1.“询问”和“问”都是动词。有征求一件和打听的意思。“询问”多用于书面语,而“问”多用于口语。
Both 询问and 问are verbs meaning “ to solicit opinions or to ask about”. 询问is used in literary works while 问is more casual.
(1)老师打电话来询问(问)你的近况。
(2)市长深入基层视察,并询问(问)了一下村民们的生活状况。
(3)他就这个问题专门询问(问)了专家。
2.“问”还有提出问题请解答,以及安慰、审讯、干预等意思,这时不能与“询问”互换。
问also means “ to raise a question, to express one’s solicitude, to interrogate, to internee, etc.”, so 询问cannot used here.
(1)我问他为什么不接我电话。
(2)替我问候一下你的家人。
(3)十年以前他就在此地隐居,从此不问世事。
