2.4 To go
The verb å gå means to walk:
| Vi går til Fjordvik. We are walking to Fjordvik. |
In order to express that you are going somewhere, but not necessarily walking, you need to use another verb like å dra (to leave):
| Vi drar til Fjordvik. We are going to / leaving for Fjordvik (by any means of transport). |
In some contexts, å gå is also used for to go:
| Jeg går på norskkurs. I go to a Norwegian course. |
| Bussen går til Fjordvik. The bus goes to Fjordvik. |
We also use å gå in some other expressions:
| Hvordan går det? How are you? (Litt.: How does it go?) |
| Det går bra. I am fine. (Litt.: It goes well.) |
