Questions
Are these questions correct?
Where does he park his car near to? What is there behind the church? What are there next to the park? At he end of what is his house? Where does he have a flat close to? Where is his house near to? What's his flat next to? Where does he live at weekends? What is there in front of his house? What is his house opposite? Where are the shops next to? They sound a bit stilteld but according to the exercise they seem correct to me. Any suggestions ?? |

For example: Where are you going? -- I'm going to the store. What is that over there? -- That is the mall. In the cases of "there" such as "What is there behind the church?" This is a correct sentence. Normally you would just say "What is behind the church?" The only time I use "there" is when I am adding some specific that I care about and it still is optional. For example: "What is (there) behind the church for photographs?" "What is (there) at the mall for kids?" The "there" is still not required, but it is more commonly used then. |

Asking what certain places are next to such as "Where are the shops next to?" isn't incorrect, but it sounds just a bit awkward. It's more common to ask the question the other way around, such as "What is around the shops?" or "What else is in that area?"
But if you say "Where are the shops next to?" you will be understood just fine and it is correct to say. |
