I am older to you ________.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) - aren't I?
Complete sentence: "I am older than you, aren't I?"
Explanation:
- A question tag is used to confirm or check information.
- Since the main clause is positive ("I am older"), the question tag should be negative.
- "Aren't I?" is the appropriate question tag to use with the statement.
Incorrect options:
- "Aren't you?" would address the listener, not the speaker.
- "Aren't we?" is incorrect as it refers to a group, not an individual comparison.
- "Can't I?" does not fit the context.
