反義疑問句的回答及特殊情況
對反意疑問句的回答，無論問題的提法如何，如果事實(shí)是肯定的，就用yes，事實(shí)是否定的，就要用no。要特別注意陳述句部分是否定結(jié)構(gòu)，反意疑問句部分用肯定式提問時(shí)，回答yes或no與漢語正好相反。這種省略回答的yes要譯成“不”，no要譯成“是”。
例：—He likes playing football, doesn't he? 他喜歡踢足球，是嗎？
—Yes, he does. / No, he doesn't. 是的。/ 不是。
—His sister didn't attend the meeting, did she? 他妹妹沒有參加會議，是嗎？
—Yes, she did. / No, she didn't. 不，她參加了。/ 是的，她沒參加。
