Present Simple- doubt

Hi. I �ve got a doubt about how to answer this question �Does he like tennis? �
Is it :
Yes, he does. or Yes, he likes.
I think that the first is the correct one but I �m not sure.
Can you help me?
Thanks

Yes, he does.
Always answer with the same auxiliary verb. Have you got...? Yes, I have. Do you have...? Yes, I do. Can you jump? No, I can �t. Are you tired? No, I �m not. Is she there? No, she isn �t. Will you go...? Yes, I will.

If you begin answering Yes, he likes, you always have to continue saying something else like Yes, he likes playing tennis. Otherwise, that will be wrong. Many other languages take Yes, he likes, but not English. |
