人と 行きます (hito to ikimasu) — go with (someone)
The particle 「と」— shows who you do something with.
Formula (सूत्र ढाँचा)
Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)
Meaning
- To say who you go with, put と after the person — Nepali "सँग", English "with".
- ともだちと行きます (I go with a friend), 母とスーパーへ行きます (I go to the supermarket with my mother).
Versus what you know
The と of Lesson 4 (and) and this と (with) are the same letter, but person + と + verb means "with".
Watch out
Going alone is ひとりで — with で, not と.
