Porque uso el do you aqui? En la siguente pregunta que significa y porque se pone el "do you" aqui: come on! You don't believe in that nonsense, do you?

Look at it in two parts: "You don't believe in that nonsense" - The speaker is stating what they believe to be a certain position, that the other person doesn't believe in whatever it is, then they realize that the other person may, in fact, believe it so they ask "Do you?" That would be the origin of such a sentence structure.

Es correct lo que ha explicado Eric. Quiero agregar el siguiente: la regla es poner los verbos auxiliares, do, could, can, etc a su opuesto, ej: 1. She DIDN'T dance with her ex-boyfriend, DID she? 2. You COULDN'T finish your homework, COULD you? 3. Your DO believe in ghost, DON'T you? Ojalá te haya ayudado!

Es como en espanol a veces una pregunta se termina con "no?" o "cierto?". Por ejemplo: "Esta pelicula fue buena, no?" o "Este mes es septiembre, cierto?"
