    This document discusses noun clauses and embedded questions. It provides examples of noun clauses using question words like that, if, whether, what, when, where, why, which, and how. The examples illustrate using these question words in sentences with reporting verbs like think, believe, know, and wonder or as the subject or object of a sentence. The document then gives examples of rewriting direct questions as noun clauses, changing questions like "Where does Mr. Pedro Álvarez live?" into a statement using a question word as a noun clause.
