Comments on: In Latin American Spanish, what is the difference between ”adonde” and ”donde?”? http://www.spanishlatinamerican.com/in-latin-american-spanish-what-is-the-difference-between-adonde-and-donde.html Spanish in Latin America and Spanish in Spain - learn it all Fri, 10 Sep 2010 12:59:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Dumbledore Is Gay!! =D http://www.spanishlatinamerican.com/in-latin-american-spanish-what-is-the-difference-between-adonde-and-donde.html/comment-page-1#comment-2353 Dumbledore Is Gay!! =D Sun, 25 Oct 2009 09:42:42 +0000 http://www.spanishlatinamerican.com/in-latin-american-spanish-what-is-the-difference-between-adonde-and-donde.html#comment-2353 The way I understand it, donde means 'where' and adonde means 'where to'. Donde is used when an object/person is stationary e.g. ¿dónde está mi libro? But if for example you wanted to talk about where you're going to on holiday ¿adónde vas a ir para tus vacaciones? Obviously they don't just have to be used in questions. I hope this helps =) The way I understand it, donde means ‘where’ and adonde means ‘where to’.

Donde is used when an object/person is stationary
e.g. ¿dónde está mi libro?

But if for example you wanted to talk about where you’re going to on holiday
¿adónde vas a ir para tus vacaciones?

Obviously they don’t just have to be used in questions.

I hope this helps =)

donde = "where?" (where is something)

There is so little difference between Peninsular and Latinamerican Spanish that there is no need to specify. Seriously. The only differences are vosotros and the direct object pronouns. a = to

donde = where.

adonde = to where

And it´s just Spanish.
