Should there be a 'do' here? - "Trying to figure out what (do) I enjoy doing." [closed]
Should there be a 'do' in this sentence?
"Trying to figure out what (do) I enjoy doing."
Thank you in advance!
The phenomenon you're asking about is Do-support. It happens with questions when there's no other auxiliary, but not with embedded clauses, even when they would seem like they would be questions:
I enjoy doing X.
What do I enjoy doing?
I am trying to figure out what I enjoy doing.
I left early.
Did I leave early?
He knows if I left early.
I went to Canada.
When did I go to Canada?
I forgot when I went to Canada.
