文章の後にも書いて大丈夫ですよ。But only in spoken sentences. Not formal writing.

Will you clean the kitchen? If it's not asking too much.
Will you drive to the store and buy some milk? If it's not asking too much.

A: "I asks" is always incorrect.

I ask
you ask
he/she asks
we ask
you (plural) ask
they ask

He/she asks is only used for a 3rd person singular subject with a simple present affirmative (not negative) statement.

For your sentence, it will always be "ask" no matter who the subject is.

What should I ask?
What should you ask? (singular)
What should he ask?
What should we ask?
What should you ask? (plural)
What should they ask?

A: Don’t ask me = ask someone else, not me because I don't know
Don’t ask me why = don't ask me about this specific thing because I don't want to talk about it

A: All the same meaning but last one is incorrect.

Last one should be “I asked if she spoke English”

A: You ask a question. You tell a statement.

A: -If I ask you for your permission to go to my friends house and you say "no", I can't go, because I asked for your permission and you didn't let/allow me.
-opinion is just 'your thoughts' on what I tell you. or your thoughts about anything
example. "Hey dad, I might go to my friends house to hang out"
Dad: "hmm it's raining outside I don't 'think' you should go"
"it's okay he's picking me up in his car, I'll be home before dinner, bye".
The dads opinion is that he shouldn't go or he thinks he shouldn't go. But there is no force stopping me from leaving
-kind of tricky to explain but I hope this helped, if you'd like I can give more example sentences 😊

→ How do you say “What I’m asking” in U.S. English?

"How could the ancient Egyptians have been using aircraft” this is also correct.

A: Check the question to view the answer

A: Can I ask you a question?

A: It's OK, I guess. For whatever reason, I really hear

way more.

A: This seems like a statement, not a question. Is there a reason why you added a question mark?

Apart from this, the sentence is perfect.

A: 왜 모르겠지만 우리는 "ass-ked" 말하지 않고 "ass-ed" 대신에 말해요.

You could also say “He’s going to be angry.” for the second sentence!
