Don’t chew panmasala, . . . . . ?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
Imperatives are verb forms used to give orders, instructions, requests or warnings
When we add a question tag after an imperative, English grammar normally uses → will you?
Even if the imperative is negative (beginning with DON’T) → the tag is still will you?
Examples
Don’t make noise, will you?
Don’t open the door, will you?
So → in this sentence
Don’t chew panmasala, will you?
Why not “should you?”
“should you?” is used in independent questions asking for opinion / advice
Example → Should you be eating so much sugar?
But after an imperative, English grammar rule is fixed → the tag is will you?
Therefore the correct option = A — will you
