Which is more natural?

**murmunisttoi** · 17-Feb-2012, 05:46

I think both:

am wondering if
was wondering if

are correct, depending on the tense you use. I however could vote for only one option! :(

**Mr.Ayed** · 17-Feb-2012, 20:16

I chose No. 1 and remember that context is very helpful.

**Muhamad Rijal** · 16-Mar-2012, 02:44

I choose No. 3 of course...

**Tullia** · 16-Mar-2012, 13:47

I chose #3, but would prefer #4 if I added the phrase "or not" at the end.

**farhan riyaz** · 26-Mar-2012, 09:39

i choose 3 this is correct tense

**Nakuru** · 27-Jun-2012, 20:25

I think it's the third option, and it sounds more polite that the first one.

I chose "was wondering if" but is "am wondering if" less natural? Why?

**aynur esma** · 07-Sep-2012, 13:22

I think it would be I am wondering if..

Maybe the 1st if you are asking for someone's help, or the 3rd if you are talking about st in the past.
"whether" is often used with "or"

Poll: I ____ you could help me.
