    ASKED by steuieee on Wednesday, August 27, 2008 at 4:16 PM

    Are there times when it is appropriate to use "Ou est" and times when it is appropriate to use "Ou y a-t-il" or are they interchangeable? (I know that "ou est" is simply "where is" and "ou y a-t-il" is "where is there" or literally "where there has-it.")

      Où est is where is. Où y a-t-il is where is there? It is not exactly the same thing, so they are not interchangeable.

      Où est la salle de bain? Where is the bathroom.

      Où y a-t-il une salle de bain? Where is there a bathroom.

      I guess in one instance you know a bathroom exists, and you are asking where it is. In the second instance you are asking if a bathroom exists, and where it would be.
