Hmmm I was just in a building and I heard someone knocking on the door to outside, but theoretically no one else is in the building.

Duh, re-read what you just wrote.

You hear someone knocking on the door (to the outside).

It might not be clear for a non-native speaker, but there's no bug.

No I am saying someone was knocking from the inside on the door to the outside. When I am in there with no one else and I don't knock that shouldn't happen.

Why can you be sure that the knock was not from outside?

I thought it said something else when you hear a knock coming form outside. I thought it was when it said 'You hear someone knocking on the door to ________.' that it was going and I thought it said "you hear someone knocking on the door from ________."

I don't think that's the case.

hmmm it would make more sense =-\.

We thought, when someone was alone in a room, and they heard a knock, they would be able to tell that the knock came from the other side of the door, really. We call it common sense, not 'more sense'.

If the knock had come from your side of the door, you would have gotten something like: 'You see a man in his twenties knock on the door to...'.

'a man in his twenties says: "I need to talk to Trage."'
'You see a man in his twenties knocking on the door to Trages House.'
'You see Trage enter Location coming from Trages House.'
'Trage says: "GHOST! GHOSTT!!!"'

*sigh* As said in Scott Adam's book the Dilbert Principle, "Everyone has moments of idiocy."

Trage, no one is saying you're an idiot. It's just funny, that's all

The main thing, is, you asked about it, and you were merely told you were incorrect. Don't take offence to it, everyone makes mistakes.
