Can I connect a light switch from another switch?

Hello. I threw the wires on the ceiling, there is also a wire on the outlet. Tell me how to connect bulbs and a switch to them now. Nearby there is a switch with kitchen light, you can connect another double switch from this switch. Tell me how to do it better?

    It is not recommended to connect from another switch, since usually the terminals for connecting wires on the switches are not designed to branch another line. The new switch needs to be connected from the wiring - where exactly I can not say, because I do not know your wiring diagram. If a switch with a kitchen light is not far connected in a junction box, connect this switch to the same phase wire. Connect the phase wire from the wiring, from the switch two phase wires go to the lamp, and the neutral wire from the lamp must be connected in the same junction box where the phase was connected. The wiring diagrams are different everywhere - you can’t answer so easily without knowing the circuitry, where to connect.
