Learn Dutch: Waar is ons kantoor? - Where is our office?

In Dutch, "our" translates to either ons or onze. You use ons for singular het words, and onze for de words. Because "office" is het kantoor, we must use ons kantoor.

How would this sentence change if we were asking about multiple offices?

All plural nouns in Dutch act as de words, so the possessive word for "our" must change to onze. The verb and noun would also become plural, making the sentence: Waar zijn onze kantoren? (Where are our offices?).

Where is the emphasis placed when saying the word "kantoor"?

The stress is on the second syllable: kan-TOOR. The double 'o' gives it a long vowel sound.

The word order is exactly like English ("Waar is..."). Is that normal for Dutch questions?

Yes! When a question starts with a question word like Waar (where), Wat (what), or Wie (who), the verb comes immediately after it. In these cases, the Dutch word order lines up perfectly with English.
