Part 1: EIAM: Come back vs Go back

I'm Sam, and today we're looking at the difference between come back and go back

They both mean to return, but we use them differently

We use come back when we return here

For example, I am in the BBC building now

Tonight I will go home, and tomorrow I will come back here, like a full circle

We use go back to mean that we return there

For example, I am at work now, and tonight I will go back home

I am not at home now, but tonight I will go back, half the circle

So, please come back to BBC Learning English for more videos
