Hi everybody!

I have problems to analyse the following sentence.
The task is to describe and analyse the function of the verb "do".
I would be ery pleased if somebody could help me, thanks!!!

Harry! I've been wanting a word- you don't mind if he's a couple of minutes late, do you, Professor Sprou?
Judging by Professor Sprout's scowl, she did mind.

It is an excerpt:Harry Potter, Chamber of the Secrets

@theBecki,

I trust you mean the 'do' that I've underlined, Becky.
