Removing 'ask' from words to avoid #21

Closed esmerel closed 5 years ago

esmerel commented 5 years ago

MMS does not say to avoid "Ask" - ask is preferred to 'request', per https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/a/ask

This test also causes a conflict with microsoft.ComplexWords, which states explicitly to use ask instead of request.

my god, I can't read. This should be the other way around - remove 'ask' and not request.
