REPORTED QUESTIONS AREN'T QUESTIONS ANY MORE

We follow the rules for reporting statements

As explained in the presentation, we need to step back in tense because the moment the speaker uttered the sentence is now part of the past,

We keep the structure of a statement, not a question.

Britney sang: "Where are you now?" And we can report: She wondered where he was then
