It depends what part of the UK you come from. Different regional dialects pronounce ask differently. It's the same between america and the UK.... Both countries speak the same language - the dialects have simply evolved over time.

As a general rule, it isn't. However, some people do say 'arsked' - some because of localised pronunciation and others trying to be amusing and copying actor Bernard Bresslaw from an old television comedy whose catchphrase was 'I only arsked'.

What is your name how can we convert same question in Hindi?

There are various ways to say 'What is your name?' in Hindi. The formal way is, 'Aapka nam kya hein?' Aapka is pronounced ap-kah, the 'a' like in are. The end should have slight nasal quality. Nam is pronounced nam, the 'a' like in are. Kya is pronounced kya, with an h sound at the end. Hein is pronounced ha, the a as in cat, with not so much of your breath coming out when you say the word. 'Tera/Tumara nam kya hein?' is the informal way of saying this, although when you ask one's you generally do not know them too well and thus you should only ask in the formal way. The sentence in Hindi literally translates as 'Your name what is?'


How do you spell the WORD conacth answer?

Other than the word "contact", as in "please contact me", it is very unclear what you are trying to spell. There does not seem to be a relatable word in the English language with the spelling you have given.Please try and re-ask the question again trying to spell it a different way. Or write in the question how it is pronounced instead of spelt. "Con-Acth" does not sound like any English word.
