SUMMARY:
The words used as placeholders are: DID, DO and DOES.
Placeholders is a person or thing that occupies the position of another person or thing. In this way We can avoid repeating the same thing over and over.
For example: She doesn’t think I like her, but I do ( “but I do” instead of “but I like her”).
He thinks she doesn ‘t exercise, but she does (“but she does” instead of “but she exercises”).
She asked me to buy it, so I did (“so I did” instead of “I bought it”).
