§Grammar and usage
Where as a relative adverb ('the house where I live' = 'the house in which I live'; not 'the house where I live in'); indirect questions use statement order ('Do you know where she lives?', not 'where does she live'); where is not used for time ('the day when', not 'the day where').
यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: relative adverb के रूप में where ('the house where I live' = 'the house in which I live'; 'the house where I live in' नहीं); अप्रत्यक्ष प्रश्नों में कथन का क्रम ('Do you know where she lives?', 'where does she live' नहीं); समय के लिए where प्रयुक्त नहीं होता ('the day when', 'the day where' नहीं)।
