-कडे

-कडे often goes with verbs of going and coming: जाणे, येणे. For a place, use -ला or -त: शाळेत जातो. For home or the village, घरी and गावी are used: घरी जातो. For a person, use -कडे.

It also means toward in the sense of a direction: तो आमच्याकडे पाहतो (he looks toward us).

With the same word, -कडे आहे shows that someone has something: माझ्याकडे सायकल आहे.

Words like काका and आजोबा take a respectful plural form: काकांकडे, आजोबांकडे. आजी and मामा often stay as they are: आजीकडे, मामाकडे.

A masculine or neuter plural noun takes -ांकडे: मित्रांकडे (at friends' place), मुलांकडे (to the children). A feminine plural that ends in -ी, like मैत्रिणी, takes -ींकडे: मैत्रिणींकडे.

-कडे also tells where someone stays: मी मावशीकडे राहतो (I stay at my aunt's). A man is speaking.

Both questions ask where: कुठे जाता? (where are you going?) and कोणाकडे जाता? (whose place are you going to?)
