In English, the present perfect tense is used when the action started in the past and continues to the present. The verb "do" is used as an auxiliary verb in the present perfect tense. The main verb (in this case, the verb in brackets) remains in its base form. For example, "I have played", "I have studied", "I have not eaten", "I have sat", "I have waited", "I have lived".

In the questions, we use "How long do you + verb + ?" to ask about the duration of an action.
