Tag questions are questions used to confirm something whose answer is an affirmation or negation (yes or no). They are formed by adding a contradictory tag to the end of a sentence with the respective auxiliary verb. A negative tag must always be in its short form (don't, doesn't, can't).
Positive sentence, negative tag question:
Negative sentence, positive tag question:
If we do not identify the auxiliary verb, we use the present simple auxiliary (do, does).
There is an exception to the tag question rule, there is no negative contraction for the verb am, so use aren't:
❌ I am ready, am not I?
✅ I am ready, aren't I?

You’re coming to the party with us, aren’t you?
If the statement is positive, use a negative question tag. You like pizza, don’t you?
If the statement is negative, use a positive question tag. You don’t like broccoli, do you?
If there is an auxiliary verb in the sentence, we use it to create the question tag. You have traveled to Tokyo, haven’t you?
Sometimes there isn’t an auxiliary verb. You like broccoli, don’t you?

Are used when we expect the listener to agree with us, are more common in speaking than writing.
The intonation is matter, falling intonation when we are almost sure and rising intonation when we are less sure.
If the statement is positive, we use a negative question tag, and if the statement is negative, we use a positive question tag.
If there is any auxiliary verb in the sentence, we use it to create the question tag. If there’s not an auxiliary verb we use “Do” or “Doesn’t”.
With the pronoun “I” we use aren’t to create the question tag.
