Description

In Spanish, one can ask a question by simply changing the vocal pitch:  "Beto practica el piano" becomes "¿Beto practica el piano?"  In English, it is extremely common to require a form of "do" to make a statement into a question.  The answer to the question, then, will **also** utilize the word "do." Wow!

I read two books a week.  --> **Do** you read two books a week?  -->  Yes, I **do.**

Listen to this episode to hear how Greg's rude neighbor insists on playing the trumpet, even though she plays extremely badly!  By the end of the episode, you will be more comfortable asking and answering questions with both "do" and "does."  As a bonus, Greg and Gabe also give multiple examples of "don't" and "doesn't"!!  Pow!
