- go doing smth- go swimming
- go skating•USAGE:(1.) Русскому глаголу ходить соответствуют английские to go и to walk. Глагол to go в этом значении относится к глаголам, которые не употребляются без обстоятельственных слов (обстоятельства места или образа действия) в отличие от глагола to walk, который этого не требует: to go slowly, to go there, to go there right away. Таким образом, русское словосочетание "Я люблю ходить" соответствует английскому I like walking: ребенок уже ходит the baby can walk; мы пойдем или поедем автобусом? shall we walk or go by bus. Если глагол to go употребляется без обстоятельств, то он обозначает уходить, покидать: it is already late and I must go поздно, и мне уже пора идти/уходить. (2.) В значении 2. посещать глагол to go сочетается с небольшой группой существительных, обозначающих регулярную деятельность человека: to go to school ходить в школу/посещать школу/учиться в школе; to go to college учиться в колледже; to go out to work ходить на работу/на службу/работать; to go to church ходить в церковь. В этих сочетаниях существительные употребляются без артикля. (3.) В значении 3. глагол to go образует оборот to be going to do smth - собираться/намереваться что-либо сделать и употребляется для выражения предсказуемого действия в будущем, по отношению к которому говорящий принял решение или имеет планы и намерения совершить это действие, в отличие от формы будущего (I will, I shall), которая такого предварительного решения не обозначает. I will do it предполагает готовность говорящего совершить это действие: He is tired of taking a bus every morning, so he is going to buy a car. That's exactly what I was going to say. ср. There is something wrong with the lock. Could you help me? - Certainly. I will try and fix it after dinner. Оборот to be going не употребляется в сочетании с глаголом to go: I am going to the South next week на следующей неделе я еду на юг. (4.) В значении 4. глагол to go относится к глаголам становления, обозначающим приобретение какого-либо отрицательного качества, и употребляется с небольшой группой градуальных прилагательных: to go blind (deaf) слепнуть (глохнуть); to go bad портиться/тухнуть. (5.) В значении 5. глагол to go употребляется с последующим глаголом в форме герундия: to go boating поехать кататься на лодке; to go skiing поехать кататься на коньках. (6.) For go 1.; See come, v (7.) For go 4., 6.; See become, v -
