AW: Something Wrong with the following Code ?

Think of where / wo - wo would then translate as who!

Even worse: Who = wer And Where = Wo

Ask my father who was English teacher how often he read this ;)

Brigitte,

That is a bit too risky for me. Think of where / wo - wo would then
translate as who!

I prefer go to with the context ...

But English is a language _entirely_ made up of words adopted and adapted

from other languages ...

... which can only be an advantage for us non-native speakers. If we miss a
word in conversation we first can try the word out of or native language,
maybe it's understood, if not we still can try to explain what we want to
express.

which is bad enough. Don't start it in the english language.
