  • hi there my name is Ronnie and today I'm going to teach a lesson by special

  • request from engvid.com someone wrote in or typed in and wanted a lesson on the

  • very basic verb of do

  • now we really use this verb a lot in English it's called an auxiliary verb

  • sometimes we need to put it in where you think it doesn't go

  • I'm just going to teach you the basic positive and negative of this verb

  • so the reason why this is so confusing is we have to change it

  • depending on the subject, so if you're talking about yourself you're going to

  • say i do we usually say this in a marriage

  • do you I do whoo hoo if we have the word

  • you and I both use do if we have he or she we must use does so I do you do

  • he or she does these are the only ones that change if we want to talk about a

  • group of people, we can see they. They do, and if you're talking about yourself and

  • another person

  • we're going to say we do so you only really have to be worried about when we

  • he or she don't worry about it

  • he or she does all of the other subjects do now the negative is also different

  • with do and does when we use the negative with I, you,

  • they, and we.

  • We say don't

  • don't is actually a contraction of do not but in normal everyday speaking

  • English

  • it's very very same "do not" we usually say don't

  • so if we use I you

  • they and we going to say don't I don't have a cat

  • you don't like me

  • we don't go there if it's the word does in the negative it's going to change too

  • doesn't

  • so for example he doesn't like cats

  • she doesn't like him

  • so we never change the subject in the negative

  • it's always the same he or she does he or she doesn't

  • when we don't we use I you

  • they and we. The last thing about this lovely verb is the past the past

  • thank goodness will stay the same

  • ok does not change so we can use

  • I he/she they and we did the negative of this is it

  • peace are present this is pass

  • so these do not change this is easier I he she they we did I didn't like him he

  • didn't like the cat

  • all right i hope that clears it up for you and please if you have any suggestions

  • anything you would like to be taught

  • please go to engvid.com and write a comment and we'll be happy to

  • teach you

  • bye-bye
