Yes, I know what you mean. I'm not sure about 'hither, thither, etc.', but I enjoy a good yonder now and then. Not really archaic, but nobody really uses it around here. It's also kind of fun to use 'strike' instead of 'hit'. When one friend hits another, they give you a very strange look when you shout "Do not strike him!".

I also get those funny looks when I watch the movies and sing along with Merry when he's at the Green Dragon."
