Hi Aminath Nanmath,

I know the idiom "in full swing" = in full operation, at the highest level of activity, as in:

"After the strike it would be some time before production was in full swing."

It is logically to assume that "in a swing" should imply about "a steady, vigorous rhythm or movement"

to go with a swing = if an event, especially a party, goes with a swing, it is very exciting and successful.

"A traditional jazz band-now that would help your party go with a swing."

Regards.
