When to use does or do ?

DOES → present tense for she, he, it, and singular nouns:
- DOES Nan like fish tacos?
- DOES your dog eat cookies?
- Henry DOES most of his social media work before lunch.
DO → present tense for I, you, we, they, and plural nouns:

- DO you know who I am?
- DO we have to do our homework?
- They DO their research at the library.
DO → base form (bare infinitive) of "to do" that is used after modals such as CAN, COULD, SHOULD, etc.:

- SHOULD we DO this project together?
- I'm not tired, so we COULD DO more work tonight.

"For a moment I thought you were Zayn Malik." Is this correct? Thank you for helping me and others I love you.

Yes, it is correct. (And you're welcome!) ^^

Is it I missed you or I miss you? I'll missed you or I'll miss you?

If it happened in the past, "I missed you": I missed you yesterday. I missed you earlier today.
If you miss that person right now, "I miss you": I miss you so much.
"I'll missed you" is always wrong.
If you or someone else is going to leave soon, you'll say "I'll miss you": I'll miss you while I'm in Tokyo next month.

sticks and stones "have"? stick and stone "has"? are these right? if not, whats the rule? thanks muchhh

"And" tells us that we're talking about multiple things, so it should be "have"; in other words, "sticks and stones" (plural) must go with "have" (plural).
Even with "a stick" and "a stone," we would still use "have" because they are more than one thing.

Is "rambunctious" means wild? How to use it in a sentence?

Yes, as in "noisy and out of control": The RAMBUNCTIOUS child had to be taken out of the library because he was making too much noise.

so when should we use the word mistaken?

Here are some examples:
- It was a case of MISTAKEN identity. ("Mistaken" is an adjective.)
- Nan HAS never MISTAKEN Henry for a K-pop idol. ("Has mistaken" = present perfect tense.)
- Peter was MISTAKEN yesterday when he tried to pay for lunch with Monopoly money. ("Mistaken" is an adjective.)
- If Henry thinks the newest "Final Fantasy" game is excellent, he is sadly MISTAKEN. ("Mistaken" is an adjective.)

can you explain to me how to use indeed and instead ? thankyou :)

We use the word "indeed" to add emphasis to a statement. It's also another way to say: "That's right."
- Jo is a good friend indeed.
- I passed the test, and indeed, I got a perfect score!
- I am indeed drunk: I can't remember my phone number.
"Instead" means "in place of" or "as an alternative to"; it can also mean "on the contrary":
- Instead of coffee, I would like tea.
- Nan chose to go to the beach instead.
- Instead of working on the book, Henry is watching an old episode of "Attack on Titan."

This isn't about grammar or vocabulary, but I wonder if you could enlighten me... Why are most stories (e.g. novels) written in past tense instead of present tense? Is there any definite rule for writing stories, particularly fiction? Thank you very much. Keep doing what you do! <3

Excellent question.
This is one of those questions that would require an essay to answer. Fortunately for us, we have this: http://bit.ly/1fezM1P :-) (We agree with what the writer has to say.)

What does 'it does not do' means in 'It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.' I mean, I completely understand what Albus is trying to say, I just can't fathom why he used that phrase instead of, example, 'It's not good.....'

"It does not do" is a formal (and old-fashioned) way of saying "It's not good" or "It's not helpful."
- "It does not do (It is not good) to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, if you live near him.” ~ J.R.R. Tolkien

Hi!! Mind to help me? "Art for life,life for art" or "art for life,live for art"? Thanks :)

To maintain parallel structure, it should be "Art for life, life for art."
"Art (noun) for life (noun), life (noun) for art (noun)." → Right
"Art (noun) for life (noun), live (verb) for art (noun)" → Wrong

Is it what even is that or what is that even

"What is that even?"
Nan: What is that even?
Henry: Who knows? I think it's a new type of candy.

what is the meaning of "legit" and how to use it ?

"Legit" is slang. It's an abbreviation of "legitimate."
We use "legit" to say that something is authentic, genuine, or valid:
- That's a legit copy of "Interstellar."
- That ID is legit; let him in.
We also use "legit" to say that something or someone is excellent or cool:
- Yeah, G-DRAGON is legit: he sings, dances, raps, writes, and produces.
- Forget the haters: Red Velvet is legit!
Don't use "legit" in your essays for school.

How to differentiate when will we use 'im not', 'I dont'? Thanks :)

Q: Do you smoke?
A: I don't.
Q: Are you tall?
A: I'm not.
We use "I don't" to talk about ACTIONS (verbs):
- I don't DANCE.
- I don't LIKE to study.
- I don't TALK to strangers.
- I don't KNOW the answer.
We use "I'm not" to describe STATES OF BEING (adjectives) or -ING ACTIONS:
- I'm not SICK.
- I'm not TALKING to you.
- I'm not JOKING right now.
- I'm not HUNGRY.

'Anyone know' or 'Anyone knows' ?

"Anyone" is singular, so "anyone knows" is right: If ANYONE KNOWS where I could buy a used typewriter, please tell me.
However, after DOES, DOESN'T, CAN, and CAN'T, it's the other way around. We need to use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb, so it's "anyone know":
- DOES anyone KNOW the answer? → Right
- DOES anyone KNOWS the answer? → Wrong
- How CAN anyone KNOW how to solve this problem? → Right
- How CAN anyone KNOWS how to solve this problem? → Wrong
