it was, you quite literally asked a question.
But what is a question you might ask?
According to ThoughCo. a question "is a type of sentence expressed in a form that requires—or at least appears to require—an answer." The reason your question was not a statement was because you weren't giving a command/order, making a statement, or expressing an emotion/exclamation.
Questions come in 3 common types
1: Yes/No questions
2: Wh- Questions
3: Alternative questions
Your question was a "Wh- Question", but what is a "Wh- Question?"
Wh- Questions are sentences that start with words beginning with the letters "Wh" such as who, whom, whose, what, which, where, when, why, and how. These questions are used when your expecting a phrase or clause as an answer rather than a simple yes or no.
A good example of a Wh- question is what i started the previous sentence with, "what is a 'Wh- Question?" because it starts with the word what, is looking for a clause, phrase, or answer that is more complex than Yes or No, and does not give a command/order, make a statement, or express an emotion/exclamation.
So now that you know what a question is take some time and think before you comment whatever
pathetic slag your brain is able to draft using its miniscule literary knowledge.
