Suggesting that asking is wise.
خلفية ثقافية
In Denmark, managers value employees who ask questions. It is seen as a sign of responsibility, not incompetence. The 'no stupid questions' rule is very strong. Students are encouraged to challenge and clarify everything. Asking about dietary needs or house rules is considered 'god stil' (good style) and helps maintain the hygge. Danish bureaucracy can be complex; officials generally prefer you ask for clarification rather than submitting wrong forms.
Use 'lige'
Add 'lige' to sound more native: 'Det er en god idé lige at spørge.' It makes the suggestion sound smaller and more casual.
The 'At/Og' Trap
Never write 'og spørge' in this context. It's a hallmark of a learner (or a sloppy native speaker).

No, it's actually very professional. It shows you are thinking about the best way to work.
'Spørge' is general. 'Forhøre' is more like 'to inquire' or 'to interrogate' and is much more formal.
Absolutely. It's a great way to end an email: 'Jeg tænkte, det var en god idé at spørge.'
Just change 'er' to 'var': 'Det var en god idé at spørge.'
'Idé' is a plan or a concept. 'Tanke' is a thought. You wouldn't usually say 'Det er en god tanke at spørge,' though it's not strictly wrong.
Yes, very similar versions exist: 'Det er en god idé å spørre' (Norwegian) and 'Det är en bra idé att fråga' (Swedish).
Because 'idé' is a common gender noun (en-køn). 'Godt' is only for neuter nouns (et-køn).
