Abstract
This thesis is to put forward that jin+locative tends to include illocutionary meaning while qu+locative intends to exclude illocutionary meaning. The facts in the jin+locative show the obvious tendency of subjectivity while the facts in qu+locative have the tendency of objectiveness. The object in jin+locative is not necessarily specific but the object in qu+locative is often specific, at least, in the mind of the speaker. If the effect of context is not considered, the destination of the facts in jin+locative is unique while the destination of the facts in qu+locative is diverse. These differences are due to the resultant force between the degree of difficulty of directive verbs and the degree of subjectivity of locative object.
