Use <em>quando<\/em> to ask &#8220;when&#8221;. Both go at the front of the sentence, the verb follows directly, no auxiliary word in between. No special form for &#8220;where to&#8221;: Italian <em>dove vai<\/em> already means &#8220;where are you going to&#8221;. The only twists are a few small companions: <em>dov&#8217;\u00e8<\/em> (elided), <em>da\/di dove<\/em> for origin, <em>da quando<\/em> for &#8220;since when&#8221;, <em>a che ora<\/em> for specific clock times.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dove vai?<br><em>Where are you going?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando torni?<br><em>When are you coming back?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dove abita Lorenzo?<br><em>Where does Lorenzo live?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando comincia il corso?<br><em>When does the course start?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dove\">Dove: asking &#8216;where&#8217; and &#8216;where to&#8217;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The word <em>dove<\/em> covers two English questions at once: &#8220;where?&#8221; (location) and &#8220;where to?&#8221; (direction). Italian doesn&#8217;t add a preposition for direction. <em>Dove vai?<\/em> already carries the meaning &#8220;where are you going to?&#8221; without any extra word.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dove vai stamattina?<br><em>Where are you going this morning?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dove abiti adesso?<br><em>Where do you live now?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dove lavora tua sorella?<br><em>Where does your sister work?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dove sei?<br><em>Where are you?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dove ti trovi?<br><em>Where are you (right now)?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dove ha comprato quelle scarpe?<br><em>Where did she buy those shoes?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The verb that follows <em>dove<\/em> can be motion (<em>andare, venire, partire, arrivare<\/em>), state (<em>essere, stare, abitare, vivere, trovarsi<\/em>), or any action: italian dove quando questions work with all of them. The word order stays the same: <em>dove<\/em> + verb + subject (if expressed) + rest of sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This flexibility is one of the things that makes <em>dove<\/em> easier than its English counterpart. In English you sometimes need to choose between &#8220;where&#8221;, &#8220;where to&#8221;, &#8220;where from&#8221;; Italian compresses all three into a single word, helped by the verb itself or by a small preposition (<em>da<\/em>, <em>di<\/em>) when origin needs to be marked. The result: fewer choices, faster fluency at A1 level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dove-elision\">Dove becomes dov&#8217; before \u00e8<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When <em>dove<\/em> meets <em>\u00e8<\/em> (the third-person singular of <em>essere<\/em>), the final <em>e<\/em> drops and an apostrophe replaces it. The result is <em>dov&#8217;\u00e8<\/em>, pronounced as one breath.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dov&#8217;\u00e8 la stazione?<br><em>Where is the station?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dov&#8217;\u00e8 il bagno?<br><em>Where is the bathroom?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dov&#8217;\u00e8 Caterina?<br><em>Where is Caterina?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Dov&#8217;\u00e8 il mio telefono?<br><em>Where is my phone?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The elision is mandatory in writing as well as speech. Writing <em>dove \u00e8<\/em> instead of <em>dov&#8217;\u00e8<\/em> is a common beginner mistake. With other forms of <em>essere<\/em> (<em>sono, siete, sei, sono<\/em>) <em>dove<\/em> stays unchanged: <em>dove sono i bambini? dove siete? dove sei?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-task-dq-1\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83c\udfaf <strong>Mini-challenge:<\/strong> Choose between <em>dove<\/em> and <em>dov&#8217;\u00e8<\/em>.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>____ il tuo cane?<\/li>\n<li>____ vai stasera?<\/li>\n<li>____ i bambini?

(motion now)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Da dove arrivate?<br><em>Where are you arriving from?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Da dove parte il treno?<br><em>Where does the train leave from?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Di dove sei?<br><em>Where are you from? (origin, identity)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Di dove siete voi due?<br><em>Where are you two from?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Di dov&#8217;\u00e8 Margherita?<br><em>Where is Margherita from?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two forms overlap in casual speech (<em>da dove sei?<\/em> is also heard), but the textbook split is: <em>di dove + essere<\/em> for origin as a characteristic, <em>da dove + motion verb<\/em> for direction of movement. If you stick to <em>di dove sei?<\/em> when meeting someone new, you&#8217;ll always sound natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"quando\">Quando: asking &#8216;when&#8217;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The word <em>quando<\/em> is the all-purpose Italian &#8220;when&#8221;. It opens questions about time without modification, and like <em>dove<\/em> it goes straight at the front of the sentence, followed by the verb.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Quando torni a casa?<br><em>When are you coming home?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando sei partita?<br><em>When did you leave?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando comincia il corso di italiano a Padova?<br><em>When does the Italian course in Padova start?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando scrivi a tua madre?<br><em>When are you writing to your mother?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando arriva il treno per Lecce?<br><em>When does the train to Lecce arrive?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando sei libera per un caff\u00e8?<br><em>When are you free for a coffee?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Italian doesn&#8217;t change <em>quando<\/em> based on the tense. The same word works for present (<em>quando vieni?<\/em>), past (<em>quando sei partita?<\/em>), and future (<em>quando arriver\u00e0?<\/em>). The verb does all the tense work; <em>quando<\/em> stays the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The word also doubles as a connector in declarative sentences: <em>quando torno a casa, mi metto in cucina<\/em> (&#8220;when I get home, I start cooking&#8221;). This is the same <em>quando<\/em>, used to introduce a subordinate clause of time. The question and the connector share a form, and Italian readers tell them apart from the question mark and from sentence position. For now, focus on the question use; the connector role will come naturally as you read more Italian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One small note on register. In writing and in slightly formal speech, <em>quando<\/em> sometimes pairs with an inverted verb order for emphasis: <em>quando comincia il corso?<\/em> versus the slightly more emphatic <em>quando il corso comincia?<\/em>. Both are correct; the first is the everyday default and the only one A1 learners need to produce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"da-quando\">Da quando and fino a quando<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two small additions to <em>quando<\/em> handle &#8220;since when&#8221; and &#8220;until when&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Da quando lavorate in biblioteca?<br><em>Since when have you been working at the library?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Da quando vivi a Trieste?<br><em>Since when have you lived in Trieste?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Fino a quando resti a Modena?<br><em>Until when are you staying in Modena?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Fino a quando dura lo spettacolo?<br><em>Until when does the show last?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Italian typically pairs <em>da quando<\/em> with the present tense when the action is still ongoing (English would use the present perfect: &#8220;since when have you been working?&#8221;). This is one of the few places where Italian and English use different tenses for the same idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"quando-vs-ora\">Quando vs a che ora: general or specific<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you want to know a specific clock time, Italian switches from <em>quando<\/em> to <em>a che ora<\/em> (&#8220;at what time&#8221;). <em>Quando<\/em> stays for general time references (which day, which season, which week); <em>a che ora<\/em> takes over for hours and minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A che ora apre il mercato?<br><em>What time does the market open?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>A che ora chiude la farmacia?<br><em>What time does the pharmacy close?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>A che ora ci vediamo?<br><em>What time shall we meet?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>A che ora parte il treno per Verona?<br><em>What time does the train to Verona leave?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Quando vai dal medico?<br><em>When are you going to the doctor&#8217;s? (general: which day)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>A che ora vai dal medico?<br><em>What time are you going to the doctor&#8217;s? (specific: which hour)<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For opening hours, Italian combines both: <em>da che ora a che ora siete aperti?<\/em> means &#8220;from what time to what time are you open?&#8221;. This is the standard way to ask a shop or office about their hours of operation. Italians often shorten it in casual speech to <em>da che ora a che ora?<\/em>, letting the context fill in the rest. You&#8217;ll hear this phrasing at any reception desk, ticket office, or pharmacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"answers\">How to answer dove and quando questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Italian answers to italian dove quando questions usually start with the location or time directly. No &#8220;it is&#8221; filler needed.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>: Dove andiamo se vogliamo mangiare una bistecca?<br><em>Where do we go if we want to eat a steak?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Alla trattoria.<br><em>To the trattoria.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Dove andiamo se dobbiamo comprare un antibiotico?<br><em>Where do we go if we need to buy an antibiotic?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: In farmacia.<br><em>To the pharmacy.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Dove andiamo se vogliamo bere un espresso?<br><em>Where do we go if we want an espresso?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Al bar.<br><em>To the bar.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Quando comincia il corso?<br><em>When does the course start?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Luned\u00ec prossimo.<br><em>Next Monday.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: A che ora apre la biblioteca?<br><em>What time does the library open?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>: Alle nove.<br><em>At nine.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The answer matches the preposition pattern of the question. <em>Dove andiamo?<\/em> answers with <em>in\/a\/al<\/em> + place (see our guide on Italian in vs a). <em>A che ora?<\/em> answers with <em>alle<\/em> + hour. <em>Quando?<\/em> can answer with a day (<em>luned\u00ec<\/em>), a date, a season, or an adverb of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mistakes\">Common mistakes<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Writing <em>dove \u00e8<\/em> instead of <em>dov&#8217;\u00e8<\/em>.

For the dictionary view, the Treccani entries on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/dove\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dove<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/quando\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quando<\/a> give a complete picture in standard Italian.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What&#8217;s the difference between dove and dov&#8217;\u00e8?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Dove is the basic word for where. Dov&#8217;\u00e8 is the elided form of dove + \u00e8 (third-person singular of essere). The elision is mandatory in both writing and speech: write dov&#8217;\u00e8, not dove \u00e8. With other forms of essere (sono, sei, siete) and with any other verb, dove stays unchanged: dove sono i bambini, dove abiti, dove vai.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Da dove or di dove?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Da dove pairs with verbs of motion: da dove vieni, da dove parte il treno, da dove arrivate. Di dove pairs with essere when you ask about origin as identity: di dove sei, di dov&#8217;\u00e8 Margherita, di dove siete voi due. In casual speech the two overlap, but di dove sei is the textbook way to ask where someone is from when introducing yourself.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Do I need to add &#8216;to&#8217; with dove for direction?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. Italian dove already includes the meaning where to. Dove vai means where are you going (to), dove va il treno means where is the train going (to). Don&#8217;t translate the English to. The same applies to dove + other motion verbs: dove andiamo, dove parti, dove torni.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Quando or a che ora?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Use quando for general time questions, a che ora for specific clock times. Quando comincia il corso asks which day or which season; a che ora apre la farmacia asks for the precise hour. Both can sometimes work for the same situation, but a che ora signals you want a clock time as the answer. For opening hours: da che ora a che ora siete aperti.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How do I say &#8216;since when&#8217; in Italian?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Use da quando + verb. Da quando vivi a Trieste means since when have you been living in Trieste. Note that Italian usually pairs da quando with the present tense for ongoing actions, while English uses the present perfect. The same logic applies to da + time expressions: lavoro qui da tre anni means I have been working here for three years.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q6\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How do I say &#8216;until when&#8217;?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Use fino a quando + verb. Fino a quando resti a Modena means until when are you staying in Modena. The form fino a che ora is the clock-time equivalent: fino a che ora resta aperto il museo means until what time does the museum stay open. Same construction, two levels of precision.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-dq-q7\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Does dove work with non-motion verbs?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes. Dove sei, dove abiti, dove vivi, dove lavori, dove ti trovi, dove studia tua sorella are all valid. Italian dove is not restricted to motion verbs; it works as a general where with any verb.
