Hi Friend, according to my knowledge instead of who are you calling? we can say, who is calling ?

Hi Poonam,

Thank you for your message. In terms of grammar, there are a couple of issues in your sentence. Here is the corrected version: "Thanks, friends. I think so, but the main concern is what is wrong in terms of grammar in this sentence, although it sounds awkward. I understand someone will certainly figure out the confusion. I hope to see the right and grammatically correct answer."

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best regards,

Dear Poonam,

The question that you had posted has only one meaning. This question is asked by the person making the call to check with whom he/she is calling to speak with. It is not supposed to be asked by the receiver to the caller who is calling.

Hi Mukesh,

The body of the question is: "Who are you calling?" I understand that the first phase "Who are you" is complete in itself, and by adding "calling" in the same sentence, it sounds a little bit odd to me. That's why I have posted this here.

I do not thik this is the correct sentence. As I know it should be " May I know who is calling? or Who is calling? Who is speaking? I hope it helps you. Selva Bangalore 9663571886

We can use "May I know who is calling?" or "May I know who is on the line?" Regards, Yogesh S.

Hello Poonam,

Please first correct your own English first. Correct spellings are: "Grammar" not "ER" and "Listening" not "Listining". First, learn to correct your English and then explore whether others' English is correct or not!

A lot of kids these days hardly pay any attention to spelling or grammar. I find it appalling to notice such blunders in CiteHR itself. It is high time there is some movement to correct the legacy left behind by the British in 1947. We Indians are supposed to be very good in the English language, but what I observe is its degeneration with the advent of Email and SMS!

After seeing the way the English language is getting slaughtered in CiteHR, I have been driven to develop a one-day Training Programme called "ENGLISH FOR EXECUTIVES"! As a Softskill Trainer, this is the best, I feel, I can do. Any takers??

Best wishes to all those who venture into correcting their own and others' English!

Bye,

Hi Selva,

I truly agree with you, but I am a witness to hearing this from the people around me. As I explained, this sentence always sounds awkward to me, and I was wondering whether it is correct. Unfortunately, none of the geniuses has come forward to clear up this silly question.

Thank you.
