Reported Questions

These questions are usually introduced with inquire, ask, want to know, wonder . When questions begin with a question word (what, when, where...), you also use it in your reported speech. 
Have a look:

"What is your favourite dish?" Carolina wanted to know.

Carolina wanted to know what my favourite dish was.

However, questions might also begin with an auxiliar verb (is, have, do) or with a modal. In this case, you have to introduce if or wether in your reported speech. 
Check it out:

"Do you like ice cream?" Afonso asked me.
