Привет!

Some time ago we talked about the verbs ‘едем’ and ‘едим’. Why not continue comparing verbs that look and sound alike? Today’s guests are ‘ходим’ (we walk/we go) and ‘хотим’ (we want).

So, let me give you some more examples:

• Мы ходим танцевать каждую пятницу!
• We go dancing every Friday!

• Мы хотим уехать жить на море.
• We want to leave this place to live by the sea.
