does not translate word by word, this confuses, tries to read the whole sentence and tries to interpret in its own way

I suggest that you make sure that you know how to correctly use the verb "to be." I have noticed that some learners who speak incorrectly do so because they never really understood when to use "to be" and when NOT to use "to be." Make sure that you know how to use "to be" in questions and the negative and -- above all -- when NOT to use "to be" in questions and the negative.

I think just imitate like children, but It's easy to say:)
