This dissertation aims to explore the use, the functions and intonation of tag questions in TV series, in particular regarding “Bridgerton” season two. It is divided in three chapters: chapter one and chapter two provides information about previous studies. Chapter one highlights the formation, the main functions and intonation of tag questions while chapter two illustrates some characteristics and features of scripted language. Chapter three is instead an actual analysis of the elements described through Bridgerton season two dialogues and conversations. Some of the results of this research study will be very useful to notice some similarities but also differences with previous analysis on the topic.
