Words that don't have "to" before a "place"
Hello,
In the following sentence, there seem to be 2 groups of "place words" that can be put
I have been ____ .
a. there
b. here
c. abroad
d. to Paris
e. to many countries
f. to the zoo.
The 2 groups are
1) those that don't need the word "to" (like in examples a, b, and c.)
2) those that need the word "to" (like in examples d, e, f)
Aside from the words "there", "here", and "abroad", what other words fit into group A ?

Can you give an example sentence using the word so? The example sentence should also indicate a place.
You also gave a summary. "It must be an adverb." I still need more than a summary. I would like an elaboration on this matter. Thank you.
