Thread: здесь, вот, тут

Hi!

Would you tell me a difference between здесь , вот and тут? They all mean "here".

I haven't been here yet. Я ещё не был здесь/тут.
Here is my house. Мой дом находится здесь/тут. Or -> Вот/здесь/тут мой дом.
What are you doing here? Что ты делаешь здесь/тут?

Are all versions right?

everything is right,

здесь is neutral, тут is more informal - but they mean the same.

вот is similar to French voila, voici (or here it is, here they are, etc. E.g. - Вот и он - Here he is, Here he is coming here)

Nice explanation, Alex!

I can't believe I have all sentences correct x)

Would you also confirm this? ->

I haven't been here yet. Я ещё не был вот. Wrong
What are you doing here? Что ты делаешь вот? Wrong

Here is my house ->
Мой дом находится здесь/тут. Is находится optional? In other words, can I omit it?
Вот/здесь/тут находится мой дом. Are these three versions correct with находится? Maybe the sentence "Вот находится мой дом" is wrong, isn't it?

you are doing brilliant George,

my stamp of approval on all you have said

i think you got the point of вот/здесь/тут

Thanks a lot
