Use 'if or 'whether' if the sentence inside the quotation marks begins with a helping verb (Auxiliary verb). Use the given interrogative word (what, when, where, why, who, whom, whose, which, now etc.) if it does not begin with the helping verb. Don't use 'that'. Changing the reporting verb (say, said) into 'ask' or 'enquire' in its correct tense. Omit helping verb like 'do, does, did', But don't omit them when they are with 2 'not'.
