You are looking at a command called ask

ask "text"

ask {object} "text"

You can ask in the same way you can say.

If you name an object first you will ask that object. If the object chooses to respond you will get and answer.

eg ask the baker please can I have some bread
or
ask what should we do now?

read th command called say as anything you say that has a question mark in is converted into an ask.

eg say what should we do now?
or say what is the time? to bob

or if your really lazy just type what should we do now? as anything that is not a command is said/asked.
