Hi,


I'm a little bit stuck trying to figure out something with the following sentence:


Did Michael bring the lunch or do we need to get the shopping


Is it correct to use one question mark at the end of the sentence?  I can't seem to find any examples on the web that show what to do in this situation!


Thanks,


Martin

Hi,


I'm having a bit of trouble with the following sentence, any help would be appreciated.


Did Michael bring the lunch or do we need to get the shopping


Is it correct to use a question mark for both questions within the sentence?


Thanks

Hi,

Just use one.

One sentence, one question mark.

I was sure it was supposed to be one because it really doesn't look right with two, I've got an exam to get entry into a course and I've always thought English was one of my strong points, guess I'm just being a bit anxious! 


Thanks a lot for your help!
