How do I know where "왜" goes?

I'm not sure, maybe 왜 is before the verb.

알고 있어 is better than 알아 because 알아 sounds like you're asking if the person you're talking to when you actually mean to ask if "he" knows it.

If this mean does he know why he loses then what will be the translation for do you know why he loses? This lesson is so confusing......

What does 지는지를 mean?

The 지는지를 is combination of the verb 지다 (to lose), 는지 (the uncertainty clause), and 를 (the object particle).
