Literally

Used liberally but rarely literally. “I was literally dying of embarrassment.” No, you weren’t.
Oh yeah, I literally hate it when people use the word literally when they're speaking figuratively.

Yes, they are synonyms, however the traditional usage is that enquiry is used in relation to asking a question, whereas inquiry is used in the context of deeper probing, such as an official investigation. e.g. public inquiry (as in the Inquires Act 2005), fatal accident inquiry, judicial inquiry etc.
