How should I ask for the company's location?




# Problem

> ミイちゃんのかいしゃはどちらですか

This actually could be used to ask for the location. But as you mentioned, it
could also mean "Which company do you belong (work) in?" So here are some
alternatives:

* * *

# Alternatives

## ミイちゃんのかいしゃはどちらにありますか

_Where does ミイちゃんのかいしゃ exist?_

  * This will **not** mean "Which company do you belong (work) in?"
  * This could mean either "Where" (absolute) or "Which direction" (relative).
  * This works for companies, countries, and schools.

* * *

## ミイちゃんのかいしゃのばしょはどちらですか

## ミイちゃんのかいしゃのばしょはどちらにありますか

_Where is the location of ミイちゃんのかいしゃ？_

  * This will **not** mean "Which company do you belong (work) in?"
  * This could mean either "Where" (absolute) or "Which direction" (relative).
  * This works for companies, countries, and schools.

* * *

## ミイちゃんのかいしゃのじゅうしょはどちらですか

_Where is the address of ミイちゃんのかいしゃ？_

  * This works for companies and schools, but **not** for countries.

* * *

# じゅうしょ and しょざいち

じゅうしょ means address, and it's a common word. However actually, じゅうしょ is an
address for people to live in, such as houses. For company address, the
correct term would be しょざいち. But practically, most people just use じゅうしょ even
for company addresses.
