three years ago I'm gonna go there

3:41

tomorrow

3:42

great the third way to create questions

3:44

is by using tag questions you might ask

3:47

you like sunny days right you can see

3:52

that the main part of the sentence you

3:53

like sunny days this is a statement this

3:56

is not a question but we're just adding

3:58

a tag question on the end right and when

4:02

we use these words we're just trying to

4:04

verify information so the only time that

4:08

you use a tag question is if you think

4:10

something but you're not quite sure so

4:13

you want to verify that your idea is

4:15

correct maybe you want to invite me to

4:18

eat some barbecue at your house so you

4:20

ask me you eat me right you think that I

4:25

eat meat but you want to verify

4:27

that information to make sure that it's

4:29

correct you don't want to invite me to

4:31

eat barbecue if I don't eat meat so you

4:33

asked me you eat meat right the

4:36

statement is you eat meat that's just a

4:39

statement it's not a question but then

4:41

you're adding the tag word right the tag

4:44

question right is pretty common but

4:47

there are other tech questions that are

4:48

a little more complicated so I like to

4:50

give you a quick tip about how to use
