Is this translation of "When are you going to that person's house?" correct?


> あなたはあの人の家に行くことはいつですか

Is that correct or natural?

Some people translate it as

> あなたはいつあの人の家にいくんですか

or:

> いつあなたはあの人の家に行くんですか

I have trouble using `いつ`, is there any rule to it? you can put it in any part
of a sentence?




> あなたはあの人の家に行くことはいつですか

I would say it as 「あなた **が** あの人の家に行く **の** はいつですか。」  
This sounds like "When is it that you're going to that person's house?" rather
than "When are you going to that person's house?"

* * *

> あなたはいつあの人の家にいくんですか  
>  いつあなたはあの人の家に行くんですか

Both sound fine to me, and their fundamental meanings are the same (though
they might have different nuances or focuses). You would still be understood
if you said it as あなたはあの人の家にいつ行くんですか. In Japanese, the word order is often
flexible (the verb comes at the end in normal sentences though) as long as
you're using the right particles for the right words.
