[tu-da] - there
To there, towards that place
• Пойдём туда.
[pay-dyom tu-da]
Let's go there.
🔻'Туда' is used with verbs of motion, such as идти (to go, come).

[ya by vas (ti-bya) pas-lal da vi-zhy vy (tu) at-tu-da]
🇬🇧 I'd send you (to hell), but I see you've just come from there.
⚠️ Mind that it is pretty offensive!
