Usage Note
Preguntar means to ask a question, and should not be confused with pedir, which means to ask for something (request). Use preguntar with por to ask about someone's whereabouts: preguntó por ti = 'she asked about you'. The reflexive preguntarse means 'to wonder'.
Examples
"Voy a preguntar por el precio."
Natural Translation
I'm going to ask about the price.
