GNU Make 3.80 on Windows 11

I have a list of files and a list of destinations. I need to write a rule that will copy each file to its corresponding destination (in a specified subdirectory). Note, there is no pattern to the filenames, they are manually maintained lists; the only requirement is that the files (in ADDFILES) exist.

Essentially, something like this (extra spacing for visual clarity):

ADDFILES = Makefile  ../Docs/test.log  images/screen.jpg
ASFILES  = Makefile  test.log          images/screen.jpg
DESTDIR  = Others/

$(addprefix $(DESTDIR),$(ASFILES)): $(ADDFILES)
    copy $< $@

Obviously, that rule does not work.

The results should be

copy Makefile          Others/Makefile
copy ../Docs/test.log  Others/test.log
copy images/screen.jpg Others/images/screen.jpg

I tried with no prerequisite and with $(ADDFILES) as the prerequisite.

With the prerequisite ($ADDFILES), $< is always the first word in the list (lower-cased for some reason). Without a prerequisite, $< is blank.

I am not terribly fluent in make. I have been searching, and coming close, but I can’t get this to work. Is it possible at all? Remember, I am running on Windows, with no *nix-type shell available.
