Understanding 〜たら良いか〜


The sentence `何と言ったら良いか分かりません` means "I don't know what I should say."

But what is the literal translation of this sentence? What is the purpose of
the `か` in `良いか`?




you can think of it like:

> What would be right to say? I don't know

何と言ったら良いか分かりません

What to say... / good? / I don't know

the か would supply the question mark in my literal translation above.
