Hi Leandro,

 

You use the word "do" to ask a question relating to helping someone, or to ask about the quantity that someone may have of an item. Here are some examples:

 

Asking help type questions:

 

-Do you need help carrying that box?

 

-Do you need help finding your watch?

 

-Do you need help cleaning the kitchen?

 

-Do you need help finding the address?

 

Asking questions about quantity of items:

 

-Do you have enough paper for your report?

 

-Do you have enough milk for the recipe?

 

-Do you have enough time to help me before you leave on vacation/holiday?

 

-Do you have enough food for everyone at the party?

 

These are just a few examples of the use of the word "do". Please let me know if you have any questions! If you would like help to improve and practice your English, I'd be happy to help you.
