Indirect questions - pytania pośrednie

Indirect questions - pytania pośrednie

Pytania pośrednie (Indirect questions) stosujemy, kiedy chcemy w bardzo uprzejmy sposób zadać drugiej osobie pytanie. 

Zwroty grzecznościowe stosowane w pytaniach pośrednich:

• Do you know… – Czy wie Pan / Pani…

• Can / Could you tell me… – Czy może mi Pan / Pani powiedzieć…

• I wonder… – Zastanawiam się…

W pytaniach pośrednich konstrukcja zdania pytającego zostaje zmieniona na konstrukcję zdania twierdzącego. 

W przypadku przekształcania pytań typu tak / nie (yes/no questions) na pytania pośrednie (Indirect questions), gdzie mamy do czynienia z brakiem wyrazu pytającego, w jego miejsce wstawiamy if lub whether (w konstrukcji zdania to znaczy – czy).

• Does Susan like vegetables?

  Czy Susan lubi warzywa?

• Do you know if Susan likes vegetables?

  Czy wie Pan / Pani, czy Susan lubi warzywa?

• Can Kate cook well?

  Czy Kate umie dobrze gotowac?

• Do you know whether Kate can cook well?

  Czy wie Pan / Pani, czy Kate umie dobrze gotować?
