but, I do know COME to or GO away.
I'm GOING to the movies tonight. Right?
We are GOING to the movies tonight. Right?
If I booked some service calls and the boss wants to know what is happening, I would be correct to say the serviceman is GOING to see Mrs. Smith at 2pm
I'm here and you are there. I invite you to my house and I say "Come over"
Let's say, you cannot go out and instead, invite me. You say "Come over."
In both cases the person is GOING to meet the other person.
Expecting you to COME to my house, I call and ask your whereabouts it's incorrect to say "I'm coming to your house" because (from your perspective) you are GOING to my house.
Coming or going... got it?
Next blog I think I'll address the abbreviated spelling of etcetera again.
