Reported Questions

Jeśli pytanie cytowane zaczyna się od słówka pytającego, wtedy cofając czas pamiętajmy o szyku zdania twierdzącego.

A reszta pytań, rozpoczynających się od tzw. inwersji, lub od operatora np. do/did/have itd., należy wtedy wstawić słowo IF lub WHETHER, a dalej znów szyk zdania twierdzącego wraz z "cofnięciem czasu".

Enjoy!
