Hello everybody, I have a problem and I need some helps from you. This is my problem: Can you tell me (what your name is) or (what is your name). I think answer 1. I don't want to ask: Can you tell me your name.

I think the sentence " Can you tell me your name" is good enough, If you dont want to say it, try another different one like " May I know your name (please)?" (saying in a polite way) or simply " What is your name?"

After 5years, you're still thinking about your desired field. so you should give yourself a chance to fulfil your dream.
but, if you want to change you must have a strong determine for what you going to do. it may have some strange looks, talk about your decide. just keep on your stance. better late than never

I know that nothing is too late until I'm death. But I have so many confusions,dont know how to express it. Arrrrrr, Damn it

I'm afraid that you might have missed the point, the asker perhaps didn't raise that question for a way to ask someone for their name. but to ask how put the two elements "can you tell me" and "what is your name" together in a proper way in English.

And here's my answer.

You're right! I'd pick the first one without any deliberation.

As in English grammar, we reverse the question form "what/how to be sth" as "what/how sth to be" when we put some stuff in the begining of the sentence [within limits though]. the oringinal question structure would then not be as pure as the standard question form, because the additional part as you inserted "can you tell me?" grammatically deforms it. and as you may see, the phrase "can you tell me?" itself is naturally a question form. I'd say for sure that you don't want to make people confused by coming out such a complexly mixed question form. "can you tell me what is your name?".

as I previously mentioned "we reverse the question form "..." when we put some stuff in the begining of the sentence" but within limits.
There're two cases:
1. In normal speech you could go like: "She asked me where I had put her bra."
2. When you relate what someone has originally said with a quote as in: "She ranted at me: Where had you put my bra??" ohoh.. Then you could keep the initial form of the whole sentence, despite that the saying has seemingly been separated half and half.
Everything's done. except me...

Seriously ? Might I ask your gender? If you're a (young) woman, that's question is way too weird ! If you're a (young) man, practie makes perfect !

it's indeed long, considering the standard of the question of interest, which is by no means worth the considerable amount of words put in that post.

nevertheless, to answer the question raised regarding which one to use, either is ok, thou 1. should ease the souls of our notorious grammar nazis, yet native people pay pretty much less than none attention to whether the TO BE being arranged as in question type fashion.

After reading twice, I still cant get it, you tend to talk about the sentence or the bra

anw, If u really have problem with bra, I mean at the middle of the night, I wonder what have you been doing all night
