WHERE and WERE may look almost alike but have completely different meanings.

WERE is the plural past tense of "to be": The cars were old. The children were dressed warmly. (Each action occurred in the past, and happened to more than one thing or person.)

WHERE refers to location, either physical or virtual: Where are you going? (To what place are you going?)

The word 'were' is a verb, a form of the verb 'to be'. Examples:

We were at the movies.

You were eating lunch.

They were not at home.

The word 'where' is an adverb, a conjunction, and a noun. Examples:

Adverb: Where are you going? (going where)

Conjunction: There is a place by the door where we put out shoes.

Noun: I know where that shop is.
