jmnixon, I need to know this for German. What really is the difference between wohnen and woher?

I'm not sure what you are asking.
Maybe I'm 45 or 50% sure, but I want to give a thorough answer to your question.

So when you ask where someone lives, you fragt, 'Wo wohnen Sie?' That means, as you may have learned, 'Where do you live?'
'Woher' roughly translates into 'where from', so if you ask a new acquaintance, 'Woher kommst du?', you are asking where they're from.
Hope that's what you needed...

einhunderteinunddreissig

So by itself, wohnen is a verb and woher is an adverb?

And... dont aus and von both mean from? how are they different? Danke!! !!

einhundertvierunddreissig.

Wohnen is a verb, yes, it means "to reside". Woher is a question word meaning "from where".

aus and von can both mean from, but they differ in meaning a bit... let me try to explain it:
von can mean by as well: Dieses Lied ist von Gwem and Counter Reset (this song is/was written by GaCR)
The meaning is slightly different if used with countries or places: Ich komme aus Leverkusen (I am from Leverkusen) vs Ich komme von Leverkusen (I (just) arrived from Leverkusen).

Mmmm, maybe English/US keyboards aren't able to do so.. (bizarre, imo, but hey..) Don't know but you could copy/paste it also from this thread maybe.. or 'pre-write' in Words.. well, suit yourself, of course..
