what I came here for?

NewguestHi

Which is better?

1. I'm wondering what I came here for?

2. I'm wondering what did I come here for?

Are both forms possible to use?

I would use the first sentence.

What if I wrote: I'm wondering: What did I come here for?

Hi Newguest

I think it's fine.

Some people may write I'm wondering: "What did I come here for?" To me, this is incorrect because you are not talking or thinking aloud.

My two cents:

You can ask, "Why did I come here for?" With a high probabilty you are looking for an answer. I came here because... But if you add "I am wondering" at the beginning of the sentence, this sentence turns into a noun clause. In fact, rather than asking a question, you declare something to us. However you can say:

"I am wondering what I came here for. **** i

It's clear now. Thanks.
