hvad sker her/der?


Explanation:
Fixed a small typo in this one.
This would be the closent translation. Her is applied if the question is about the local area, if you were asking a person directly at work what is going on. If you were to talk to a person with reasonable distance in between, you would say der, which equals 'there'. I would use der if I am talking with a friend over the phone.

This is the second answer to repair a typo in the first.
