意思
Asking about a location.
文化背景
Germans are very direct. If you ask 'Wo?', they will give you the most efficient path. Don't be surprised if they don't use much small talk before answering. In Vienna, you might hear 'Wo samma?' (Wo sind wir?) used colloquially to mean 'What's going on here?' or 'Where are we at?' in a figurative sense. Swiss German often uses 'Wo' as a relative pronoun more frequently in daily speech than High German does.
The Dative Rule
Always remember: 'Wo' is static and usually takes the Dative case in the answer.
Don't say 'Wo gehst du?'
This is the most common mistake for English speakers. Use 'Wohin' for movement!
