"Where is your country?"

Translation: Kie estas via lando?

[MauriceDun]

Is this the same as asking where someone is from?

[Luis_Domingos]

No, you're just asking where their country is located; it's implies that the person already told you where he/she's from and that you suck at geography if you need to ask where that is ;)

[Sugarfoot1001]

Can you say "kien via lando"?

[coronalingo]

No. You are missing the verb.

[Argyle11]

I'm guessing grammatical word order here would be quite free. What can move and what can't?

Why "Kie estas la via lando." is incorrect?

[LouisSepdekdu]

"La via lando" is incorrect.

[DavidLamb53073]

I know this is an old message, but I have only just come across it. "La via" is like "yours" in English. "My country is in Europe. Where is yours?" In Esperanto, that would be: "Mia lando estas en Eûropo. Kie estas la via?"

[megafighter_x]

Directly translated: where is the your country?

[CarbonScythe]

If the word ends with -a like "via" does it mean it possessive?

[JoshLingo1800]

Only if it is a pronoun, other than that they will act like adjectives
