where 句型怎么讲 简单的两个词合在一起

英语学习其实是很有趣的过程，只要，你把它代入到日常的生活当中~而有的时候，明明两个熟悉得不能再熟悉的单词组合起来出现在你的眼前，你反而会变得犹豫，不知道自己所猜想的是否对路？

这不元旦放假了嘛，我们的外教 Tony 就想约着会计小刘一起打个保龄球，平时这哥俩一个住东城、一个住西城，互相没串过门儿，所以Tony就问了小刘这么一句话："Whereabouts in Guomao do you live?" 小刘听过爽朗的回答道："啊，你是问我们家边儿上的国贸怎么样啊，呵呵，还凑合吧，但那儿的保龄球赛道挺陈旧的了！"

唉，所以有时候这话赶话就容易闹出笑话，其实Tony问的是"你住在国贸的什么地方?" 他好去找他。好啦，今天就和大家说一下这个“whereabouts ”吧，它可不是简单的"where abouts"哟，更不能把 where 当成定语从句来理解哈！

whereabouts ['hwerə.baʊts]

n. 下落；行踪；（人或物）所在的地方；去向；行止；着落

adv. 在哪里；在何处

【En】Used to ask in what general area something or someone is. 用来询问某人或某事的大致区域范围。The place or area where someone or something is. 某人或某物所在的地方或区域。

If you refer to the whereabouts of a particular person or thing, you mean the place where that person or thing may be found. 如果你指的是一个特定的人或物的下落，你指的是那个人或物可能被发现的地方。You use whereabouts, usually in questions, when you are asking or talking about where something or someone is exactly. 当你询问或谈论某人或某物的确切位置时，通常用在疑问句中。

往好的方面想，我们可以为彼此的行踪做担保。

好啦，搞明白了 whereabouts 的含义，那就先来听一些例句吧，看看它是怎么被用在日常对话之中的~
