“……，好吗？”

HSK 2Lesson 8
The Tag Question "……，好吗?"
结构Pattern
建议/请求 Suggestion / Request好吗？
我们一起去吃饭好吗？
你等等我好吗？
明天再来好吗？
解释Explanation

先说一个建议或者请求，再在后面加上“，好吗？”，问对方同意不同意。这样说比较客气。同意可以回答“好”“好的”“好啊”；不同意的时候，常常说明原因。

First make a suggestion or request, then add "，好吗?" at the end to ask whether the other person agrees: "..., OK?" / "..., all right?". It sounds polite and friendly, not like an order. To agree, answer 好, 好的 or 好啊. To disagree, people usually give a reason rather than a flat 不好. 可以吗? works the same way when asking for permission.
