Dear teachers,
Can you tell me whether we should agree with the main clause or subordinate clause when we have we think in the main clause?
eg. We think they have finshed their homework, ____
A. haven't they? B. don't they?
Which is right?
Thank you! |

Here:"don't we?"
And with the main clause in general.
Best wishes,
Ian
