Ask for address (4,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turn to

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'address' is the definition.
(I know that address can be written as turn to)

'ask for' is the wordplay.
'ask' becomes 'turn' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'for' becomes 'to' (eg both can mean 'in the opinion of').
'turn'+'to'='TURN TO'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for turn to that I've seen before include "Result in" , "Address" , "set about a task" , "Fall back on" , "Consult with" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
