| question mark || A question mark is used to indicate a direct question: Is John coming? Which is your car? Note that a question mark will sometimes be the only indication that a sentence is a question and not a statement: John's coming too? Sentences that are questions in form but requests or statements in meaning should not take a question mark: Can you pass me the butter, please. Would the parent of a little boy aged about four and answering to the name of Jeremy please come to the manager's office to collect him. || Informally, a question mark is used to indicate that an indirect question is really a polite request or a tentative direct question: I wonder if you could help me? I'm looking for Princes Street. I was wondering if you would like to come too? || It is used in parentheses to indicate that something in a statement is suspicious or uncertain: He gave his name as Ellis (?) and said he was looking for work. In this regard, we could consider the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer (?1340?1400) and the paintings of Hieronymus Bosch (?1450?1516). |
