Hi,

Who cares (about) how many songs he wrote?

The underlined part is not a question. It's a noun clause that happens to be used in this question.

A noun clause can be used instd of a noun, in all kinds of sentences.

Hi,

Yes, although it can sometimes be omitted.

Do you know when to use 'did'? Would you like to write a few sentences using it?

Hi,

OK, here is a Past Simple sentence.

Can you make this negative? (using 'not')

Can you change it into a question?
