Indirect question
Hello,
I am supposed to change this question:
"Are you having a holiday soon?"
into a direct question which starts with "Do you know."
I did it in this way:
"Do you know if/whether you are having a holiday soon?"
and checked the answer in the key.
However, the key gave me this answer:
"Do you know if you will be having a holiday soon?"
Can you please explain to me why there is a different tense?
Thank you
