2. "ഇപ്പോഴേ ചോദിച്ചു" (ippolē chothicchu): This is similar to the first option but emphasizes that the asking happened very recently, almost immediately before the current moment.
3. "കുറച്ചു നേരം മുമ്പ് ചോദിച്ചു" (kurachu neram munp chothicchu): This translates to "asked a while ago" and implies a slightly longer time frame than "just asked."
4. "ഇപ്പോള് തന്നെ ചോദിച്ചു" (ippol thanne chothicchu): This emphasizes that the asking happened just now and could be used to convey urgency or immediacy.

The best option depends on the specific situation and the desired meaning.
