How much did you buy the wallet for? vs How much did you buy the wallet?
I found this sentence "How much did you buy the wallet?" in my English textbook. However, it feels a little bit strange to me. Shouldn't it be something like:
How much did you buy the wallet for?
For how much did you buy the wallet?
Aside from being idiomatic or not, is this sentence grammatically correct?
Top Answer/Comment:
"How much did you buy the wallet?" isn't grammatically incorrect, but it doesn't make any semantic sense. It essentially means: "To what extent/degree did you buy the wallet?" This question is nonsensical, so presumably they made a mistake by not including the "for."
