Simple Present Tense — Sentence Correction

Day 4: Question Sentence Errors (Do / Does)

❓ Why Day 4 Correction is Important

In Simple Present Tense, learners often make mistakes while asking questions.

This correction lesson helps you:

Use do / does correctly in questions
Understand the correct question structure
Speak confidently without hesitation

Golden Rule (Must Remember)

Question Sentence =
Do / Does + Subject + Base Verb + ?

👉 In questions, the verb never takes s / es.

How to Choose Do / Does

Do → I / You / We / They
Does → He / She / It

❌ Wrong → ✅ Correct (Observe Carefully)

❌ Does he works here?
✅ Does he work here?
❌ Do she like coffee?
✅ Does she like coffee?
❌ He does go to office?
✅ Does he go to office?
❌ Do he know English?
✅ Does he know English?

Why These Mistakes Happen

Most learners:

Add s / es to the verb in questions
Forget to change do / does when the subject changes
Use statement word order while asking questions

👉 Remember: The helping verb always comes first in a question.

Common Spoken Mistakes

❌ She does like tea?
✅ Does she like tea?
❌ He do work here?
✅ Does he work here?
❌ Do he plays cricket?
✅ Does he play cricket?

Practice Section (Correct These)

Do she understand English?
Does he works daily?
He does come here?

(Think before checking the answers — accuracy builds fluency)

Gentle Reminder

When you ask questions correctly, your English sounds natural and confident.

One correct question can start a meaningful conversation.
