Email etiquette can be tricky, especially if you’re not sure how to say “I was wondering” in a way that won’t come across as rude or presumptuous. Here are a few tips: To ask a question in an email, start by writing “Subject: Question” and then type out your question. For example, if you’re wondering what time the library closes, you might write “Subject: Question - Library close time?” If the answer to your question is obvious, don’t bother including it - just hit send. If you want to ask someone a question but don’t know their email address, try using the “@” symbol before their name in your message. For example, if John Doe is the name of the person you want to contact and jdoe@email.com is their email address, you could write “@John Doe” in your message and they would see it as an email addressed to them. ..
