反意疑問句是英語四大問句之一，它是由一個陳述句加上一個短問句而構成的。反意疑問句的基本構成形式是：陳述句+動詞（肯定或否定）+主語？如：
①She often has lunch at school, doesn’t she? ②You don’t like sports, do you?
使用反意疑問句要注意以下若干對應規則：
一、 反意疑問句中問句部分的動詞與陳述部分的動詞在語氣上成相反的對應關系，即：
肯定+否定？ 否定+肯定？如：
①You can’t do it, can you? ②They are very late for the meeting, aren’t they?
二、 反意疑問句中問句部分的動詞與陳述部分的動詞種類要對應一致。如：
①He has supper at home every day, doesn’t he? （不能用hasn’t he?）
②They have known the matter, haven’t they? （不能用don’t they?）
三、 反意疑問句中問句部分的動詞在時態上應和陳述部分的時態一致。如：
①They will go to town soon, won’t they?（不能用don’t they?或 aren’t they?）
②He works very hard, doesn’t he?（不能用didn’t he?或won’t he?）
四、 反意疑問句的陳述部分含有由un-, im-, in-, dis-, 等否定意義的前綴構成的詞語時，陳述部分要視為肯定含義，問句部分用否定形式。如：
①Your father is unhappy, isn’t he?（不能用is he?）
②The man is dishonest, isn’t he? （不能用is he?）
③It is impossible to learn English without remembering more words, isn’t it?（不能用is it ?）
五、反意疑問句的陳述部分帶有little, few, never, hardly, seldom等否定意義的詞時，問句部分用肯定式。如：
①She never tells a lie, does she?（不用doesn’t she?）
②He was seldom late, was he?（不用wasn’t he?）
六、反意疑問句的陳述部分為I am……時，問句部分習慣上用aren’t I？表示。如：

七、反意疑問句的陳述部分為I(We) think(believe, suppose, consider) + that從句時，問句部分的動詞及主語與that從句內的動詞和主語保持一致。如：
①I think that he has done his best, hasn’t he?
②We think that English is very useful, isn’t it? （不用don’t we?）
八、反意疑問句的陳述部分為I(We) don’t think(believe, suppose, consider)+ that從句時，從句為否定意義，問句部分的動詞和主語仍與that從句保持一致且用肯定式。如：
①I don’t think that you can do it, can you? （不用do I?）
②We don’t believe that the news is true, is it? （不用do we?）
九、反意疑問句的陳述部分為非第一人稱主語+ think(believe, suppose, consider) + that從句時，問句部分的動詞和主語與陳述部分的主句動詞和主語保持一致。如：
①They all think that English is very important, don’t they? （不用isn’t it?）
