Indirect questions (embedded wh-clauses): choose the grammatically correct form Context: The question is embedded after “Do you know”. Complete the sentence: "Do you know ______?" Choose the option that forms a correct embedded question.

Given data

• Matrix clause: “Do you know …?”
• Embedded wh-clause about origin.

Concept/ApproachIn indirect (embedded) questions, English uses statement word order (subject + verb), not inversion. Also, preposition “from” naturally follows the verb “comes” in modern usage.

Option analysiswhere she comes from — correct: embedded clause with statement order and natural stranded preposition. ✅where does she come from — inversion wrongly retained; this is a direct question form.where from she comes — awkward order; not idiomatic.from where does she come — very formal and uses inversion; acceptable only as a direct question, not as an embedded one.

Common pitfalls

• Keeping auxiliary inversion in embedded questions.
• Over-formal “from where” when natural speech prefers “where … from.”

Final Answerwhere she comes from
