ask about

Request details on

Ask about means to request information concerning a particular topic or person.

When you ask about something, you're seeking details, news, or an update: She asked about your health.

The phrase often implies genuine interest or concern rather than idle curiosity.

You might ask about job openings, ask about someone's family, or ask about the status of a project.
