When there is a MODAL VERB (MUST, CAN, MIGHT ...) or an AUXILIARY VERB (ARE, IS, DO, DOES, HAVE ...), then the reported question begins with IF or WHETHER and the word order is like an affirmative sentence. The tense of the verb changes as it does in reported speech. Direct question: "Have you been to London before?", she asked me. Reported question: She asked me if/whether I had been to London before. Reported question: subject + reporting verb + if/whether + subject + verb
When there is a question word (HOW, WHAT, WHEN, WHO, WHY, WHERE), the reported question is introduced with the same question word and the word order is like an affirmative sentence. The tense of the verb changes as it does in reported speech. Direct question: "What do you want to buy?", he asked me. Reported question: He asked me what I wanted to buy. Reported question: subject + reporting verb + wh-word + subject + verb
