Hello, Merella, and welcome aboard!
Your question is too vague -- that’s probably why it has remained unanswered so far.
Do: present simple for I, you, we, they Does: present simple for he, she, it Did: past simple; same form for all persons
I'm aware this is too succinct and incomplete, but I'm at a loss as to what exactly you are asking.
Dictionaries provide exhaustive examples for the use of the verb.

Hey there! Yes, I completely agree with Conchita, you should've expanded on that a bit more. But let us be reminded of this: do, does and did can be used either as a verb or as an auxiliary, or as part of a short affirmative answer. For instance:
Do you like apples? Yes, I do.
Does John go to Homework Club on Tuesdays? Yes, he does.
Did John Lennon write "Imagine"? Yes, he did.
Hope the picture's clearer by now, Merella! |

Considering that both the question and answer were posted in 2006, I don't think anyone is interested any more. _________________ Keep it simple ... Keep it interesting. |
