Negative sentences and questions are formed with the auxiliary verb 'do'.
The 3rd person singular of 'do' is 'does'. This means that in negative sentences and questions the 's' of the main verb is placed behind 'do'.

The sun sets in the west. | The sunnever sets in the east or south or north, but always in the west. |

action in the present taking place once, never or several times

Shetakes her bag and leaves. | First one action takes place and then the other. |
