How do you use question tags to seek clarification?

To use question tags to seek clarification, you add a short question at the end of a statement to confirm or seek agreement from the listener. The question tag is usually formed by using the opposite form of the main statement. For example, if the statement is "You like coffee," the question tag would be "don't you?" This prompts the listener to respond and clarify their agreement or disagreement with the statement.
