grammar - Which is correct (if any): "please let me know what do you think"? or "please let me know what you think"?



I find myself unsure which of the following is more correct:




please let me know what do you think





Or




please let me know what you think




My gut feeling tells me that it's the latter...



Or are both incorrect and there is a better way to say the same thing?



Answer




Please let me know what you think




is correct. Even if do were to be included, the correct form would be




Please let me know what you do think





but this should only be used for emphasis (for example, to contrast with don't think).
