I guess you could say that "ask" is formal English and "ax" is dialect, or local or cultural usage.

sounds like aah sss ka. ax is illiterate and lazy. people with half a brain enunciate.
from encarta:
ax [ aks ] or axe [ aks ]
noun (plural ax·es)
Definition:
1. tool for cutting: a tool consisting of a flat heavy metal head with a sharpened edge attached to a long handle, used to chop wood or fell trees

The only ax I know is "Axe".... Ask has always been ask, unless you say "ax' instead of 'ask.

"ask" is the correct verb, and intoxic8ed is wrong, it's not "ax" it's "axe" (for the thing that cuts down trees)
