对 (duì) vs 对于 (duìyú) vs 关于 (guānyú): "to, toward, about"
对 and 对于 both point to the target of an attitude or effect (对身体好 "good for health", 对历史感兴趣 "interested in history"). Wherever 对于 works, 对 also works—but only 对 can mark the person you speak or act toward (对我笑, 对他说). 关于 means "about / concerning" a topic and usually modifies a noun (关于中国的书) or sits at the very start of a sentence (关于这个问题,……).
