I don't understand why you have used "do" there. It seems redundant.

@oristarA,

It's not redundant, no. But the silly billy has missed out a question mark at the end of his question. Smile

Exactly what part of my post do you consider was rude, Izzy.

As noted by the big island grammarian, 'do' isn't redundant, Ori. In fact, it's necessary.

Exactly what part of my post [do] you consider was rude, Izzy.

If we removed 'do', we'd end up with an unnatural collocation.

Do you consider that certain parts of my post were rude, Izzy?
