EMBEDDED SENTENCE
An embedded sentence is a question sentence which is in a question or positive sentence.

When do you bring your sister? She is asking when I bring my sister.
How did you pass to Foundation 2?

In order to embed general questions we use the following structure;




S + V + IF / WHETHER + S + V + C + M
