Etymology

The phrase 'go with' has been used in English language since the 14th century. It originates from Old English 'gฤn' which means 'to go' and 'wiรฐ' which means 'against'. Over time, the phrase evolved to mean 'to accompany' or 'to choose'. It is commonly used in everyday conversations to express agreement or decision-making.
