This frame covers 朝 vs 向 vs 往. 朝, 向 and 往 all point somewhere. Before a verb, for plain movement, they usually match. You can walk forward, or walk east, with any of the three. Everyday speech uses all three for real places., See the handout for full form and boundary.
This frame covers 对 vs 对于. 对 and 对于 both mean "towards" or "regarding". 对 is the flexible everyday word, and it can mark the person an action reaches. 对于 frames a topic or the object of an opinion. It sounds more formal, but formality is not a fixed noun list., See the handout for full form and boundary.
This frame covers 关于 vs 对于 vs 至于. 关于 names the subject matter. 对于 marks the target of a view or a feeling. 至于 turns to a new point once another point is settled. All three appear in speech. 对于 is the more formal one. 至于 is ordinary when you add a next item., See the handout for full form and boundary.
This frame covers 给 vs 为. 给 marks the recipient of a thing, a message or a call. 为 marks a beneficiary or a reason. You act for someone's sake, or you feel something because of them. Both are common in speech., See the handout for full form and boundary.
