to, towards (the direction or goal of a physical movement) · towards (the way a thing is turned) · to, until (the upper limit)
köken: From Old Norse til, from Proto-Germanic *tilą (“goal”), cognate with Swedish till (“to”), English till, German Ziel n (“goal”). The preposition has arisen from an adverbial use of the noun, lit. "(with) the goal of something". In Old Norse, the preposition governs the genitive, a usage which is preserved in certain fixed phrases in Danish.
aile: til bens, til blods, til bords, til bunds, til dags, til dels, til doms, til fals, til fods, til freds
