"Where is the tourist from?"

Translation: Odkud je ta turistka?

[JamesTWils]

Why could this not be "Odkud je turist?"

[hella166755]

Because woman - turistka and man - turista (not turist).

[comandanteej]

why is "ta" required?

[VladaFu]

the specific tourist

[Reinhard693514]

Was my version 'odkud pochází ten turista?' rejected correctly? I don't see anything wrong with it...

[nueby]

I don't either, so I added it.
