• A. An e-mail wrote who?
• B. Who wrote an e-mail?
• C. Who an e-mail wrote?
• D. Wrote who an e-mail?

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Who wrote an e-mail?

Option A - As the given sentence has a question mark, it should begin with the question word 'who'. Hence, option A is incorrect.

Option C - A question word is always accompanied by the verb or an auxiliary verb to determine the state of being/doing. As 'wrote' is at the end of the question, it is grammatically incorrect. Hence, option C is incorrect.

Option D - As the given sentence has a question mark, it should begin with the question word 'who'. Hence, option D is incorrect.

Option B - 'Wrote' is mentioned right after the question word 'who' to determine the tense of the interrogatory sentence and 'an e-mail' is also in place. Hence, option B is the correct answer.

'Who wrote an e-mail?'
