As well as tag questions with ma, tag questions can also be formed using 不. This is done with a positive-negative question.
The basic structure is:
Verb + 不 + Verb
This can then be attached to the end of a sentence to form a tag question. Tag questions seek confirmation or acceptance of what has been said. In English, "right?" and "OK?" are often used as tag questions.
Some examples of tag questions with 不 in Chinese:
- 咱们去咖啡店，好不好？
- 他是你的老板，是不是？
- 你姓王，对不对？
