Reported Speech: Questions

Observe and remember indirect speech and sequence of tenses: general and special questions.
The general rules are as follows:

1. Normal word order is used in reported questions: ‘subject + verb’
2. The rules for sequence of tenses compulsory when the verb in the main clause is in the one of the Past Tenses.
3. Indirect question is preceded by a clause containing a verb like ask (somebody), tell (me) or (I) wonder.
