I learnt from an article that the sentence "How to spell your name" is wrong.
The author said we can say it this way:"Could you tell me how to spell your name?" or "How do you spell your name?"
But recently, I've watched a movie named "How to lose a guy in 10 days".
In this movie, the phrase "how to..."is used as titles of articles in a magzine, such as "how to talk your way out of your ticket", "how to get a better bod in 5 days"...
So, i feel confused about the phrase "how to".
Is "How to spell your name" wrong, anyway?
