we, they and we use the auxiliar ‘does’ with the pronouns: he, she, it:
Where does she live?
She lives in Taguatinga.
Does she live in Alcobaça?
No, she doesn’t live in Alcobaça. She lives in Taguatinga.
When we use the auxiliar ‘does’ we conjugate the verb similar to the conjugation of the first person singular:
