Shows curiosity (4)
I believe the answer is:
asks
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">shows curiosity</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for asks that I've seen before include "Poses a question" , "Requests information about" , "Puts a query" , "Solicits" , "Puts a question" .)
