对反意疑问句的回答，无论问题的提法如何，如果事实是肯定的，就用yes，事实是否定的，就要用no。要特别注意陈述句部分是否定结构，反意疑问句部分用肯定式提问时，回答yes或no与汉语正好相反。这种省略回答的yes要译成“不”，no要译成“是”。
例：—He likes playing football, doesn't he? 他喜欢踢足球，是吗？
—Yes, he does. / No, he doesn't. 是的。/ 不是。
—His sister didn't attend the meeting, did she? 他妹妹没有参加会议，是吗？
—Yes, she did. / No, she didn't. 不，她参加了。/ 是的，她没参加。
