Question

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
I am going to get an email with more details, __________ I?

A.

won’t

B.

don’t

C.

aren’t

D.

can't

Correct option is C


The correct option to fill in the blank is (c) aren’t.
· Explanation: In tag questions, the auxiliary verb from the main clause is repeated. Since the sentence begins with "I am going to...", the tag form would logically be "am I not?"
· However, in standard usage, the tag "aren’t I?" is customarily used instead of “am I not?” because “amn’t I?” is not acceptable in English.
Grammatical rule used:
· When the main clause starts with "I am", the commonly used question tag is "aren’t I?" even though it seems grammatically irregular.
· This is an accepted idiomatic exception in English.
Explanation in Hindi:
· “I am” वाक्य में प्रश्न टैग के रूप में “aren’t I?” का प्रयोग किया जाता है, जो एक व्याकरणिक अपवाद है लेकिन सामान्य और मान्य प्रयोग है।
Meanings of other options:
· (a) won’t:
· ❌ “Won’t I?” is used when the main clause uses “will”, not “am going to.”
· Hindi meaning: क्या मैं नहीं करूंगा?
· (b) don’t:
· ❌ Used with present simple, not with “am going to.”
· Hindi meaning: क्या मैं नहीं करता?
· (d) can't:
· ❌ Implies inability, not future intention.
· Hindi meaning: क्या मैं नहीं सकता?
