I was watching an animation last night then I heard a sentence which was strange for me. One of the characters sayed this sentence

"They really do exist"

He sayed it because he saw a creature that he thought they don't exist , so my question is what does do mean here??

  • Although this question is about the present tense, the emphasising nature of the addition of do is well explained in other questions. – Andrew Leach Sep 27 '15 at 12:05
  • "to do" is not only auxiliary for questions and negations, it is also auxiliary for emphasis. http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/flatmates/episode119/languagepoint.shtml – rogermue Sep 27 '15 at 14:39
