kje, kam, od kod

Where and Where to

Level 1

Kje asks for a location, kam for a destination and od kod for an origin.

How It Works

Kje asks for a location, kam for a destination and od kod for an origin. The answer's preposition and case must express the same relationship.

Pair questions and answers by relationship: Kje? — v šoli; Kam? — v šolo; Od kod? — iz šole. Memorizing this three-way set prevents using a destination ending for a stationary location.
