In the sentence "¿Adónde suele ir?", please explain "suele."

Question

Someone is asking someone where she goes on vacation.

Answer 1

Suele is from the verb soler. Your sentence is a little odd for us English speakers because we have to translate the verb as an adverb ("usually") in this case:"Where do you usually go?" In the past tenses, the verb "soler" is usually the equivalent of "used to" in English, as in "We used to go to the mountains every summer."

Answer 2

Where do you usually go?

Answer 3

They are asking them in a polite way (Ud.) Where do you usually go?
