Using "do" in questions.
Hi!
I'm heartily greeting all english-speaking people.
I have one question and ask to tell it for me.
All textbooks about english grammar prescribe us to formulate present simple questions that way:

Do you read books?
Do you go to walk?

I'm interesting, can I to ask the questions in the following form:

Read you books?
Go you to walk?

I have read in one plase that such form can use in a colloquial.
Is it true?

I'm interesting, can I to ask the questions in the following form:

Read you books?
Go you to walk?

Answer

1. Do you read books? (Standard English.)

2. In friendly and fast conversation, you could also say: "You read books? I thought that you hated books!"

*****

Someone speaks to you in Russian.
You are surprised.
You say, "Wow! You speak Russian? I didn't know that!"

*****

NO,  you may NOT say "Read you books?" in modern English.

Many hundreds of years ago,  people did, indeed, ask questions without "do."

For example: "See you this?"  is now "Do you see this?"

Answer

Thank you, Jerry. I will be know it.

Answer

Hi, Sergei. Those formulations are not English grammar. To me they look like Russian grammar.
The second sentence is wrong, too.
