Gammer about"who can tell me what is this?"

hey guys, I have a question, the two sentence: "Who can tell me what is this?" and "Who can tell me what this is?" which one is the right sentence or both of them are right? and why?

I've been searching on the Internet for a long time and I couldn't find it. So I come here to ask for help.

Looking forward to your answers! Thanks.

The direct question "What is this?" becomes the indirect (i.e., embedded) question "what this is".

"Who can tell me what this is?" is the correct version.
