REMEMBER THIS
It's easier to remember go (to) should be followed by an
indefinite article + a noun (go to a restaurant/party/
concert), a definite article + a noun (go to the cinema/
theatre/ gym/zoo/bank) or a noun with no article (go
to work/school/ bed or go shopping) if you learn the
whole phrases rather than individual words.
