Any refers to questions: Do you want to ask us any questions? You can also say: Do you want to put any questions to us?

Why don't we use 'place' or 'offer'? Those sound more reasonable to me than 'put'. 'Consider' sounds just wrong so it's out of the question for me.

Hi Nadee,

We seem to be on a different wavwlength. Do you really 'place' or 'offer' questions to anyone? I wouldn't.

No I wouldn't.. neither would I put them to anyone... that's the reason I'm asking. For the term "to ask questions" I new synonyms like: interrogate, quiz, inquire, interview etc. so I'm new to this one. It seems to be one of those idioms you have to learn by heart, right? That's something I can accept even if it makes no sense to me.
