TO WONDER

Good morning. I hope you have had a great week. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin. Today is Friday the 13th, a day of very good luck. 

Today's word is: To wonder (verb)

It means: to want to know something or to try to understand the reason for something.

This verb is used with if or a question word (what, why, when, etc.) and an indirect question structure (the verb is usually in the final position of the sentence).

Example 1: I wonder when Debbie will get here. She's usually very punctual but today she's already 15 minutes late.

Example 2: I wonder if there is anything in the fridge for dinner. If not, I'll have to go shopping for food.

⇒ If you are still wondering how to use this verb, I encourage you to write you own original sentence with this word and post it to one of our social media sites (Facebook or Bluesky); we will give you feedback about your sentence as soon as possible.

I hope the rest of your day goes well and that you have an excellent weekend.

All the best!
