〜へ 行きます/来ます/帰ります (~e ikimasu / kimasu / kaerimasu) — go to / come to / return to a place

Movement verbs — the basic pattern for going, coming, and returning to a place.

Formula (सूत्र ढाँचा)

ばしょ destination
say "e"; direction
行きます go

Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)

In the 「〜へ」pattern, the particle へ marks the direction or destination of movement. It pairs with three key verbs: 行きます (ikimasu = go), 来ます (kimasu = come), and 帰ります (kaerimasu = return). Example: 学校へ行きます = "I go to school." Important note — the direction particle へ is pronounced "e" here, not "he".
