heeft naar gevraagt / na gevraagd / nagevraagd

[logicgate]

Are both correct :

> Uw man heeft me er net na gevraagd.

> Uw man heeft me er net naar gevraagd.

And this as well

> Uw man heeft me er net nagevraagd.

?

[LeSNT2]

Only the second one is correct. It's 'vragen naar' and not 'vragen na'.

So only "Uw man heeft me er net naar gevraagd." is correct.

We do have a verb 'navragen' but then it would be "Uw man heeft het net nagevraagd." The meaning is slightly different.

"Uw man heeft me er net naar gevraagd." means "Your husband just asked me about it."
"Uw man heeft het net nagevraagd." means "Your husband just checked."

What's the difference?
There are three people involved here. Person A (you), person B (your husband), person C (me).

In the first sentence person B asked person C about something and person C is telling person A about that question.
In the second sentence person B asked someone (unknown) and an unknown person (could be unknown 1 or C or someone else) is telling person A about that question.

Hope you get the difference!
