Questions & Answers about ¿Cuál es tu correo electrónico?

Why do we use Cuál instead of Qué to ask 'What is your email?'
In English, we say 'What is...', but in Spanish, when you ask to identify personal information like an email address, phone number, or name using the verb es (is), you use Cuál (which). You can think of it as asking 'Out of all the emails in the world, which one is yours?'
Why doesn't the word tu have an accent mark here?
In Spanish, tu without an accent mark means 'your' (as in tu correo). The version with an accent mark, tú, means 'you'. The accent mark simply exists to help you tell these two identical-sounding words apart in writing.
Why is the word order correo electrónico instead of electrónico correo?
In Spanish, descriptive words (adjectives) usually come right after the thing they describe (the noun). Correo means 'mail' and electrónico means 'electronic', so it translates literally to 'mail electronic'.
Why does Cuál have an accent mark on the letter 'a'?
All question words in Spanish, such as qué, cómo, dónde, and cuál, require a written accent mark. This tells you it is being used to ask a question rather than just making a statement.
