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

'put questions to' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'some taskmasters' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'ASK' can be found hidden inside 'taskmasters'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ask that I've seen before include "Put a question" , "Inquire" , "Issue invitations" , "Make enquiry" , "Invite (to a party)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
