i'd like to know what they are vs i'd like to know what are they

The correct phrase is 'I'd like to know what they are.' The verb 'are' should come after the subject 'they' in this type of sentence. Placing the verb before the subject, as in 'I'd like to know what are they,' is incorrect in English.
