文字稿
Welcome back to BBC Learning English! 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. So, 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.
 
用法总结
1. Come back
When you come back, you 'return to a place' or 'return here'. For example, you leave and return to the same place as when you say 'come back'.
