To make a question, we begin with the auxiliary verb Does, then the personal pronoun he, she or it, and then the main verb. We do not add the suffix -s to the main verb in a question . Does he read comics? Does he reaes COFRics? X Does it eat fish? Does it eats HS~? X To make the negative , we put does not between the personal pronoun and the main verb .
