where did you go vs where were you go

The correct phrase is "where did you go?". The second phrase, "where were you go?", is incorrect because the verb "go" should be in the past tense to match the past tense question structure. The correct form uses the past tense of the verb "go" (went) with the auxiliary verb "did".
