Use of Question Marks
Hi, I have a question regarding the use of question marks.
In the following text do we infact need question marks? They are indirect questions are they not?
**************************
I would appreciate it if you could send me more information about to where the trips will be. Regarding the classes, I would like to know how many students there will be in class and how many hours a day will be available?
**************************
Thanks if you can help at all.
