Watch, listen, and learn about embedded questions |
The woman is asking an embedded question.
Embedded questions are questions within questions. In this example, the question "What time is it?" is embedded within the main question, "Would you tell me...?" Questions can also be embedded within a statement. For example, the man could say the statement, "I don't know." He could embed the woman's question "What time is it?" within this statement: "I don't know what time it is." |
