Lesson 5 of 20: Going places, the future, and โ€œI want to โ€ฆโ€

After today you will be able to:

  • say where youโ€™re going and how you get there
  • talk about tomorrow / next week / this summer
  • say โ€œI want to eat / drink / see / learn โ€ฆโ€
  • ask and give simple directions

1. The verb โ€œto goโ€ โ€“ ฯ€ฮฌฯ‰ (irregular but super common)

| ฮ•ฮณฯŽ ฯ€ฮฌฯ‰ | PAH-oh | I go / Iโ€™m going | | ฮ•ฯƒฯ ฯ€ฮฑฯ‚ | pas | you go | | ฮ‘ฯ…ฯ„ฯŒฯ‚/ฮ‘ฯ…ฯ„ฮฎ ฯ€ฮฌฮตฮน | PAH-ee | he/she goes | | ฮ•ฮผฮตฮฏฯ‚ ฯ€ฮฌฮผฮต | PAH-meh | we go | | ฮ•ฯƒฮตฮฏฯ‚ ฯ€ฮฌฯ„ฮต | PAH-teh | you (pl.) go | | ฮ‘ฯ…ฯ„ฮฟฮฏ ฯ€ฮฌฮฝฮต | PAH-neh | they go |
