Study the examples and answer the questions.

1. Which verb do we use to report questions?
2. Which words do we use to start the reported question if the direct question begins with: a) a question word? b) an auxiliary or modal verb?
3. How do the tenses change?

1. We use the verb ask to report questions.

2. We use:

• a) the same question word: what, where, when, why, who, how;
• b) if or whether when the direct question begins with an auxiliary or modal verb.

3. In reported questions, the tense usually changes back one step: present simple → past simple, present continuous → past continuous, present perfect → past perfect, will → would.
