    Этимология

    () Middle English gon, from Old English gān, from Proto-Germanic *gānan (compare West Frisian gean, Dutch gaan, German gehen, Danish gå), from Proto-Indo-European *g̑ʰēh- 'to leave' (compare Albanian ngaj 'to run', Ancient Greek kikhānein 'to meet with, arrive at', Avestan zazāmi 'I leave off', Sanskrit jáhāti 'he leaves'). Inherited past tense forms (compare Old English ēode), however, have since the 15th century been replaced by forms from Old English wendan 'to go, depart, wend'; this process is called suppletion. * Detailed Wikipedia article on go’s etymology Go, along with do, make, and to a lesser extent other English verbs, is often used as a substitute verb for a verb used previously or one that is implied, in the same way a pronoun substitutes for a noun. For example: : Chris: Then he goes like this: (Chris waves arms around, implying the phrase means Then he moves his arms like this).
