• The word meaning to ask for something is biddan.
• When asking "to ask", the thing being asked about, or the question being asked, is usually put in the genitive case, and the person being asked in the accusative case. Putting the thing being asked about in the accusative, and the person being asked in the dative is also attested. Marking the thing being asked about with a preposition like be or æfter is also common.
