Hello everybody,
I'm not a native speaker of English and today I came across a problem that I simply can't solve myself. I'm not sure about the structure of (complex) sentences starting with "What do you think ….".
Can you please tell me which of the following sentences are correct? (Any maybe also why(rule?)--> not neccessary, but maybe you know it).
1. What do you think what kind of play (Comedy, etc.) this is?
2. What do you think what kind of play is this?
and what about These two:
1. What do you think a cucumber is?
2. What do you think is a cucumber?
and these two:
1. Who do you think this is?
2. Who do you think is this?
Thank you very much!!!
