Datapoint Diu Indo-Portuguese/Motion-to and motion-from

In Diu Indo-Portuguese, the goals of motion verbs are typically not case-marked at all (with very rare exceptions in which the prepositions nə 'in' or pe 'to' are used). Sources, on the other hand, must be marked with the ablative preposition də 'from'.
