Concise Oxford Paravia Italian Dictionary © 2009 Pearson Paravia Bruno Mondadori spa e Oxford University Press:
where /weə(r), AE hweər/ When used to introduce direct or indirect questions, where is generally translated by dove: where are the plates? = dove sono i piatti? do you know where he’s going? = sai dove sta andando? I don’t know where the knives are = non so dove sono i coltelli. Note that in indirect questions, where requires no inversion of the verb. - When a preposition is used with where as an adverb, the preposition follows the verb in English, but not in Italian: where do you come from? = da dove vieni? I don’t know where he comes from = non so da dove venga. - When used as a relative, where is translated by dove or in cui: the village where we live = il paese in cui / dove viviamo.
