do you know where did they put our coats vs do you know where they put our coats

The correct phrase is "do you know where they put our coats?" The first phrase is incorrect because it uses the auxiliary verb "did" in the wrong position. The second phrase is the correct and commonly used form.

do you know where did they put our coats

This phrase is incorrect. The auxiliary verb "did" should not be used in this structure.

The correct structure is to use the auxiliary verb "did" in questions with the subject-verb inversion, but in this case, the correct form is without the auxiliary verb.

Alternatives:

  • do you know where they put our coats

do you know where they put our coats

This phrase is correct and commonly used in English.

This is the correct form to ask someone if they are aware of the location where our coats were placed.
