Significado
To pose an inquiry.
Contexto cultural
In Spain, it is common to use '¿Te puedo hacer una pregunta?' even with strangers in a casual setting, using the 'tú' form more frequently than in many Latin American countries. In Mexico, 'hacer una consulta' is often preferred in professional settings (like a doctor's office or law firm) to sound more formal and respectful. Using 'disculpe' (excuse me) before '¿puedo hacer una pregunta?' is a very common way to show respect to elders or authorities.
The 'H' is Silent
Never pronounce the 'h' in 'hacer'. It starts with the 'a' sound.
Avoid Redundancy
Native speakers will understand 'preguntar una pregunta', but it marks you immediately as a beginner. Stick to 'hacer'.
