HELLO DEAR COLLEAGUES
Have a look at the question and tell me if I remember well : They must have taken the umbrella, haven �t they ? Currently it keeps me awake at night . Many thanks for your help. |

No, you use the first auxilliary verb in the tag. Thy must have taken the umbrella, mustn �t they? However, this is an awkward-sounding construction, so we would just find another way of asking it, such as "They must have taken the umbrella, don �t you think?" Bruce |
