📔 Writing
Session #n41: Transactional letters (REQUESTING INFORMATION)

To request information you can use direct or Indirect questions.

🔅Direct questions are quite common in informal letters and often begin with a question word such as what, who, when, how, etc.
e.q. What time will the party finish? How far is the hotel from the beach?

🔅 Most indirect questions are formed with modals such as could, would, etc and are normally used in semi-formal or formal letters.
- e.g. I would be gratelul if you could tell me what time the party will finish.
Could you please let me know how far the hotet is from the beach?

You use if/whether in an indirect question when there is no question word in the direct question.
e.g.
Direct question: Do we need to bring our own food?
Indirect queslion: I would like to know If/whether we need to bring our own food.
