and Ask, Inquire, Question, Interrogate. Ask is here also the generic word; it is simple and informal. Inquire may be used in the endeavor to be civil, or it may express a more minute examination into facts: as, to inquire (into, as to) the causes of discontent. To question in this sense implies the asking of a series of questions, it being supposed that the truth is hard to get at, through ignorance, reluctance, etc., in the person questioned. Interrogate is essentially the same as question, but more formal: as, to question a child or servant about his conduct; to interrogate a witness, an applicant for office, etc. Questioning or interrogation might be resented where asking, asking a question, or inquiring would meet with a friendly response.

To request or petition: with for before the thing requested: as, ask for bread.
