Are those reported speech correct?

Reported - "He asked when she would leave"

2."When does the restaurant close?"

Reported - "He wondered when the restaurant would close"

Thank you

" when did she leave? -it should be like this.. if you mean the "past" of this question.

  • on the other hand, you may say it too like this "when will she leave" if you mean the "future" of this question.
  • hope you get it.
