Japanese Language
「Adjectives and Adverbs」

「Adj Pred+ka dō ka・かどうか」
”Whether or not"

The phrase ka dō ka is used to indicate a question embedded into a sentence.

「A」悪い/悪かったかどうか
Warui/warukatta ka dō ka
(whether or not....is/was bad)

「B」健康*/健康だったかどうか
Kenkō*/Kenkō datta ka dō ka
(whether or not....is/was healthy)
*Daだ is dropped

Examples:
この小説の訳が悪いかどうか分からない。
Kono shōsetsu no yaku ga warui ka dō ka wakaranai.
I can't tell whether the translation of this novel is bad or not.

去年の夏がいつもより暑かったかどうか覚えていません。
Kyonen no natsu ga itsumo yori atsukatta ka dō ka oboete imasen.
I don't remember whether last summer was hotter than usual or not.

野田さんの赤ちゃんが健康かどうか知りません。
Noda-san no akachan ga kenkō ka dō ka shirimasen.
I don't know whether Mrs. Noda's baby is healthy or not.

Hope this helps!

じゃまたね!
