    you do know that “ikimasu” (actually “iku”) means “to go”, not “to do”, right?

      and you do know that the literal meaning changes to ‘to do’ depending on the context right?

      「行く」means “to go” and「いく」means “to do”. the only difference is the kanji. the second meaning is just kana.

        Wow. This was in the end quite a useful discussion. I had no idea about this either.
