Very Simple Basic English Question (1) Today, I was watching the movie "Practical Magic", , there was the scene that the main actress Sandra Bullock said to the cob, like " What do you come inside?" Before I've been heard like this sentence, like" What do you come over right now? Do I hear wrong? But Exactly It was hearing "What .do. you" .. " do " is "about"'s shorten sound? No, I don't think so. Anybody know about this? (2) And I came by one clothes store Metro mall in Vancouver. One clerk kindly asked me: How are you? and Are you looking for something?(or Do you need anything? like that, similar meaning sentence) At that moment, I embarrassed the sudden asking, just said to her: " NOT IN PARTICULAR" It makes sense? In this situation, which one is best answer? "Nothing in particular"? or "No, I'd like to look around."

I love that movie but I haven't seen it in foreve. Anyhow, I thought you meant "Why don't you come inside?" too which would make sense and which is grammatically correct.

1. She most likely said “Why don't you come inside” or “Would you like to come inside?”. The similar sentence you heard could have been “Why don't you come over right now?” or “Would you like to come over (right) now?” “Do” and “about” are not the same and cannot be interchanged with each other, but they can be used together in the same sentence. e.g. What will you do about it? 2. If a clerk comes up to you and asks you a question like that, they just want to know if you need their help finding what you are looking for. It is very common to respond with “No, thanks. Just looking.” Did I answer all your questions? Do you understand?
