Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct. Do you know ___?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
The correct answer is D: "what time it is." In English, the correct word order for asking questions is usually question word + auxiliary verb + subject + main verb. In this sentence, "what time" is the question word, "is" is the auxiliary verb, and "it" is the subject. Therefore, the correct structure is "what time it is."
Choice A is incorrect because it lacks proper word order. Choice B is close but the correct word order is needed. Choice C is incorrect as it inverts the order of the words. The correct structure is maintained in choice D, making it the right answer.
