<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">invited</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for asked that I've seen before include "Inquired" , "Put a question to" , "Demanded" , "Questioned" , "Requested" .)
