뜻
To pose an inquiry to someone.
문화적 배경
In Mexico, it is very common to use the diminutive 'preguntita' to sound more polite and less intrusive. In Spain, people are more direct. While 'hacer una pregunta' is used, it is often preceded by 'Oye' (Listen) or 'Mira' (Look) in informal settings. Argentines often use 'hacer una consulta' in situations that might be slightly more formal or professional, like at a bank or a store. In Colombia, especially in Medellín, the phrase is often accompanied by 'Qué pena' (I'm sorry/Excuse me) to show extreme politeness.
The 'Yo-Go' Rule
Remember that 'hacer' is a 'yo-go' verb. Whenever you talk about yourself, it's 'hago'. This is the most common mistake for beginners!
Avoid Redundancy
Never say 'preguntar una pregunta'. It's the #1 giveaway that you are translating literally from English.
