Does the nanda at the end of ここはどこなんだ mean "what"?


Does the なんだ at the end of

> **ここは** どこなんだ

mean "what"?

Reason I'm asking for help on such a obvious question is my brain thinks なんだ
is the explanatory んだ; which I know is wrong, but its the only answer my brain
is supplying at the moment. And I doubt "なんだ" is "what", as that would make
the full sentence translate as "What where is this place/here?" which does not
sound correct in the least bit of sense.




Yes, you are right in your speculation:

> なんだ is the explanatory んだ.
