"where does she live" vs "where do she lives"

The correct phrase is "where does she live?". In English, when forming questions with the verb "to do", the base form of the main verb is used (in this case, "live"). The incorrect phrase "where do she lives?" uses the incorrect form of the verb, which makes it grammatically incorrect.
