To ask questions in the present simple, we use the helping verbs do<\/span> \u0438\u043b\u0438 does<\/span> before the subject.<\/strong> This is how we ask about habits, routines, facts, and general truths. For example, you ask Do you like pizza?<\/span> to know someone’s general preference. We use do<\/span> for subjects like I, you, we,<\/span> \u0438 they<\/span>. We use does<\/span> for subjects like he, she,<\/span> \u0438 it<\/span>. The main verb always stays in its base form (without -s<\/span> \u0438\u043b\u0438 -es<\/span>) after do<\/span> \u0438\u043b\u0438 does<\/span>. Short answers use do<\/span> \u0438\u043b\u0438 does<\/span> again, like Yes, I do.<\/span> \u0438\u043b\u0438 No, she doesn’t.<\/span><\/div>\n

How to Ask ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ Questions<\/h2>\n

To ask a question that can be answered with ‘yes’ or ‘no’ in the present simple, we need a special word at the beginning.<\/p>\n
