Pops the question? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

asks

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">pops the question?</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(popping the question is a kind of asking)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for asks that I've seen before include "Questions" , "Poses a question" , "Puts a question" , "is curious" , "Solicits" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
