"Which side is he going from?"

Translation: Hangi taraftan gidiyor?

[jay.hammer]

Hi. What is wrong with 'hangi taraftan o gidiyor'?

[mizinamo]

Usually, the question word or phrase is closest to the verb as that's where the place for "new information" is (including questions that ask for information).

So if you want to say "he" explicitly, then "O, hangi taraftan gidiyor?" would be a better word order.

going from? Is that English? I just know coming from and going to

"Which side is he going from?"
Translation: Hangi taraftan gidiyor?

Coming from - Oradan gelme or oradan geldim.

Going to - Gidiyorum - Oraya gidiyorum. Oraya - (adverb)

Taraf - side.

Ne taraftan? - From which direction? & From which side?

Taraftan - Direction as in 360 degrees in my opinion. Any direction.

Thank you.

Hangi yönden gidiyor. ..

[MrHilmiNevzat]

Fantastic answer & as close to "direction" as I know. A like ^ & a lingot.

tan : from : d'où

Hangi taraftan geliyor ?

????? Je ne comprends pas. Who can explain me? thank you so much.

[mizinamo]

gelmek - come - venir

gitmek - go - aller

Also, -den is "from" = "de", not "d'où" (from where = nereden)

Thank you very much ... I will try to understand .... It is still a bit dark for me ;)

I think the verb should be « geliyor » not « gidiyor » because we « go to », we « come from ». Thank you

Why no mu, mi or musun at the end to indicate a question?

[mizinamo]

mi is for yes-no questions and for "pick one" questions.

WH questions with a question word ("who, how, which, why, ...") do not use mi.

This sentence has the WH question word hangi "which".

[SusanV996158]

Ah! That's perfectly clear. Thanks!

In English, the expression would never be "going from" in this context. It should be either "coming from" or "going to"
