Sentence: What size towels do you need? #1 (permalink) Thu Apr 30, 2009 9:11 am   Sentence: What size towels do you need?
 

Hello,

I have a question on the sentence below:

"What size towels do you need?"

I think 'of' should be inserted between 'size' and 'towels'. If not, is 'what size towels' a common expressions?

Thanks,

Good morning SP,

'is what size towels' a common expressions? Only when buying them in a store, or ordering from the reception when staying in an hotel and asking for more.

Face towel, hand towel and bath towel.

" of " can be optionally used.
