Your opinion about the correctness of a sentence
 
Hi everyone,
I just wanted to ask you if the following sentence sounds good to you.
 
GIVE ME WHAT I ASKED YOU FOR YESTERDAY
 
or is it better to say?
 
GIVE ME WHAT I ASKED FOR YESTERDAY without specifying who you asked something for
 
My best wishes
Yolanda

Both are definitely correct. The second is especially appropriate if the person you are speaking to isn �t the person you made the request to yesterday.
