It's not so different from reported statements. The tense changes in the same way, we keep the question word.
Direct speech
- Where do you live?
The direct question is in present tense.
If we ask a question, we use 'do' and or 'does' , so we have to take that away.
- Where
then put the verb to the past simple.
- where you lived
Reported speech
- He asked me where I lived.
Example :
Direct speech : Where is the sugar bowl?
Reported speech : He asked me where sugar bowl was.
If we answer the question with "yes" or "no" instead of question word, we use "if".
Direct speech:
- Do you like learning English?
Reported speech:
- He asked me if I liked learning English.
