the verbs "chodzić" and "iść"

Post by MoniqueMaRie »

"chodzić" or "iść"

I am sure there was a discussion in duolingo explaning when to use which one of the both - in what context

But I don't remember it and I couldn't find it.

Can someone explain the difference or offer a link to the discussion?

[mention]MoniqueMaRie[/mention], chodzić is for actions that occur multiple times, iść is for actions that are occurring once.

Chodzę do siłowni trzy razy w tygodniu. = I go to the gym three times a week.
Teraz idę do siłowni. = Now I'm going to the gym.

Also, learn the expression of “o co chodzi” = “what is it about”, “what is going on”, “what’s the matter”.

Hi,[mention]MoniqueMaRie[/mention]!

Iść means simply to go on foot or to walk.

We are walking to the park - Idziemy do parku. (idziemy - right now, in this moment)

We always walk to the park - Zawsze chodzimy do parku. ( chodzimy - usually, sometimes )

I am sending you this link because it fully explains "Polish Verbs of Motion":
