Hi,

Is this sentence correct?

You know exactly what you are against.

To me alternative version of above sentence sounds more correct.

alternative version: You know exactly you are against what.

Please you tell me which one is correct.

It’s a difficult question for any man to answer… Whether to follow his dreams no matter what… Or to give in slowly and let life lead you where it will.

Jackson66,

Are you asking a question or telling us you already know the answer?

I don't know how you got the idea that your alternative is more correct, but I can tell you that it's not only wrong, it's Atrociously wrong.

The correct structure is : Do you know what you are up against?
