Dzień dobry,
mam takie zdanie:
"There are no roads where we are going, so you must walk the whole distance."
Dlaczego nie ma przyimka "to" po "going"?
Czy było by niepoprawnie dodanie "to"?
At one time
whither was used to indicate
place to which and
whence to indicate
place from which. Both are pretty much archaic now.
Where has not absorbed the meaning of
whence and you should add
from to replace
whence. You
cannot say
where are you coming?
Where has absorbed the meaning of
whither and it is OK to say
where are you going?
However, if you really want to, you could emphasize the end of the path over the path itself by adding
to, as in
where did it go to?
Some claim that this additional
to is redundant and improper. You be conservative; but if the emphasis is called for, go for it.
