The French word ou often has the same meaning as the English word 'or' as well as it's other meaning which is the same as the English word "where". Addition by crisdean : To express the meaning of "where", there is a fada on the u of où.
But be aware that in some negative sentences the French word ni must be used instead of 'ou'.
For example the equivalent correct French wording for
"He hasn't seen or heard anything"
is:
"Il n'a rien vu ni entendu."
