Assunto:  Re: prepositions in questions
 
Mensagem:  It's not grammatically correct , but in spoken English is possible to put a prepositionat the end of a question. What are you waiting for? What are you afraid of? You're right ! If the person no longer studies English, we have to use the Simple Past. &"For how long did you study English ?&" &"How long did you study English for?&"(It really sounds a little strange.) -I studied English for two years.
