| near | far | query | |
| static | here | there | where |
| to | hither | thither | whither |
| from | hence | thence | whence |
Archaic usage indicates movement by both the
adverb and the verb:
Whence comest thou? Whither goest thou?
Modern usage uses only the static adverb,
indicating movement by the verb alone:
Where did you come from? Where are you going?
