How can I tell the username of the person who asked a question on Yahoo answers?
When I read questions on Yahoo answers, I can’t see the username of the user who asked the question. Is there a way to see that?

Not if they ask anonymously, or if you are on your phone. On PC you just hover over their avatar with the mouse.

If you cant see the Username inside the Question it is Likely that they are under Anonymous if thats the Situation you wont be able to see who they are Unfortunately

Click their avatar or mouse-over it and their username and other info will be visible, provided they aren't posting using the Anonymous (blue-face) feature.
Example: When I mouse-over your avatar, I can see your username is "X", you have 95 pts, and your account was created today.

Click on their user icon. So long as they haven't posted the question anonymously, that takes you to their profile. Name is at the top of the profile.
