Inversion of sentences.
Can anybody tell me how to invert those particular sentences ? I think i have it wrong and unlike the easier sentences, with inversion im sort of bashing my head against the wall with those ones.
Give me a hand,Will you ? Give me a hand. Could you ?
I’m positively the best friend you’ve ever had, Arent I ?
You’d rather she never called, Would’nt You ?
Let’s forget about it already, Should’nt We ?
Top answer
These aren't inversions; they're tag questions. Give me a hand, will you? I’m positive I'm the best friend you’ve ever had, aren't I?
- These aren't inversions; they're tag questions.
- Give me a hand, will you?
- I’m positive I'm the best friend you’ve ever had, aren't I?
- The problem here is you are checking with the other person to see if you are positive, not if you are the best friend.
- You’d rather she never called, wouldn't you ?

I wouldn't call it inversion exactly, but I think they want you to rearrange the sentences removing the tag questions.
Give me a hand, will you? > Will you give me a hand?
Like that. However, note that I don't know for sure what they want you to do.
