Asking the way

Asking is the easy half. These are chosen so you can also follow the answer.

Why these go together

The trap with directions is that the question is simple and the reply comes back at speed. Most of these are things you will HEAR rather than say, which is why they are here and not just the question.

Où est la gare ?
Where is the station?
C'est très loin.
It is a long way.
C'est juste à côté.
It is right next door.
À droite.
On the right.
À gauche.
On the left.
Tout droit.
Straight ahead.
Literally: all straight
