come/go

[wowenglish1]

I wonder if there is any difference between "1" and "2"
1. I'm coming with you.
2. I'm going with you.

If no, which is natural?
Mom: I'm going to the store. I'll be right back.
Son: I'm coming with you/I'm going with you.

Hi wowenglish1,

As a native speaker, I would use either in the example you quote.
However, there is a difference, but it is very subtle.
If I say I'm coming with you, I mean I am accompanying you to the store.
If I say I'm going with you, I mean we are both going to the store and we happen to be going together.
I know there doesn't seem to be any difference, but if we change "with you" to "without you", we can see there is.
I could easily say I am going without you, but I would never say I am coming without you.
Despite all that, use either - nobody will misunderstand you.
Hope this helps.

Hi there,
How about this?

Mary told Eve, 'I don't want to go to pub alone? (Would OR Could) you (come with me? OR go with me?')

Take your pick - all combinations are equally acceptable and understandable.
