Ask nosy questions (3)
I believe the answer is:
pry
'ask nosy questions' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for pry that I've seen before include "Enquire too inquisitively" , "Be inquisitive" , "Snoop or lever" , "Look intrusively" , "Be nosy" .)
