当直接引语是特殊疑问句时

如果直接引语是特殊疑问句，改为间接引语时，仍用原句中的wh-类的词引导，其余的变化同直接引语为一般疑问句的情况2—5条一样。例如：

“What is your name?” he asked me.

→He asked me what my name was.

He asked: “Where are you to get off, Peter?”

→He asked Peter where he was to get off.

如果在直接引语的特殊疑问句中，疑问词作主语或主语的修饰语，则语序不需要变化。例如：

“Whose picture is the most beautiful in your class?” asked the boy’s father.

→The boy’s father asked him whose picture was the most beautiful in his class.
