Title of the paper : Question Formation, Question Tags and Short Answers: A constructive way to Enhance Communicative Competence

Abstract: The present paper has a focus on some of the common errors our students make while using English, particularly in their speech. The major error is seen in the use of question forms and tag questions. The reason for this can be seen in their transferring the ideas from their mother tongue and translating it ad verbatim into English. This causes a genuine problem for the teacher and the paper introduces a few activities that can help us remedy this situation in our classrooms.

Keywords : Question forms, Tag questions, Communicative Competence.
