Question

How do you ask "where do you live?" in korean, and are the following sentences correct? Thank You.
I don't know if they are correct or not...And I used 니 instead of 아/어...
1)너는 어디에서 사니?
2)어디 사니?

Answer

1) 너는 어디에서 사니? - correct, but 에 is more common than 에서 when talking about the location of residence.

에서 may be used when mentioning the activity or other details of living at a place, not simply the location.
E.g. 시골에서 살 때는 시간이 많아서 좋았다. (condition, activity)
E.g. 고래는 어디에서 살아요? 고래는 바다에서 살아요. (habitat)

2) 어디 사니? - correct and more colloquial, '에' is often dropped in conversation when asking about the location.
