"want to go"

[Ze Dragonfly]

Hello there !

I'm a brand new member, and my very first question is not as simple as it seems. My english is quite good, but I need to improve because my new boyfriend is british .

This is what he wrote me : "I'll be off at 14 pm, after that, want to go !".

What is the meaning of this expression "want to go" when no intention is announced ? (such as "I want to go to see a movie" which is very clear to me).

Thank you in advance for your help. Have a nice day everybody

Welcome to the forums.

He is being very informal in expression. He could either mean it is as a question: "Want to go [party/to the cinema/out for a walk]?" or as "I want to get out of here".

I suggest you ask him to explain if he writes something that is obscure. Tell him you need to learn and he can help.

Well, my first idea was to translate it as "we'll see" or "I don't know", and I asked him to explain, but he's very busy today so I'm still waiting for an answer !

Anyway, I'll let you know what he really meant. We are here to learn, aren't we ?
