In Part 2, question words (like where, what, when, why, how) often appear in reported or embedded questions — and that’s where many candidates slip.
Notice this isn’t a direct question (Where did I leave my phone?) — it’s an indirect one.That means no inversion (no did I).
✅ I can’t remember where I left my phone.❌ I can’t remember where did I leave my phone.
Cambridge loves this structure because it checks whether you understand how question words behave inside a statement.
💡 Pro tip:If you ever see “remember,” “know,” “wonder,” or “ask” followed by a gap, it’s probably an indirect question.Always check if it needs a question word (where, when, who…) or if/whether.
👉 Comment your answer below — and if you want extra credit, write your own example using a different question word!
