Admire means have a high regard for someone. We admire people because they do great things and help others. You admire someone if they run into a burning building to save someone's life.

After some verbs you can ask in the middle why? Because there is no room to fit into your question, you are a prisoner of sentence time and you have to end the sentence at first.

I’m about seeking a road map for some verbs that not allow introducing a question if we don’t end the sentence.it is a kind of modelling.
