SEEKING OPINION.
For Senior Students.
Nageswar Rao. A
Nageswar Rao. A
Good morning. How are you? It is very cold today, isn’t it?
Nageswar Rao. A
Yes, it is. Man cannot keep at least this in his control. Hope you agree
with me, don’t you? How about your preparation?
Nageswar Rao. A
Please do not ask anything about my preparation.
You know the present political situation, don’t you?
We have lost too many working hours due to frequent bandh calls, haven’t we?
Nageswar Rao. A
A few politicians are like that, aren’t they? How do these
bandhs affect your preparation?
Nageswar Rao. A
If the examinations are postponed, then it may be difficult to get
admission in other universities.
Nageswar Rao. A
In our last meeting, you said that you decided to do MCA from our
college itself, didn’t you? Why do you worry about it?
Nageswar Rao. A
We should not be so self-centered. We think about those aspirants, who dream to continue their studies
abroad.
Nageswar Rao. A
Only a few people can hardly think of such things, can they? Everything gets settled, doesn’t
it?
Nageswar Rao. A
Let us hope so, shall we?
Nageswar Rao. A
Question tags too play an important role in our day to day
communications. We make a statement and often tag it on with a
yes/no type question as if we are seeking the other man’s opinion.
Nageswar Rao. A
The general rule is a negative tag to a positive statement and a positive tag to a
negative statement.
Nageswar Rao. A
If an “auxiliary” is present in the statement, then the tag takes that “auxiliary’ and suitable
‘pronoun’ and for a positive tag without n’t; and with n’t for a negative tag. If there is no
auxiliary ’do’; ‘does’; or ‘did’ does the job as per the tense of the sentence.
Nageswar Rao. A
Half negatives like “hardly, little, few rarely” etc. are treated as negative
statements and therefore take positive tags.
Nageswar Rao. A
A few, a little, take negative tags, as they convey positive sense. Requests and proposals take
positive tags.
Nageswar Rao. A
A few, a little, take negative tags, as they convey positive sense.
