• へ (e): to; toward

  In the sense indicating destination, the particles へ (e) and Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value) are often interchangeable, though there is a slight difference of connotation or emphasis. へ (e) emphasizes the journey to the destination, while Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value) emphasizes the arrival or entering it. The distinction is not quite the same as between English to and into; Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value) is usually best translated as to because Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value), unlike English into, can refer to the journey in addition to the arrival or entering the destination.
