adonde

/aˈdonde/ · B1 · adv

to where, whither

🧭 adonde = a (to) + donde (where): literally to where

Spanish a means to, and donde means where, so adonde asks where you are heading. Donde comes from Latin de unde, from where. Written with an accent, adónde, it is the question form: ¿Adónde vas? means Where are you going?
