Wh Question কী
যে question wh word দিয়ে শুরু হয়, তাকে wh question বলে।
Examples:
Where do you live
Why are you late
What do you want
When will he come
How can I help you
এই question-এর answer yes বা no দিয়ে হয় না।

Main Idea
Wh question change করতে হলে:
said to → asked
wh word same থাকবে
Question order → statement order
Pronoun change
Tense backshift
Time/place change if needed
---
Structure
Reporting part + wh word + statement form
---
Important Rule
Yes/no question-এ if বা whether ব্যবহার হয়।
কিন্তু wh question-এ if বা whether ব্যবহার হয় না।
এখানে original wh word-টাই থাকে।

He said to me, “Where do you live?”
He asked me where I lived.
এখানে where, where-ই আছে।

Question Form থেকে Statement Form
এই rule খুব important।
Wrong:
He asked me where did I live.
She asked him why was he sad.
Correct:
He asked me where I lived.
She asked him why he was sad.
অর্থাৎ indirect speech-এ question order না, statement order হবে।
