Where? - Ki bò? or Ki kote?

There are two ways to ask "where" in Haitian Creole.

Where → ki bò?
Where → ki kote?  (if you use "ki kote", you may drop the word "ki", see example below)

Use either of them in any sentences you choose.

1. Where are you from?
    Ki kote ou sòti?  or
    Kote ou sòti?

2. Where are you going?
    Ki kote ou prale?  or
    Kote ou prale?

3. Where should we sit?
    Ki  bò nou dwe chita?

4. Where can I find good Haitian food?
    Ki bò mwen kab jwenn bon manje Ayisyen?

5. Where is this going?
    Ki kote sa prale? or
    Kote sa prale?

and if your sentence is not a question...

6. I can see where this is going.
   Mwen ka wè kote sa prale.

7. I didn't know where you were.
    Mwen  pat konnen ki bò ou ye?
