I asked about her opinion vs I asked her opinion

Both phrases are correct, but they have slightly different meanings and contexts. 'I asked about her opinion' implies that you inquired about what her opinion is on a particular topic. 'I asked her opinion' means that you requested her opinion directly without specifying the topic. The choice between the two depends on whether you want to know her opinion on something specific or just want her general opinion.
