我去打听一下新闻。

Wǒ qù dǎtīng yīxià xīnwén.

I’ll go ask around and find out what’s going on.

你可以向朋友打听一下这件事情。

Nǐ kěyǐ xiàng péngyou dǎting yíxià zhè jiàn shìqing.

You can ask your friends about this.

这是他的私事，我不方便打听。

Zhè shì tā de sīshì, wǒ bù fāngbiàn dǎting.

That’s his private business, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to ask.
