Over there

JLPT N5
Pattern

あそこ (place word)

How it works

あそこ means “over there”: a place far from both speaker and listener. It completes the set ここ (here), そこ (there, near you) and どこ (where?).

Examples

  • あそこに 銀行が あります。There's a bank over there.
  • あそこの 店は 安いです。That shop over there is cheap.
