Here is a chance for you to ask me a personal question, but you have to use a noun clause.
You can start it like this:
Holly, I'd like to know what your middle name is.
Or...
Holly, could you tell me what your middle name is?
Or...
I'm interested in knowing what your middle name is.
Or...
if you have another way to ask the question using a noun clause, TERRIFIC.
I'm not sure WHICH QUESTIONS I'LL ANSWER yet. Let's see what you come up with!
Ask me three questions.
You may not repeat questions that have already been asked.
Hi
ReplyDeletecould you tell me what your goal is in your life?

Is #2 a question or a statement?
Delete(to relax OR to be relaxed)
It's question.
ReplyDeleteTo relax
Is it wrong if I mean statement ?
