"Hither and thither" -> nghĩa là đây đó, chỗ này, chỗ kia; khắp mọi nơi.

Ví dụ
Maybe it was the piles of antique furniture (đồ đạc, trang bị cổ xưa) strewn hither and thither; the mouldering books thumbed by so many past government agents; or the judge’s robe left on the old bench, but it felt like there had been.

I have become acquainted with my share of Mr. Magoos in our fair city. Perhaps he has crossed your path, too. The parking lot is one of Mr. Magoo’s favourite hangouts. He (or she, or a family with small children) doesn’t even look before crossing a lane. It’s as though the parking lot, with all of its cars hither and thither, has magically become a dewy meadow (bãi cỏ đẫm sương) that transcends time.

Maybe next time I meet Shankar at main gate I can enquire if there is any nerve travelling from lips to any significant part of the human anatomy (giải phẫu)? In your preoccupation with the exact topographical (phép đo vẽ địa hình) location of mole above lip, you must not ignore importance of what route the nerve is taking. Your future wife might well turn out to be famous brain surgeon (bác sĩ phẫu thuật) or stockmarket expert and I am not sure you want to risk losing such exciting possibilities by shifting the mole hither and thither like carrom coin.
