Let’s face it, sometimes asking too many questions can be annoying. Well, not all people find it annoying but some do find it annoying. I, on the other hand, like to ask questions because I am curious about a lot of things. And sometimes I just want to know why or how or what is really happening. I guess you can say that’s just my being curious. But I mean aren’t we all curious? Don’t we all want to know or how or what is really happening? So that’s why we ask questions and we ask and ask and ask and ask and ask until we get a response.

Well, here’s the thing… you can ask questions in any language. You can even ask questions in Italian. Just as long as you know what questions to ask and how to ask them.
