These words come at the beginning of the question. For example, <span data-no-translation>Do you like coffee?<\/span> oppure <span data-no-translation>Does he work here?<\/span> This structure is different from Spanish, where you might just change your intonation. In English, <span data-no-translation>do<\/span> e <span data-no-translation>does<\/span> are essential for forming correct questions. They are called auxiliary verbs. We use <span data-no-translation>do<\/span> con <span data-no-translation>I, you, we, they<\/span>, e <span data-no-translation>does<\/span> con <span data-no-translation>he, she, it<\/span>. After <span data-no-translation>do<\/span> oppure <span data-no-translation>does<\/span>, the main verb is always in its base form (infinitive without <span data-no-translation>to<\/span>).
