Where you usually eat?
Ou tu manges d'habitude?
I was wondering for asking the question, where the d'habitude goes? End of sentence?
And for answering...
Je manges au restaurant d'habitude.
or
D'habitude, je manges au restaurant.
or
Je manges d'habitude au restaurant.
Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. The best word order for a question is to use inversion. Also, if an accent is required on a word, be sure it is there.
Où manges-tu.....?
As for where "d'habitude" goes that is YOUR choice; you could beging with it or end with it, as you have.
In the statement, be sure the ending of the verb corresponds with the subject = Je mange...then I'd select the first or second, but NOT the third as the best choices.

In the sentence "Où tu manges d'habitude?" (Where do you usually eat?), the word "d'habitude" functions as an adverb and means "usually" in English. It provides additional information about the frequency or regularity of the action.
Regarding the placement of "d'habitude" in the sentence, there are a few possible options:
1. At the end of the sentence:
"Où tu manges d'habitude?" This is the most common placement for "d'habitude" in French. It emphasizes the "usually" aspect of the question.
2. At the beginning of the sentence:
"D'habitude, je manges au restaurant." This structure also works well and places emphasis on "usually." Here, "je manges" means "I eat."
3. After the verb, but before the place:
"Je mange d'habitude au restaurant." This placement is less common, but it's grammatically correct.
To answer your question, you have provided a few different options:
1. "Je manges au restaurant d'habitude." This sentence is structured with the adverb "d'habitude" placed at the end of the sentence. It means "I usually eat at the restaurant."
2. "D'habitude, je manges au restaurant." Here, "d'habitude" is placed at the beginning of the sentence to emphasize "usually." The sentence means "Usually, I eat at the restaurant."
3. "Je manges d'habitude au restaurant." In this case, "d'habitude" is placed after the verb and before the place. This sentence also means "I usually eat at the restaurant."
All three options are grammatically correct and convey the same meaning, with slight differences in emphasis.
