But 'works' is Present Indefinite with a hidden 'does', and the tag must be negative.
आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'do she?' में परिचित 'do' रखा गया प्रतीत हुआ। परंतु 'she' एकवचन है, अतः 'does' चाहिए, और tag negative होना चाहिए: "doesn't she?"।'do she?' keeps the familiar 'do'. But 'she' is singular, so it needs 'does', and the tag must be negative: "doesn't she?".
