Example sentence
先生に 聞いてみます。How 聞く is used
聞く also means to ask or to inquire. When used with the particle に (e.g., 先生に聞く), it indicates asking a person for information. Although the kanji 訊く specifically means to inquire, the common kanji 聞く is typically used for both hearing and asking. 聞く can mean both - to listen and to ask. The meaning is understood from context.
