How do you say "Is it far from here?" in Japanese?

Quick use

Use ここからとおいですか (kokokara tooi desu ka) in or around stations when you ask whether it is far. It works well when you want a short answer instead of a long explanation.

Chunk or pattern

• Reusable pattern: 〜 とおい ですか
• Replace the 〜 part with the thing, place, document, item, or action you need in that scene.

Helper words and endings

• ですか: polite question ending.

Practical note

Station staff usually answer faster if they can also see the destination, map, or route on your phone.
