1.What does it mean? Can you paraphrase it?
2.What words or phrases can 'go for the weekend' be replaced with?
Thanks. |

Thanks for your kind reply.
I'm still wondering what it means because 'visit her' in your reply makes me confused. In my example there is no clue for 'visit her' at all. Please be more specific!
Thanks. |

I don't understand exactly. So can you teach me once again?
Thanks. |

"Go for the weekend" by itself means that you will be somewhere other than your home for the weekend. Think of it as "go away for the weekend." Often it will mean that you are visiting somene, but it could mean that you are visiting a city (e.g., staying at a hotel) or maybe attending an event (e.g., a weekend-long music festival).
Does that answer your question? If not, please ask again. |
