag questions the one after the commas 44 00:08:24,949 --> 00:08:34,970 the one after the comma in negative and what's happened with the sentence is negative all right 45 00:08:34,970 --> 00:08:43,549 sorry I move it a lot we will come back to them here yeah right if the sentence is negative then 46 00:08:43,549 --> 00:08:50,669 the tag question it's going to be positive let's going to see the examples we are gonna have a look 47 00:08:50,669 --> 00:09:02,429 on them here yeah right he doesn't like fish does he he doesn't it's negative 48 00:09:02,429 --> 00:09:09,169 sentence with them it's a negative sentence in simple present right so 49 00:09:09,169 --> 00:09:16,149 doesn't because it's he remember he she and it we use do or doesn't he doesn't 50 00:09:16,149 --> 00:09:21,470 like fish this is the sentence which is in negative so the tag question the one 51 00:09:21,470 --> 00:09:27,649 the comma it's going to be in positive in this case and we don't have to change 52 00:09:27,649 --> 00:09:32,990 the subject it's the same subject in each sentence the next example she 53 00:09:32,990 --> 00:09:41,789 didn't do the homework did she so didn't is past right when we want to make a 54 00:09:41,789 --> 00:09:48,350 sentence in past in simple past we use didn't if it's negative of course right 55 00:09:48,350 --> 00:09:55,250 so didn't negative so that question is going to be in positive did and she it 56 00:09:55,250 --> 00:10:02,269 is the subject doesn't change she didn't do the homework did she and what about 57 00:10:02,269 --> 00:10:11,090 the last one they don't have any car today we want to know we want to yes we 58 00:10:11,090 --> 00:10:15,889 want to know if they have the car so we think they don't have but we ask with 59 00:10:15,889 --> 00:10:20,750 the question that question is the same doesn't matter right they don't have any 60 00:10:20,750 --> 00:10:30,529 car they don't have this is a present simple sentence in negative don't so we 61 00:10:30,529 --> 00:10:37,529 have to change into positive do we use don't because it's day right remember 62 00:10:37,529 --> 00:10:49,110 with I you we and they we used to don't write or do so here we have they don't 63 00:10:49,110 --> 00:11:00,809 have any car today that's going to continue with the presentation here you 64 00:11:00,809 --> 00:11:08,549 are gonna have some other examples right in the video so this is a video at 65 00:11:08,549 --> 00:11:12,870 YouTube video that you click on it or click on here you will watch the video 66 00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:20,409 is the same topic tag questions sorry but it's a different explanation from a 67 00:11:20,409 --> 00:11:25,769 different person but it can be positive if you want to learn more or to just 68 00:11:25,769 --> 00:11:33,549 have a look on it it's an interactive video too right so as I told you if the 69 00:11:33,549 --> 00:11:41,970 sentence is in present simple the tag question will have do don't does 70 00:11:41,970 --> 00:11:52,710 does or doesn't do or don't for I you they we right and does is positive 71 00:11:52,710 --> 00:12:01,230 doesn't is negative when when we have he she or it right but let's going to have 72 00:12:01,230 --> 00:12:08,309 a look yes because as you know the present simple with it to be birth works 73 00:12:08,309 --> 00:12:14,730 in a different way so we just have to change as in the first example he is 74 00:12:14,730 --> 00:12:19,350 told isn't he here we have a sentence which is in simple present person simple 75 00:12:19,350 --> 00:12:26,009 is the same with it to be birth so we don't have to use do don't that's or 76 00:12:26,009 --> 00:12:30,870 doesn't we did to be birth in the present simple we have to you just dead 77 00:12:30,870 --> 00:12:36,269 to be where I am you are remember and if it's positive negative is negative 78 00:12:36,269 --> 00:12:41,789 positive right i just want you to pay attention to that point because you know it but sometimes 79 00:12:41,789 --> 00:12:49,470 you forgot about it and um something difficult for you when you don't pay attention to the fact 80 00:12:49,470 --> 00:12:54,669 that the two beaver works in a different way so if the present simple is the sentence sorry 81 00:12:54,669 --> 00:13:01,629 is in past simple we will make the tag question with did or didn't why simple it's very easy 82 00:13:01,629 --> 00:13:12,190 because we always use did or didn't when we want to make sentences did you buy did you drive the 83 00:13:12,190 --> 00:13:20,429 car right or we use didn't when we want to put a past simple sentence into the negative form 84 00:13:21,309 --> 00:13:27,710 right so if when so if we are doing tough questions we are going to use always did 85 00:13:27,710 --> 00:13:48,809 If it's affirmative, did. If it's negative, didn't, right? That's the reason why we always have to make the questions with did or didn't. You made the sandwich, didn't you? As you can see here, the made is in past, is the to make, mate, mate, a verb, ¿vale? El verbo hacer, formar también, right? 86 00:13:48,809 --> 00:14:15,809 You made the sandwich, ¿vale? That is past simple. How do I have to ask a question in a past simple using did or didn't? You made is an affirmative sentence, right? So I have to use a negative tag question, the one after the comma. The tag question must be negative in this case, right? And I have to use didn't. 87 00:14:15,809 --> 00:14:27,629 that's going to continue with can or can't think the next point about yes 88 00:14:27,629 --> 00:14:35,250 right if you when you we use the modal verb can or can't be much can't can't 89 00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:39,690 negative we just have to chain it into affirmative of negative if the sentence 90 00:14:39,690 --> 00:14:43,690 is negative we will do it affirmative if the sentence is affirmative the tag 91 00:14:43,690 --> 00:14:47,350 question will be in negative remember the tag question is the one after the 92 00:14:47,350 --> 00:14:54,190 coma right the example is you can't reach it no puedes alcanzarlo vale you 93 00:14:54,190 --> 00:15:00,129 can't reach it can you right it's like the example when we are in speaking in 94 00:15:00,129 --> 00:15:04,730 Spanish when we are talking about for instance and you're gonna go to the 95 00:15:04,730 --> 00:15:11,590 party vas a ir a la fiesta no you know preguntamos when we ask vas a ir a la fiesta no 96 00:15:11,590 --> 00:15:20,049 o hiciste los deberes no that no say no que hacemos that means that we want as 97 00:15:20,049 --> 00:15:25,750 someone telling us that of course to read it is the tough question in 98 00:15:25,750 --> 00:15:31,330 Spanish right in espanol seria nuestra tag question vale but we don't have we 99 00:15:31,330 --> 00:15:36,190 always have the no no es cierto no es asi right but here is that's that's the 100 00:15:36,190 --> 00:15:40,529 meaning of the tag questions you can reach it can you no puedes alcanzarlo 101 00:15:40,529 --> 00:15:49,840 with this right it's the meaning of the tag question let's going to move to the last point 102 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:58,639 of our presentation which is an exercise i want you to make or to do sorry i make it to do it um 103 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:14,639 sorry pass this one right is a google form questioner um it's not an exam so the first 104 00:16:14,639 --> 00:16:22,320 thing i want to tell you is that it's not an exam but it helps me a lot because i can see the type 105 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:29,759 of sentences that you understand perfectly the ones that you don't understand i can see if you 106 00:16:29,759 --> 00:16:35,759 are receiving the information and send it to the families i can see if you have the media to create 107 00:16:35,759 --> 00:16:44,000 to do the the activities so it's not an exam right um because well someone can help you so it's not 108 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:52,879 an exam but um it helps it helps me to know the point in which you are at that moment if you are 109 00:16:52,879 --> 00:16:58,480 learning it if you have doubts if you understand it if you don't understand it if you are reading 110 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:06,799 the emails if you are not reading them so it's something that you should do if you don't have 111 00:17:06,799 --> 00:17:13,759 if you don't want to do it i mean you don't have to but it's something positive for you and for me 112 00:17:13,759 --> 00:17:22,000 and for all of us right because everybody is doing an extra job if your parents you teachers and uh 113 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:30,240 well it's a way to know if it's working right as in the other ones that i send you um please don't 114 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:37,680 write your name just the initial letter of your name and surname and your class fifth a fifth b 115 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:43,200 and the number class that you have because for me it's really easy when i'm reading oh this is from 116 00:17:43,200 --> 00:18:10,200 I know that Eunice is understanding the exercise, and I don't like you writing your names on Google things.
