How do you use question tags to seek confirmation?

To use question tags to seek confirmation, you add a short question at the end of a statement. The question tag should have the opposite form of the statement, with a positive statement having a negative question tag and vice versa. For example, if the statement is "You like coffee," the question tag would be "don't you?" This seeks confirmation from the listener by inviting them to agree or disagree with the statement.
