There \There\, adv. [OE. ther, AS. [eth][=ae]r; akin to D. daar,
G. da, OHG. d[=a]r, Sw. & Dan. der, Icel. & Goth. [thorn]ar,
Skr. tarhi then, and E. that. [root]184. See {That}, pron.]

both bound together.'' --Shak.

8.
Note: In distinction from here, there usually signifies a
place farther off. ``Darkness there might well seem
twilight here.'' --Milton.

etc., regarded as a distinct place; as, he did not stop

Note: There is sometimes used by way of exclamation, calling
the attention to something, especially to something
distant; as, there, there! see there! look there! There
is often used as an expletive, and in this use, when it
introduces a sentence or clause, the verb precedes its
subject.

Note: There is much used in composition, and often has the
sense of a pronoun. See {Thereabout}, {Thereafter},
{Therefrom}, etc.
Note: There was formerly used in the sense of where.

--Chaucer.

Here \Here\, adv. [OE. her, AS. h?r; akin to OS. h?r, D. hier,

fr. root of E. he. See {He}.]
1. In this place; in the place where the speaker is; --
opposed to {there}.
He is not here, for he is risen. --Matt.
xxviii. 6.
2. In the present life or state.
Happy here, and more happy hereafter. --Bacon.

4. At this point of time, or of an argument; now.
The prisoner here made violent efforts to rise.
--Warren.
Note: Here, in the last sense, is sometimes used before a
verb without subject; as, Here goes, for Now (something
or somebody) goes; -- especially occurring thus in
drinking healths. ``Here's [a health] to thee, Dick.''
--Cowley.
{Here and there}, in one place and another; in a dispersed
manner; irregularly. ``Footsteps here and there.''
--Longfellow.
{It is neither, here nor there}, it is neither in this place
nor in that, neither in one place nor in another; hence,
it is to no purpose, irrelevant, nonsense.
