Select the most appropriate alternative to replace the underlined segment in the given sentence.
They met yesterday, haven’t they?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. didn’t they?
- When the sentence is affirmative, the question tag becomes negative. But the tense of both remains the same.
- Thus, here the question tag should be written in simple past tense as well.
- Thus, "didn’t they?" is the correct substitution.
