Significado
Inquiring about something.
Contexto cultural
Asking about family is a standard social lubricant. It is common to 'give questions' about parents and children even in semi-professional settings. In Armenian schools, students are increasingly encouraged to 'give questions' to challenge the 'teacher-as-sole-authority' model. In Western Armenian communities, 'հարց տալ' remains the standard, though some English-influenced speakers might slip into 'հարց ընել' (Western dialect for 'make'), which is still considered an error. In Armenian business culture, asking direct questions about salary early in an interview was once taboo but is now becoming more common among the youth.
Use the Dative
Always remember the person you are asking is in the Dative case (ինձ, քեզ, նրան).
Avoid 'Anel'
Never say 'harts anel'. It's the most common marker of a beginner English-speaking learner.
