宾语从句不是陈述语序么

Question

i think why wasnt i there in front 为什么不是陈述语序。

Answer 1

这是口语，正式文体中，宾语从句一定要用陈述语序，即特殊疑问词加主语加谓语动词的结构，如：
I wonder what the problem is.
I don't know where they are.
I don't understand why they didn't come.
We'd like to know what the young people want.
We'd like to hear what Robbie thinks about it.
We don't know where he went.

但是我在很多书上看到过这样的用法，包括今天和外教讨论了下，她告诉我如果后面的是否定形式，需要改顺序

不对，不管主句的谓语动词是肯定句还是否定句，宾语从句一定要用陈述句的语序，希望我能帮助你解疑释惑。
