 This is rather sloppy thinking to my view.  TKD does NOT say that it means
 "to."  It is LOCATIVE, and can mean "to" if that "to" is locative, but it
 is obviously not a parallel to "to" in "pay attention to."

Please note, Marian = qoror, that you agree completely with me.  We do NOT
have differing views here.  I was pointing out how "to" is not covered by
{-Daq} in the above sentence.
